The Hilti AG 230-24D is a professional-grade, hand-held electric angle grinder designed for cutting and grinding metal and mineral materials. It is intended for dry use only. This manual provides essential safety, operation, and maintenance instructions.
Product Overview
Key components include the spindle lock button, side handle, on/off switch, safety trigger, and guard. The tool features electronic starting current limitation, constant-speed electronics, and Active Torque Control (ATC) to prevent stalling.
Safety Instructions
General Safety: Always wear eye protection and appropriate PPE. Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Do not operate in explosive atmospheres. Ensure the power plug matches the outlet.
Grinding and Cutting Safety: Use only recommended accessories. Ensure the guard is correctly positioned to protect the operator from flying debris. Do not use damaged discs. Always maintain a firm grip and use the side handle.
Operation
Mounting the Side Handle: Screw the side handle into one of the provided threaded bushings.
Mounting the Guard: Release the clamping lever, position the guard on the spindle collar, rotate to the desired position, and secure by closing the lever.
Mounting Accessory Tools: Ensure the power cord is unplugged. Clean the clamping flange and nut. Check the O-ring for damage. Place the flange on the spindle, mount the accessory, and secure with the clamping nut or Kwik lock nut. Use the pin wrench to tighten standard nuts.
Care and Maintenance
Regularly clean the ventilation slots with a dry brush. Keep the tool, especially grip surfaces, dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Do not use silicone-based cleaning agents. Repairs to electrical components must be performed by trained electrical specialists.
Troubleshooting
If the tool does not start, check the power supply, cable, and plug. If the tool is overloaded, release the switch and allow it to run under no load for approximately 30 seconds. If the ATC system malfunctions, have the tool checked by Hilti Service.
