SAFETY GUIDELINES
• DO NOT use the power tool or machinery
in rainy conditions or wet areas where the
power tool or machinery could get wet.
Water in this power tool or machinery can
lead to electric shock.
• Only use the power tool or machinery
when the plug correctly matches the
power outlet. Modifying plugs greatly
increases the risk of electric shock.
• Keep the power cord away from anything
that could damage it such as sharp edges,
moving parts or heat. A damaged power
cord increases the risk of electric shock.
• Only operate outdoors with the use of an
outdoor extension lead. Not all extension
leads are suited to outdoor use and using
one which is not can greatly increase the risk
of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with grounded or
earthed surfaces. Surfaces such as radiators,
ranges, pipes, and refrigerators can increase
the risk of electric shock due to your body
being earthed or grounded.
• Never carry the power tool by the cord,
or yank the cable from the power outlet.
This can damage the internal wiring and may
become a hazard.
WARNING
Electric shock can cause serious injury
or, in some cases be fatal.
Electrical Safety
• Use the correct tool for the job. Forcing
a tool to do a job it was not designed for
increases the risk of accident or injury.
• Disconnect tools and machinery from
power, or remove batteries before doing
any maintenance or adjustments, or
before storing the tools and machinery.
This reduces or removes the risk of a power
connection that causes the tool or machinery
to accidentally re, which can help prevent
injury or accident.
• Check the general condition of the power
tool for damage or any problems that
could aect the way the tool or machine
works. An unrepaired tool or machine can
lead to accident and injury. Only have your
tool or machine repaired with genuine parts
from The ToolShed.
• Only use the power tool and machinery
with genuine parts or accessories that are
designed to be used with this power tool
and machinery. Failure to do so could result
in accident or injury or damage your tool or
machinery.
• Store your tool or machinery out of reach
of children, and away from untrained
personnel when not in use. Use by some-
body untrained, or a child, could lead to
accident or serious injury.

Safety
Service
• Have your tools and machinery serviced
at The ToolShed with ToolShed replace-
ment parts. This will ensure that the safety
of the power tool or machine is maintained.
• Wear ear protection. Prolonged exposure to
noise may cause hearing loss.
• Use the extra handles supplied with the
device. Loss of control may cause injury.
• Grip the tool with two hands when working
and maintain a stable posture. It is always
safer to operate the tool with two hands.
• Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool “live”
and shock the operator.
• For tasks carried out above ground level:
Ensure that the area below is clear for tasks
carried out above ground level.
• Ensure you maintain a healthy, stable posture,
as well as rm footing at all times.
• Only work with the appropriate insertion
tools. Check that the insertion tool is posi-
tioned correctly by pulling on it.
• Check the demolition breaker and the inser-
tion tool for rust and damage before each
use. Never operate the demolition breaker
if it is damaged or deformed. If you identify
damage, contact your nearest ToolShed for
replacement parts or advice.
• Under normal operation, the tool is designed
to produce vibration. The screws can come
loose easily, causing a breakdown or acci-
dent. Check tightness of screws carefully
before every operation.
WARNING
The warnings and precautions
discussed in this manual cannot cover
all possible conditions and situations
that may occur. It must be understood
by the operator that common sense
and caution are factors which cannot
be built into this product, but must be
supplied by the operator.
• It is not possible to cover every conceivable
situation you can face. Always exercise care
and use your common sense. If you get into
a situation where you feel unsafe, stop and
seek expert advise. Contact your dealer,
service agent, or an experienced user. Do not
attempt any task you feel unsure of!
• Do not let familiarity gained from the
frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety prin-
ciples. A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.
Always Use Common Sense
