Additional Safety Instructions for Rotary Hammers
•
Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and
shock the operator.
•
Wear ear protectors.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
•
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
• 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.
• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece
to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
•
Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
Hammering operations cause
chips to fly. Flying particles can cause permanent eye damage. Wear a dust
mask or respirator for applications that generate dust. Ear protection may be
required for most applications.
•
Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not attempt to operate this tool
without holding it with both hands.
It is recommended that the side handle
be used at all times. 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.
•
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.
•
Do not recondition bits yourself.
Chisel reconditioning should be done by an
authorized specialist. Improperly reconditioned chisels could cause injury.
•
Wear gloves when operating tool or changing bits.
Accessible metal parts on
the tool and bits may get extremely hot during operation. Small bits of broken
material may damage bare hands.
•
Never lay the tool down until the bit has come to a complete stop.
Moving bits
could cause injury.
•
Do not strike jammed bits with a hammer to dislodge them.
Fragments of metal
or material chips could dislodge and cause injury.
•
Slightly worn chisels can be resharpened by grinding.
•
Keep the power cord away from the rotating bit. Do not wrap the cord around
any part of your body.
An electric cord wrapped around a spinning bit may
cause personal injury and loss of control.
NOTE:
Do not overheat the bit (discoloration) while grinding a new edge. Badly worn
chisels require reforging. Do not reharden and temper the chisel.
WARNING: ALWAYS
use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety
glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
