Additional Safety Rules

For all grounded tools with American type plug.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: Thistool should be grounded while i n use to protect the operator from electric shock. The tool i s equipped with a threetonductor cord and three-prong grounding- type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord i s the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal. Your unit is for use on 115 volts and has a plug that looks like Fig. " A .

An adapter Fig. "B' and "C" i s available for connecting Fig. "A" type plugs t o two-prong recep- tacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, etc., extending from the adapter must be connected t o a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box.

1.Wear a hard hat (safety helmet) and an ear protector if necessary.

2.Be sure the bit is secured in place before operation.

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

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

5.Always be sure you have a firm footing.

Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.

6.Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Always use the side grip.

7.Keep hands away from moving parts.

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

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

IO. When chipping into walls, floors or wherever "live" electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle or the side grip t o prevent electric shock if you chip into a "live" wire.

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