HEALTH ADVICE
Warning!
When drilling, sanding, sawing or grinding, dust particles will be
produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working with,
this dust can be particularly harmful to you (e.g. lead from old gloss paint).
You are advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working
with and to reduce the risk of exposure. You should:
- Work in a well-ventilated area.
- Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter microscopic particles.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR YOUR BREAKER
1. Always wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
2. Always use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause per-
sonal injury.
3. Safety boots are recommended at all times.
4. Proper safety gloves are also recommended.
5. Always wear a dust mask.
6. Always check walls and ceiling to avoid hidden power cables and pipes. A metal
detector can be obtained from any good DIY store for this purpose.
7. Before starting to work, always check that the chisel is properly locked in the chuck.
8. Hold the tool firmly with both hands while working and provide for secure footing.
The tool is more securely guided with both hands.
9. The screw of machine can come loose easily, and causing a breakdown or accident.
Check tightness of screw carefully before operation.
10. Do not touch the chisel or parts close to the chisel immediately after operation. They
may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
11. 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 lubrica-
tion.
12. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust
inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
Double insulation:
The tool is double insulated. This means that all the external metal parts are electrically
insulated from the mains power supply. This is done by placing insulation barriers
between the electrical and mechanical components making it unnecessary for the tool
to be earthed.
