Hazards from concealed dangers / residual risks
When concrete, rocks and stone are split, there are fundamentally unfore-
seeable residual risks that can only be prevented by systematic work plan-
ning, working methods taking into account possible risks, experience, etc.!
The following list is intended to draw your attention to some possible risks:
 When supply lines / pipe systems that are not deactivated are damaged,
the device may be live, water or other media may escape or the supplies
to other sections of the building areas that are not affected by the splitting
may be cut off!
Before starting work, discuss the procedure with the person in charge of
the splitting site!
Wear appropriate personal safety gear for all work!
Do not linger in the danger zone of the device during splitting work and
take appropriate measures to prevent other personnel from entering this
zone!
Carry out the work with utmost care!

Danger from Operating Material / Splitting Material

Hazard from dust
To protect yourself from dust that accumulates when splitting concrete, rock
and stone, the operator is to take measures to minimise this (e.g. by using
suction system).
For short work you can also use respiratory equipment suited for dust.
