Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles, ear protection, steel-toe boots, and dust mask during use.
Keep feet clear of Breaker Hammer.
Keep children and animals well clear of the work area.
1. Check Chisel for dullness, cracks, or other
damage. Sharpen or replace if necessary.
CAUTION!
Dull tipped chisels can cause unnecessary
chisel movement, resulting in tool wear and
possible injury. Use only sharp tipped chisels.
2. Clearly mark the work area.

the Engine
on page 8.
4. Grip the Handlebar of the
