General safety rules / Before using / Start-up
For breakers, move the cutting tool every few
seconds. Stop the breaker when lifting the tool
to change position, because vibration is high
when pulling up on the handles.
Exposure to vibration may cause damage to
the nerves and disturb blood circulation in hands
and arms.
Wear warm clothing and keep your hands warm
and dry when working in cold environments.
Stop using the device if you experience numb-
ness, tingling, pain or lightening of the skin of
the fingers or hands, and consult a physician.
Do not hold the tool being used with the free
hand, as this will increase vibration.
Additional safety instructions
for pneumatic power tools
Air under pressure can cause severe injury:
–
always shut off air supply, drain hose of air
pressure and disconnect tool from air supply
when not in use, before changing accessories
or when making repairs;
–
never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always
check for damaged or loose hoses and fittings.
Cold air shall be directed away from hands.
Do not use quick-disconnect couplings at tool
inlet. Use hardened steel (or material with com-
parable shock resistance) threaded hose fittings.
Whenever universal twist couplings (claw cou-
plings) are used, lock pins shall be installed and
whipcheck safety cables shall be used to safe-
guard against possible hose-to-tool and hose-to-
hose connection failure.
Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated
on the tool.
Never carry an air tool by the hose.

Check the device and tools before every use,
including checking the speed and the vibration
level.
Screw the included plug nipples

into the air
connection after first wrapping the thread with
2–3 layers of sealing tape.
Insert the respective chisel into the hex collet of
the chipper. First guide insert the square chisel

into the tension spring. Then slide the tension
spring
4
over the chisel.
Tighten the tension spring all the way onto the
thread of the cylinder. When doing so, hold the
tension spring on the front retainer.
Connect the chipper to a compressor or com-
pressed air supply with suitable output. When
doing so, use a flexible air hose (inside Ø 10 mm)
with quick coupler (see picture shown above).
Be sure the air adjusting screw
1
is set to allow
air to pass through.
Start-up
Chiselling (see Fig. B / C)
