Safety instructions for hammers
 Wear ear defenders. The effect of noise
may result in loss of hearing.
 Use auxiliary handles supplied with
the power tool. The loss of control may
result in injuries.
 Hold the power tool by the 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
power tool "live" and shock the operator.
 Do not open the battery. Short-circuiting
hazard!
 Protect the battery against heat,
including prolonged sunshine, fire, water
and moisture. Explosion hazard!
 A damaged or incorrectly used battery may
result in the emission of fumes. Ensure
a supply of fresh air and consult a doctor in
the event of any physical complications.
