HAMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Wear ear protectors. Exposure
to noise can cause hearing loss.
2. Use auxiliary handle(s), if
supplied with the tool.
Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
3. 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.
