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.

common sense when operating a direct fastening
tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influ-
