ENGLISH
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional power tool safety warnings
@
Warning! Additional safety warnings for demolition
hammers.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hear-
u
ing loss.
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of
u
control can cause personal injury.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
u
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting ac-
cessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator
an electric shock
Be certain that the material being drilled does not
u
conceal electric or gas service and that their locations
have been verified with the utility companies.
Keep a firm grip on the tool at all times. Do not at-
u
tempt to operate this tool without holding it with both
hands. 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.
Tighten the side handle securely before use.
Ensure the chisel is secured in place before operating
u
the tool.
In cold-weather conditions or when the tool has not
u
been used for a longer period of time, let the tool run
with no load for several minutes before use.

u
the chisel.
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
u
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.

Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured
in accordance with a standard test method provided by
EN 60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
