parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Hammer safety warnings
Safety instructions for all operations
▶
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
▶
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
▶
Hold the power tool 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 power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.

Personal safety
▶
Use the product and accessories only when they are in perfect working order.
▶
Never tamper with or modify the product or accessories in any way.
▶
When chiseling into ceilings, walls and floors, always make sure that you have a safe and firm
stance. A sudden break-through can affect your balance!
▶
Apply appropriate safety measures at the opposite side of the workpiece in work that involves
breaking through. Parts breaking away could fall out and / or fall down causing injury to other
persons.
▶
You and any other persons in the vicinity must wear suitable eye protection, a hard hat, ear
protection, protective gloves and respiratory protection while the tool is in use.
▶
Wear protective gloves when changing the accessory tool. Touching the accessory tool can result
in cuts and burns.
▶
Wear eye protection. Flying fragments present a risk of injury to the body and eyes.
▶
Dust produced by grinding, sanding, cutting and drilling can contain dangerous chemicals. Some
examples are: lead or lead-based paints; brick, concrete and other masonry products, natural
stone and other products containing silicates; certain types of wood, such as oak, beech and
chemically treated wood; asbestos or materials that contain asbestos. Determine the exposure of
the operator and bystanders by means of the hazard classification of the materials to be worked.
Implement the necessary measures to restrict exposure to a safe level, for example by the use of a
dust collection system or by the wearing of suitable respiratory protection. The general measures
for reducing exposure include:
▶
working in an area that is well ventilated,
▶
avoidance of prolonged contact with dust,
▶
directing dust away from the face and body,
▶
wearing protective clothing and washing exposed areas of the skin with water and soap.
▶
Take frequent breaks and do physical exercises to improve the blood circulation in your fingers.
High vibration during long periods of work can lead to disorders of the blood vessels and nervous
system in the fingers, hands and wrists.
Electrical safety
▶
Before beginning work, check the working area for concealed electric cables or gas and water
pipes. External metal parts of the product could give you an electric shock or cause an explosion
if you accidentally damage an electric cable or a gas or water pipe.
Power tool use and care
