holding the heavy tool before / during / after oper-
ation to avoid personal injuries.
CAUTION:
When you break the debris into
smaller pieces, be careful of the flying debris.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
Turn the tool on and apply slight pressure on the tool
so that the tool will not bounce around, uncontrolled.
Pressing very hard on the tool will not increase the efficiency.
CAUTION:
Always make sure that the workpiece
is secured before operation. Failure to properly secure the
workpiece may cause the workpiece to move resulting in injury.
CAUTION:
Do not pull out the tool if stuck.
Instead, break the workpiece around the bit tip.
CAUTION:
Do not leave the tool stabbed in
the workpiece. Otherwise the tool may starts unin-
tentionally and cause an injury.
CAUTION:
Be sure to place the tool on the
stable floor or ground after use.
NOTE: If the battery cartridge is in low temperature, the
tool's capability may not be fully obtained. In this case,
warm up the battery cartridge by using the tool with no
load for a while to fully obtain the tool's capability.
