1.1 Basic information concerning safety

In addition to the information relevant to safety given

in each of the sections of these operating instructions,

the following points must be strictly observed at all

times.

1.1.1 Using cartridges

Use only Hilti cartridges or cartridges of equivalent

quality.

Use of cartridges of inferior quality in Hilti tools may lead

to a build-up of unburned powder, which may explode

and cause sever injuries to operators and bystanders.

Cartridges must fulfill one of the following minimum re-

quirements:

a) The applicable manufacturer must be able to verify

successful testing in accordance with the EU stan-

dard EN 16264 or

b) The cartridges must bear the CE conformity mark

(mandatory in the EU as of July 2013).

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 designa-

tion, the name of the certification authority and the system

test number are printed on the cartridge packaging.

Please refer to the packaging example at:

www.hilti.com/dx-cartridges

1.1.2 Requirements to be met by users

Never attempt to use the tool without first receiving

proper instruction on its use and observance of the

associated safety precautions.Contact your local Hilti

representative for assistance.

1.1.3 Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a direct fastening

tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influ-

ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. Amomentof

inattention while operating tools may result in serious

personal injury.

b) Avoid unfavorable body positions. Make sure you

work from a safe stance and stay in balance at all

times.

c) Never point the tool toward yourself or other per-

sons.

d) Never press the nosepiece of the tool against your

hand or against any other part of your body (or

other person’s hand or part of their body).

e) Keep other persons, especially children, away

from the area in which the work is being carried

out.

f) Keep the arms slightly bent while operating the

tool (do not straighten the arms). Stop using the

tool immediately if you experience pain or dis-

comfort.

1.1.4 Use and care of powder-actuated fastening

tools

a) Use the right tool for the job. Do not use the tool

for purposes for which it was not intended. Use it

only as directed and when in faultless condition.

b) Always hold the tool securely with both hands on

the grip provided. Do not hold the exposed metal

pole of the extensions. This may cause the tool to

malfunction.

c) Press the tool against the working surface at right

angles.

d) Never leave a loaded tool unattended.

e) Always unload the tool (remove cartridges and

fasteners) before cleaning, before maintenance,

before work breaks and before storing the tool.

f) Check the tool and its accessories for any dam-

age. Guards, safety devices and any slightly worn

parts must be checked carefully to ensure that

they function faultlessly and as intended. Check

that moving parts function correctly without stick-

ing and that no parts are damaged. All parts must

be fitted correctly and fulfill all conditions neces-

sary for correct operation of the tool. Damaged

guards, safety devices and other parts must be

repaired or replaced properly at a Hilti service

center unless otherwise indicated in the operat-

ing instructions.

g) Always hold the tool securely and at right angles

to the working surface when driving in fasteners.

This will help to prevent fasteners being deflected

by the working surface.

h) Never use a fastener twice.

i) Never redrive a fastener. This may cause the fas-

tener to break and the tool may jam.

j) Never drive fasteners into existing holes unless

this is recommended by Hilti.

k) Always observe the application guidelines, in-

cluding the minimum thickness of the base ma-

terial, fastener spacing and the minimum edge

distances.

l) Use the spall guard when the application permits.

m) Never pull the fastener guide back by hand as

this could, under certain circumstances, make

the tool ready to fire. This could cause a fastener

or the piston to be driven into a part of the body.

n) Donotdismantlethetoolwhileitishot.

o) The applicable national regulations, especially

those concerning accident prevention, must be

observed.

1.1.5 Work area safety

a) Ensure that the workplace is well lit.

b) Operate the tool only in well-ventilated working

areas.

c) Do not attempt to drive fasteners into unsuitable

materials. Materials that are too hard, e.g. welded

steel and cast iron. Materials that are too soft, e.g.

wood and drywall panel (gypsum board). Materials

that are too brittle, e.g. glass and ceramic tiles. Other

unsuitable materials include: Glass, marble, plastic,

bronze, brass, copper, rock, insulating material, hol-

low brick, ceramic tiles, thin sheet metal (< 4 mm)

and cellular concrete. Driving a fastener into these

materials may cause the fastener to break, shatter or

to be driven right through.

d) Do not use the tool on surfaces with a fire pro-

tection coating thicker than 12 mm (½").

Using the

tool on surfaces with a fire protection coating may

cause the tool to malfunction.

e) Before driving fasteners, check that no one is

present immediately behind the working surface.

f) Keep the workplace tidy. Objects which could

cause injury should be removed from the work-

ing area. Untidiness at the workplace can lead to

accidents.

g) Keep the grip section and grip clean, dry and free

from oil and grease.

h) Wear non-skid shoes.

i) Take the influences of the surrounding area into

account. Do not expose the tool to rain or snow.

Do not use the tool where there is a risk of fire or

explosion.

1.1.6 Mechanical safety precautions

a) Select the correct fastener guide and fastener

combination for the job on hand. Failure to use

the correct combination of these items may result

in injury or cause damage to the tool and/or lead to

unsatisfactory fastening quality.

b) Use only fasteners of a type approved for use with

the tool.

c) Do not use a worn or damaged piston or piston

brake. Do not tamper with or modify the piston.

1.1.7 Thermal safety precautions

a) If the tool has overheated, allow it to cool down.

3 Description

3.1 Use of the product as directed

The Hilti DX 351‑CT is a powder-actuated tool designed

for driving nails into concrete, steel and other materi-

als suitable for DX fastening (see Fastening Technology

Manual).

The tool utilizes a captive piston to provide optimum

functional reliability and working safety. The tool features

automatic piston return and cartridge transport powered

by gas pressure resulting from operation of the tool. Nails

of up to 37 mm in length can thus be driven very quickly

and efficiently.

As with all powder-actuated fastening tools, the tool, the

fastener guide, the grip, the fasteners and the cartridges

form a single “technical unit”. This means that trouble-

free fastening with this system can be assured only if

fasteners and cartridges specially manufactured for it, or

products of equivalent quality, are used. The fastening

and application recommendations given by Hilti apply

only when these conditions are observed.

The tool is designed for professional use and may be

operated, serviced and maintained only by trained, au-

thorized personnel. This personnel must be informed of

any special hazards that may be encountered. The tool

and its ancillary equipment may present hazards when

used incorrectly by untrained personnel or when used

not as directed.

To avoid the risk of injury use only genuine Hilti fasten-

ers, cartridges, accessories and spare parts or those of

equivalent quality.

Modification of the tool is not permissible.

3.2 Through-shot and ricochet safety device

As a result of the piston principle, the DX 351-CT is

classified as a low-velocity tool. Most excess driving

energy is dissipated inside the tool.

3.3 Drop-firing safety device

The drop-firing safety device is the result of coupling the

firing mechanism with the cocking movement. This helps

prevent the tool firing when dropped onto a hard surface,

no matter at which angle the impact occurs.

3.4 Trigger safety device

The trigger safety device prevents the tool firing when

only the trigger is pulled. The tool can be fired only when

it is pushed fully against the working surface, pointing

upwards, and the grip pressed.

3.5 Contact pressure safety device

The contact pressure safety device prevents the tool firing

unless it is firmly pressed against a surface. The tool can

be fired only when pressed fully against a surface with a

force of at least 140 N.

3.6 Gravitation safety device

The gravitation safety device prevents the tool firing when

in a horizontal position or when pointing toward the floor.

The tool can be fired only when it is pointing upwards.
