17. 

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. 

Power tool use and care 

18. 

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. 

19. 

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. 

20. 

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. 

21. 

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. 

22. 

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. 

23. 

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges 
are less likely to bind and are easier to control. 

24. 

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. 

Service 

25. 

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. 

26. 

Follow instruction for lubricating and 
changing accessories. 

27. 

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and 
grease. 

GEB004-6 

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. 

4. 

Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety 
glasses and/or face shield. Ordinary eye or 
sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. It is also 
highly recommended that you wear a dust 
mask and thickly padded gloves. 

5. 

Be sure the bit is secured in place before 
operation. 

6. 

Under normal operation, the tool is designed 
to produce vibration. The screws can come 
loose easily, causing a breakdown or accident. 
Check tightness of screws carefully before 
operation. 

7. 

In cold weather or when the tool has not been 
used for a long time, let the tool warm up for a 
while by operating it under no load. This will 
loosen up the lubrication. Without proper 
warm-up, hammering operation is difficult. 

8. 

Always be sure you have a firm footing. 
Be sure no one is below when using the tool 
in high locations. 

9. 

Hold the tool firmly with both hands. 

10. 

Keep hands away from moving parts. 

11. 

Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool 
only when hand-held. 

12. 

Do not point the tool at any one in the area 
when operating. The bit could fly out and 
injure someone seriously. 

13. 

Do not touch the bit or parts close to the bit 
immediately after operation; they may be 
extremely hot and could burn your skin. 

14. 

Do not operate the tool at no-load 
unnecessarily. 

15. 

Some material contains chemicals which may 
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust 
inhalation and skin contact. Follow material 
supplier safety data. 

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 

 

WARNING: 

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product 
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence 
to safety rules for the subject product. 
MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in 
this instruction manual may cause serious personal 
injury.
