Operating Instructions

Read the entire Important Safety Information section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.

Work Piece and Work Area Set Up

1.Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit. The work area must not allow access by children or pets to prevent distraction and injury.

2.Route the power cord along a safe route to reach the work area without creating a tripping hazard or exposing the power cord to possible damage. The power cord must reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.

3.Secure loose work pieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement while working.

4.There must not be objects, such as utility lines, nearby that will present a hazard while working.

General Operation

To prevent serious injury:

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.

Use this tool only with a 20

AMP Circuit Breaker.

This Breaker Hammer may have decreased performance for a brief period at the beginning of each use. This warm- up period lasts approximately 3-5 minutes. This happens because the grease inside the tool may be somewhat thick, preventing the tool from operating at full efficiency while the motor is cold. This is perfectly normal and does not indicate a problem. To help reduce this effect, we recommend storing this equipment in temperatures no lower than 50- 60° F.

Only use sharp tipped chisels.

Figure 3

Dull tipped chisels can cause unneces- sary chisel movement, resulting in tool wear and possible injury.

Before each use, check the Chisel for dullness, cracks or other damage: Never use a dull or damaged Chisel. See Figure 3.
