• Risk of personal injury due to flyingparticles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
duringoperation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolongeduse.
Residual Risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of hammers:
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment ofhearing.
• Risk of squeezing fingers when changing theaccessory.
• Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
working in concrete and/ormasonry.
Additional Safety Instructions for Chipping
Hammers
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
hearingloss.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personalinjury.
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the tool “live” and could give the operator an
electricshock.
• Be certain that the material being drilled does not conceal
electric or gas service and that their locations have been
verified with the utilitycompanies.
• Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not attempt
to operate this tool without holding it with both hands.
Operating this tool with one hand will result in loss of control.
Breaking through or encountering hard materials such as
re-bar may be hazardous as well. Tighten the side handle
securely beforeuse.
• Ensure the chisel is secured in place before operating thetool.
• In cold-weather conditions or when the tool has not been used
for a longer period of time, let the tool run with no load for
several minutes beforeuse.
• When working above ground level ensure the area below
isclear.
• Do not touch the chisel or the parts close to the chisel
immediately after operation, as they may be extremely hot
and cause burns to theskin.
• Always direct the power cable to the rear, away from
thechisel.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
Vibration caused by hammer action may be harmful to your
hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit
exposure by taking frequent restperiods.
