2.1 Safety instructions
The safety instructions given in the following section contain all the general safety instructions for power
tools which are to be listed in the operating instructions in accordance with the applicable standards. As a
result, some of the instructions listed may not be relevant to this tool.
2.1.1 General power tool safety warnings
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
▶ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
▶ Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
▶ Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Electrical safety
▶ Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
▶ Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
▶ Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
▶ Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
▶ When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
▶ If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
▶ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Printed: 24.08.2016 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5269973 / 000 / 02
English 3
▶ Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
▶ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off‐position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
▶ Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
▶ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
▶ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
▶ If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power tool use and care
▶ Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
▶ Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
▶ Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
▶ Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
▶ Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
▶ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
▶ Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
▶ Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
▶ Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
▶ When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
▶ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
▶ Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
2.1.2 Tacker safety warnings
▶ Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Careless handling of the fastening tool can result in
unexpected firing of nails causing personal injury.
▶ Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone nearby. A nail will be ejected by the tool if it is
triggered unexpectedly, possibly leading to injury.
▶ Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in
contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected away from your target.
▶ Disconnect the tool from the power source when the fastener jams in the tool. While removing a
jammed fastener, the fastening tool may be accidentally activated if it is plugged in.
▶ Use caution while removing a jammed fastener. The mechanism may be under tension and the nail
may be forcefully ejected while attempting to free a jam.

steel. Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions, incorrectly driven
fasteners or breakage of fasteners.
▶ Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too soft, such as wood or plasterboard.
Attempting to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions and fasteners being driven
incorrectly or driven right through the material.
▶ Do not attempt to drive fasteners into materials that are too brittle, such as glass or tiles. Attempting
to drive fasteners into these materials may lead to malfunctions, fasteners being driven incorrectly and
may cause the material to shatter.
▶ Before driving fasteners, check that there is no risk of injuring persons or of damaging objects
present behind or below the workpiece.
▶ Keep the grips dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
▶ Dust from materials such as paint containing lead, some types of wood, concrete, masonry and stone
containing quartz, as well as minerals and metals, may present health risks. Contact with or inhalation of
the dust may cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory or other diseases among operators or bystanders.
Certain kinds of dust such as oak and beech wood dust are classified as carcinogenic, especially in
conjunction with additives for wood conditioning (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing
asbestos may be handled only by specialists. Use a dust-extraction device wherever possible. When
indicated, wear a respirator appropriate for the type of dust generated. Ensure that the workplace
is well ventilated. Follow national requirements for the materials you want to work with.

3.2 Intended use
The product is a hand-held, battery-operated fastening tool for indoor use. It is designed to drive specially-
manufactured fasteners (nails) into concrete, steel, masonry, sand-lime block and other materials suitable
for use of the direct fastening technique. The product is also designed to fasten electrical cables with clips
Printed: 24.08.2016 | Doc-Nr: PUB / 5269973 / 000 / 02
6 English
if the appropriate fasteners are used. Use only approved fasteners in conjunction with the fastener guide
designed for use with these specific fasteners (see “Technical data” section).
The fastening tool, battery and fasteners form a single technical unit. This means that trouble-free fastening
can be ensured with this fastening tool only when it is used in conjunction with the Hilti fasteners specially
designed and manufactured for it and with the batteries and chargers recommended by Hilti. The fastening
and application recommendations made by Hilti apply only when this condition is observed.
▶ The fastening tool is for hand-held use only.
▶ Misuse of the fastening tool must be ruled out. Misuse of the fastening tool includes triggering in
single-fastener mode without a nail inserted in the fastener guide, driving nails into very soft materials
(e.g. wood), driving single nails when the tool is set up for magazine operation, and driving nails into
materials that are too hard (e.g. high-strength steel or very hard natural stone).
▶ Use only Hilti Liion batteries of the B 18 series with this product.
▶ Use only Hilti battery chargers of the C 4/36 series to charge these batteries.
3.3 Safety devices
When using the nail magazine, the nail detection feature prevents triggering without a nail loaded, which
could damage the fastening tool.
The contact pressure safety device is intended to prevent the free flighting of nails (i.e. actuation and driving
a nail when the nosepiece is not in contact with the workpiece). When using a nail magazine, the tool can be
pressed against the surface and triggered only when a nail is loaded in the tool.
To use the tool in single-fastener mode, the single-fastener mode switch must be pressed before the
fastening tool is pressed against the working surface.
3.4 Features
The fastening tool is fitted with an ergonomic, non-slip and vibration-damped grip along with a support arm
with tool hook. The tool is protected from overloading by electronic overload protection and from overheating
by temperature monitoring.
3.5 Status indicator
The status indicator provides information about the status of the fastening tool.

2 Sécurité
2.1 Consignes de sécurité
Les indications de sécurité du chapitre suivant contiennent toutes les indications générales de sécurité
pour les outils électriques qui, selon les normes applicables, doivent être spécifiées dans le présent mode
d'emploi. Par conséquent, il est possible que certaines indications ne se rapportent pas à cet appareil.
2.1.1 Indications générales de sécurité pour les outils électriques
AVERTISSEMENT Lire et comprendre toutes les consignes de sécurité et instructions. Tout
manquement à l'observation des consignes de sécurité et instructions risque de provoquer une électrocution,
un incendie et/ou de graves blessures.
Les consignes de sécurité et instructions doivent être intégralement conservées pour les utilisations
futures.
La notion d'« outil électroportatif » mentionnée dans les consignes de sécurité se rapporte à des outils
électriques raccordés au secteur (avec câble de raccordement) et à des outils électriques sur accu (sans
câble de raccordement).
Sécurité sur le lieu de travail
▶ Conserver la zone de travail propre et bien éclairée. Un lieu de travail en désordre ou mal éclairé
augmente le risque d'accidents.
▶ Ne pas faire fonctionner les outils électriques en atmosphère explosive et où se trouvent des
liquides, des gaz ou poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques produisent des étincelles qui
peuvent enflammer les poussières ou les fumées.
▶ Maintenir les enfants et les personnes présentes à l'écart pendant l'utilisation de l'outil électro-
portatif. En cas d'inattention il y a risque de perdre le contrôle de l'appareil.
Sécurité relative au système électrique
▶ La fiche de secteur de l'outil électroportatif doit être adaptée à la prise de courant. Ne jamais
modifier la fiche de quelque façon que ce soit. Ne pas utiliser d'adaptateurs avec des outils
électriques à branchement de terre. Des fiches non modifiées et des prises de courant adaptées
réduiront le risque de choc électrique.
▶
Éviter le contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre tels que tuyaux, radiateurs, cuisinières
et réfrigérateurs. Il y a un risque élevé de choc électrique au cas où votre corps serait relié à la terre.
▶ Ne pas exposer les outils électroportatifs à la pluie ou à l'humidité. La pénétration d'eau à l'intérieur
d'un outil électroportatif augmentera le risque d'un choc électrique.
▶ Ne jamais utiliser le cordon à d'autres fins que celles prévues, telles que pour porter, accrocher ou
débrancher l'outil électroportatif de la prise de courant. Maintenir le cordon à l'écart de la chaleur,
des parties grasses, des bords tranchants ou des parties de l'appareil en mouvement. Des cordons
endommagés ou emmêlés augmentent le risque de choc électrique.
