2.5 Additional safety instructions
▶ Before starting measuring work, make sure that the accuracy of the measuring tools used is adequate
for the requirements of the task.
▶ When a tripod or wall mount is used, make sure that the measuring tool is correctly and securely mounted
and that the tripod is standing firmly on solid ground.
▶ As a precaution, check the previous settings or any adjustments you may have made.
▶ Fasten the battery compartment cover carefully so that the battery doesn't fall out. If battery contact is
lost the PLT 400 will switch itself off, possibly leading to loss of data.
▶ Operation of the measuring tool in the vicinity of military installations, airports or radio astronomy facilities
is not permissible unless prior permission has been obtained.
▶ When switching distance measuring mode from prism measurement to reflectorless measurement, make
sure that no one can look into the lens of the PLT 400.
▶ Do not point the PLT 400 or accessories toward the sun or other powerful light sources.
▶ Measurements to plastic foam surfaces, e.g. polystyrene foam, to snow or to highly reflective surfaces,
etc. may result in incorrect readings.
▶ Measurements taken to surfaces with low reflectivity in highly reflective surroundings may be inaccurate.
▶ Use of setting-up / adjusting devices and equipment or operating procedures other than those specified
in these instructions may lead to exposure to hazardous radiation.
▶ Always observe the operating instructions and warnings given in the applications displayed.
2.6 Careful handling and use of batteries
▶ Comply with the following safety instructions for the safe handling and use of Li-ion batteries.
Failure to comply can lead to skin irritation, severe corrosive injury, chemical burns, fire and/or explosion.
▶ Use only batteries that are in perfect working order.
▶ Treat batteries with care in order to avoid damage and prevent leakage of fluids that are extremely
harmful to health!
▶ Do not under any circumstances modify or tamper with batteries!
▶ Do not disassemble, crush or incinerate batteries and do not subject them to temperatures over 80 °C
(176 °F).
▶ Never use or charge a battery that has suffered an impact or been damaged in any other way. Check
your batteries regularly for signs of damage.
▶ Never use recycled or repaired batteries.
▶ Never use the battery or a battery-operated power tool as a striking tool.
▶ Never expose batteries to the direct rays of the sun, elevated temperature, sparking, or open flame. This
can lead to explosions.
▶ Do not touch the battery poles with your fingers, tools, jewelry, or other electrically conductive objects.
This can damage the battery and also cause material damage and personal injury.
▶ Keep batteries away from rain, moisture and liquids. Penetrating moisture can cause short circuits,
electric shock, burns, fire and explosions.
▶ Use only chargers and power tools approved for the specific battery type. Read and follow the relevant
operating instructions.
▶ Do not use or store the battery in explosive environments.
▶ If the battery is too hot to touch, it may be defective. Put the battery in a place where it is clearly visible
and where there is no risk of fire, at an adequate distance from flammable materials. Allow the battery to
cool down. If it is still too hot to touch after an hour, the battery is faulty. Consult Hilti Service or read the
document entitled "Instructions on safety and use for Hilti Li-ion batteries".
Observe the special guidelines applicable to the transport, storage and use of lithium-ion batteries.
