Hammer safety warnings
–
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
–
Use auxiliary handle, if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
–
Hold 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.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
For your safety, do not plug in your power tool until you have read and understood this
Owner’s Manual.
•
WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
Use face or dust mask along with safety goggles. Use hearing
protection, particularly during extended periods of operation, wear safety shoes, wear
hard hat
•
Wear ear protectors with impact chisels.
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
•
DO NOT
wear gloves, jewellery, neckties or loose clothing.
•
DO NOT
drill, cut or sand material too small to be securely held.
•
ALWAYS
keep hands out of the path of the drill bit and saw blade. Avoid awkward hand
positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the path of the drill
bit or saw blade.
•
SECURE THE WORKPIECE
. Use clamps or a vice to hold the work when feasible. It is safer
than using your hand and it frees both hands to operate the tool.
•
MAKE SURE
there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be cut,
drilled or sanded.
•
TO AVOID INJURY
from accidental starting, always remove the plug from the electrical
socket before installing or removing a chisel bit.
DRILL SAFETY
•
When using the electric hammer chisel, only use the bits that correspond to the
correct slots for this chuck.
•
BEFORE STARTING
the operation, push the chisel switch to make sure the chisel bit does
not wobble or vibrate.
•
DO NOT USE
fly cutters or multiple-part hole cutters, as they can come apart or become
unbalanced in use.
•
MAKE SURE
the spindle has come to a complete stop before touching the chuck or
attempting to change the chisel bit. Also, bear in mind that the bit will be hot, so let it
cool down before changing since it can cause burns and other injuries.
•
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE CHISEL IS FIRMLY SEATED IN THE HEXAGONAL CHUCK
before
starting the operation.
