1. Safety precautions

1.1 Basic safety instructions

In addition to the safety precautions listed in the indi-

vidual sections of these operating instructions, the

following points must be strictly observed at all times.

1.2 Only use Hilti cartridges or cartridges of equiva-

lent quality

The use of cartridges of inferior quality in Hilti tools may

lead to build-up of unburned powder, which may explo-

de and cause severe injuries to operators and bystan-

ders. At a minimum, cartridges must either:

a) Be confirmed by their supplier to have been suc-

cessfully tested in accordance with EU standard EN

16264

NOTE:

● All Hilti cartridges for powder-actuated tools have

been tested successfully in accordance with EN 16264.

● The tests defined in the EN 16264 standard are system

tests carried out by the certification authority using

specific combinations of cartridges and tools.

The tool designation, the name of the certification aut-

hority and the system test number are printed on the

cartridge packaging.

or

b) Carry the CE conformity mark (mandatory in the EU

as of July 2013).

See packaging sample at:

www.hilti.com/dx-cartridges

1.3 Use as intended

The tool is designed for professional use in fastening

applications in construction where nails, threaded studs

and composite fasteners are driven into concrete, steel

and sand-lime block masonry.

1.4 Improper use

● Manipulation or modification of the tool is not per-

missible.

● Do not operate the tool in an explosive or flammable

atmosphere, unless the tool is specially approved for

such use.

● To avoid the risk of injury, use only original Hilti fas-

teners, cartridges, accessories and spare parts or those

of equivalent quality.

are to be driven.

● Keep the grip dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

1.7 General safety precautions

● Operate the tool only as directed and only when it is

in faultless condition.

● If a cartridge misfires or fails to ignite, proceed as fol-

lows:

1. Keep the tool pressed against the working surface for

30 seconds.

2. If the cartridge still fails to fire, withdraw the tool from

the working surface, taking care that it is not pointed

towards your body or bystanders.

3. Manually advance the cartridge strip one cartridge.

Use up the remaining cartridges on the strip. Remove

the used cartridge strip and dispose of it in such a

way that it can be neither reused nor misused.

● If 2–3 cartridge misfires occur in succession (with-

out clearly audible noise of the cartridge firing and the

fastener being driven with significantly less power), pro-

ceed as follows:

1. Stop using the tool immediately.

2. Unload and disassemble the tool (see 8.3).

3. Check that the correct combination of fastener

guide, piston and fastener are used (see 6.2).

4. Check the buffer, piston and fastener guide for wear

and replace the parts if necessary (see 8.4).

5. Clean the tool.

6. Do not continue to use the tool if the problem per-

sists after carrying out the steps described above.

Have the tool checked and repaired if necessary at

a Hilti repair center.

● Never attempt to pry a cartridge from the magazine

strip or the tool.

● Keep the arms flexed when the tool is fired (do not

straighten the arms).

● Never leave the loaded tool unattended.

● Always unload the tool before beginning cleaning,

servicing or changing parts and before storage.

● Unused cartridges and tools not presently in use

must be stored in a place where they are not exposed

to humidity or excessive heat. The tool should be trans-

ported and stored in a toolbox that can be locked or

secured to prevent use by unauthorized persons.

3. Description

The tool is designed for professional use in fastening

applications where nails, threaded studs and compo site

fasteners are driven into concrete, steel and sand-lime

block masonry.

The tool works on the well-proven piston principle and

is therefore not related to high-velocity tools. The pis-

ton principle provides an optimum of working and fas-

tening safety. The tool works with cartridges of 6.8/11

caliber.

The piston is returned to the starting position and the

cartridges are fed to the firing chamber automatically

by gas pressure from the fired cartridge. This permits

fastenings to be made very quickly and economically

with nails and threaded studs.

As with all powder-actuated tools, the tool, fastener pro-

gram and cartridge program form a “technical unit”.

This means that optimal fastening with this system can

only be assured if the fasteners and cartridges are

specially manufactured for it, or products of equivalent

quality, are used. The fastening and application recom-

mendations given by Hilti are only applicable if these

conditions are observed.

The tool features 5-way safety – for the safety of the

operator and bystanders.

The piston principle

The energy from the propellant charge is transferred to

a piston, the accelerated mass of which drives the fastener

into the base material. As approximately 95 % of the

kinetic energy is absorbed by the piston, the fastener is

driven into the base material at much reduced velocity

(less than 100 m/sec.) in a controlled manner. The dri-

ving process ends when the piston reaches the end of

its travel. This makes dangerous through-shots virtual-

ly impossible when the tool is used correctly.

The drop-firing safety device is the result of coupling

the firing mechanism with the cocking movement. This

prevents the Hilti DX tool from firing when it is dropped

onto a hard surface, no matter at which angle the impact

occurs.

The trigger safety device ensures that the cartridge

cannot be fired simply by pulling the trigger only. The

tool can be fired only when pressed against the work

surface.

The contact pressure safety device requires the tool

to be pressed against the work surface with a signifi-

2.1 Signal words and their meaning

WARNING

The word WARNING is used to draw attention to a poten-

tially dangerous situation which could lead to severe

personal injury or death.

CAUTION

The word CAUTION is used to draw attention to a poten-

tially dangerous situation which could lead to minor per-

sonal injury or damage to the equipment or other prop-

erty.

2.2 Pictograms

 The numbers refer to the illustrations. The illustra-

tions can be found on the fold-out cover pages. Keep

these pages open while you read the operating instruc-

tions.

In these operating instructions, the designation “the

tool” always refers to the DX460GR powder-actuated

tool.

Location of identification data on the tool

cant force. The tool can be fired only when pressed ful-

ly against the work surface in this way.

In addition, all Hilti DX tools are equipped with an unin-

tentional firing safety device . This prevents the tool

from firing if the trigger is pulled and the tool then pressed

against the work surface. The tool can be fired only when

it is first pressed (1.) against the work surface correct-

ly and the trigger then pulled (2.).

ating.

■ You could burn your hands.

■ Do not disassemble the tool while

it is hot. Let the tool cool down.

8. Care and maintenance

When this type of tool is used under normal operating

conditions, dirt and residues build up inside the tool

and functionally relevant parts are also subject to wear.

Regular inspections and maintenance are thus essen-

tial in order to ensure reliable operation. We recom-

mend that the tool is cleaned and the piston and piston

brake are checked at least weekly when the tool is sub-

jected to intensive use, and at the latest after driving

10,000 fasteners.

8.1 Care of the tool

The outer casing of the tool is manufactured from impact-

resistant plastic. The grip comprises a synthetic rubber

section.

The ventilation slots must be unobstructed and kept

clean at all times. Do not permit foreign objects to enter

the interior of the tool. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean

the outside of the tool at regular intervals. Do not use a

spray or steam-cleaning system for cleaning.

8.2 Maintenance

Check all external parts of the tool for damage at regu-

lar intervals and check that all controls operate proper-

ly. Do not operate the tool when parts are damaged or

when the controls do not operate properly. If necessary,

have the tool repaired at a Hilti service centre.

Servicing the tool

The tool should be serviced if:

1. Cartridges misfire

2. Fastener driving power is inconsistent

3. If you notice that:

● contact pressure increases,

● trigger force increases,

● power regulation is difficult to adjust (stiff),

● the cartridge strip is difficult to remove.

CAUTION while cleaning the tool:

● Never use grease for maintenance/lubrication of tool

parts. This may strongly affect the functionality of the

tool. Use only Hilti spray or such of equivalent quality.

● Dirt from DX tool contains substances that could be

endangering your health.

– Do not breath in the dust from cleaning

– Keep dust away from food

– Wash your hands after cleaning the tool
