E N G L I S H
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery
or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
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 tool's 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 qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Additional Specifi c Safety Rules for
Rotary Hammers
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
• Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
• 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.
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
Hammering operations cause chips to fl y. 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 fi rm 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. Tighten the side
handle securely before use.
• 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.
