Safety instructions for hammers
 Wear ear defenders. The effect of noise
may result in loss of hearing.
 Use auxiliary handles supplied with
the power tool. The loss of control may
result in injuries.
 Hold the power tool by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and shock the operator.

Additional safety instructions

 Use suitable detectors to detect
concealed power supply cables or
consult your local supply company.
Contact with electric cables may result in
a fire and/or electric shock. A damaged
gas pipe may cause an explosion. Cutting
into a water pipe will cause damage to
property or may cause an electric shock.
 When working, hold the power tool firmly
with both hands and ensure that you
have a secure footing. The power tool is
controlled more securely if held with both
hands.
 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece is
held more securely in a clamping device
than by hand.
 Do not use the power tool if it has
a damaged power cord. Do not touch
the damaged power cord and pull out
the mains plug if the power cord is
damaged during work. Damaged power
cords increase the risk of an electric shock.
 Only use tools with SDS-plus tool holder.
Pull on the tool to check that it is locked
properly.
 Have a damaged dust cap replaced
immediately. The dust cap prevents the
ingress of dust into the tool holder.
 Dust released from materials, such as
lead paints, some types of wood, minerals
and metal, may be hazardous to the
operator or people in the vicinity. Inhaling
or touching such dust may result in
respiratory diseases and/or allergic
reactions.
– Ensure the workplace is well ventilated.
– If possible, use external dust extraction.
