Safety and operating instructions
The following may help to reduce exposure to
vibration for the operator:
► Let the tool do the job. Use a minimum hand grip
consistent with proper control and safe operation.
► When the percussion mechanism is activated, the
only body contact with the machine you should
have is your hands on the handle. Avoid any
other contact, e.g. supporting any part of the body
against the machine or leaning onto the machine
trying to increase the feed force. It is also important
not to keep the trigger engaged while extracting
the tool from the work surface.
► Make sure that the working tool is well-maintained,
not worn out, and of the proper size. Working tools
that are not well-maintained, or that are worn out,
or that are not of the proper size result in longer
time to complete a task (and a longer period
of exposure to vibration) and may result in or
contribute to higher levels of vibration exposure.
► Immediately stop working if the machine suddenly
starts to vibrate strongly. Before resuming the
work, find and remove the cause of the increased
vibrations.
► Comply with the recommended air-pressure when
operating the machine. Either higher or lower air-
pressure has the potential of resulting in higher
levels of vibration.
► Do not grab, hold or touch the inserted working tool
when using the machine.
► Participate in health surveillance or monitoring,
medical exams, and training programs offered by
your employer and when required by law.
See the "Noise & Vibration Declaration Statement"
for the machine, found at the end of these Safety and
Operating instructions.
