4.
In cold weather or when the tool has not been
used for a long time, let the tool warm up for a
while by operating it under no load. This will
loosen up the lubrication. Without proper warm-
up, hammering operation is difficult.
5.
Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure
no one is below when using the tool in high
locations.
6.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
7.
Keep hands away from moving parts.
8.
Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
9.
Do not point the tool at any one in the area when
operating. The bit could fly out and injure
someone seriously.
10. Do not touch the bit, parts close to the bit, or
workpiece immediately after operation; they may
be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
11. Some material contains chemicals which may be
toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation
and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety
data.
12. Do not touch the power plug with wet hands.

NOTE:
• Blows at no load per minute becomes smaller than
those on load in order to reduce vibration under no
load, but this does not show trouble. Once operation
starts with a bit against concrete, blows per minute
increase and get to the numbers as shown in the table.
When temperature is low and there is less fluidity in
grease, the tool may not have this function even with
the motor rotating.
CAUTION:
• If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds for a
long time, the motor may get overloaded, resulting in
tool malfunction.
• The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far as 5
and back to 1. Do not force it past 5 or 1, or the speed
adjusting function may no longer work.
