Noise/Vibration Information

Sound emission values determined according to
EN 60745-2-6.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:
Sound pressure level 93 dB(A); sound power level
104 dB(A). Uncertainty K=2 dB.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values a (triax vector sum) and uncertainty K
h
determined according to EN 60745-2-6:
2
Chiselling: a =13 m/s , K =1.5 m/s
h
The vibration level given in this information sheet has been
measured in accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with anoth-
er. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap-
plications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or insertion tools or is
poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This
may significantly increase the exposure level over the total
working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat-
terns.
Assembly
Carrying Handle
The carrying handle 3 can be turned to any position. Loosen
the knurled nut 4, turn the carrying handle 3 around the ma-
chine axis to the desired position and tighten the knurled nut
4 again.
The carrying handle 3 can also be mounted facing to the other
side. Completely unscrew the knurled nut 4 and then pull out
the hexagon bolt upward. Pull off the carrying handle 3 to the
side and tilt the remaining clamping element by 180°. Mount
the carrying handle 3 in reverse order.
Changing the Tool (GSH 16-28)
 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
– Clean the tool shank 7 and apply a light coat of grease.
Tools without Shoulder (see figures A–B)
– Pivot the tool retainer 6 upward by approx. 150° and insert
the tool into the tool holder 8.
– Pivot the tool retainer 6 down to lock the tool.
– Check the latching by pulling the tool.

Tools with Shoulder (see figures C–D)Tools with an inser-
tion length of 152 mm (6") to the shoulder can be used.
– Pivot the tool retainer 6 upward by approx. 180° and in-
sert the tool into the tool holder 8.
– Pivot the tool retainer 6 back to the tool to lock it. The
shoulder 9 must be held by the tool retainer 6.
– Check the latching by pulling the tool.

 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
– Clean the tool shank 7 and apply a light coat of grease.
– Pull out the lock bolt 5 and turn it 180° in anticlockwise di-
rection. Allow the lock bolt 5 to latch again.
– Insert the tool into the tool holder 8 to the stop. The groove
of the tool shank 7 must face upward as shown in the fig-
ure.
– Pull out the lock bolt 5 and turn it 180° in clockwise direc-
tion. Allow the lock bolt 5 to latch again.
– Check the latching by pulling the tool.
Dust/Chip Extraction
 Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car-
cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con-
taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
Operation
Starting Operation
 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
– To start the machine, push the On/Off switch 2 to the "I"
position.
– To switch off the machine, push the On/Off switch 2 to the
"0" position.
For low temperatures, the machine reaches the full impact
rate only after a certain time.
This start-up time can be shortened by striking the chisel in
the machine against the floor one time.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
