- Stop using the equipment if you experience numbness, tingling, pain, or whitening of the skin on your fingers or hands, and consult a doctor.
- Do not hold the plug-in tool with your free hand as this will lead to a higher vibration load.
- Hold the equipment with a light but secure grip, noting the reaction forces which arise in the process.
- The risk of disorders caused by vibrations is always greater with a tight grip.
Additional safety information for pneumatic machines
- Compressed air can cause serious injuries.
- Disconnect the compressed air coupling and depressurize the equipment before your service, repair, or transport the equipment and before you change the chisel.
- Never direct compressed air at yourself or at any other persons.
- Whipping hoses may cause serious injuries. You must always make sure therefore that the hoses and their fasteners are undamaged and have not become disconnected.
- When you release the quick-lock coupling, hold the hose securely in your hand and never use defective connectors. This will help to prevent injuries caused by a whipping compressed air hose.
- Do not let cold air flow over your hands.
- Do not use any quick-lock couplings at the air inlet. Use hose connections with a hardened steel thread (or a material with comparable resistance to vibrations).
- If universal rotary couplings (claw couplings) are used, lock pins must be installed, and a retention system for compressed air hoses used in order to protect against possible faulty connections („hose to tool“ or „hose to hose“).
- Do not exceed the maximum permissible operating pressure.
- Do not carry compressed air tools by their hoses.
- Keep this safety information in a safe place.
