WARNING Projectiles
Failure of the work piece, of accessories, or even of
the hydraulic breaker itself may generate high
velocity projectiles. During breaking, splinters, or
other particles may become projectiles and cause
bodily injury by striking the operator or other
persons. Also, breakage of the work piece,
accessories, or the working tool may generate high
velocity projectiles that can cause bodily injury. In
addition, objects falling from a height can cause
bodily injury. To reduce risks:
► Close off the working area.
► Before starting, make sure that no persons are in
the danger area, 20 meters both horizontally and
vertically from the hydraulic breaker.
► Immediately switch off the hydraulic breaker when
persons are present in the danger area.
► Press the working tool against the working surface
before you start.
► Never operate unless the working tool is retained
in the hydraulic breaker with a proper tool
retainer.
WARNING Noise hazard
High noise levels can cause permanent and disabling
hearing loss and other problems such as tinnitus
(ringing, buzzing, whistling, or humming in the
ears). To reduce risks and prevent an unnecessary
increase in noise levels:
► Risk assessment of these hazards and
implementation of appropriate controls is
essential.
► Operate and maintain the machine as
recommended in these instructions.
► Select, maintain and replace the working tool as
recommended in these instructions.
► If the machine has a silencer, check that it is in
place and in good working condition.
► Always use hearing protection.
► Use damping material to prevent work pieces
from 'ringing'.
Maintenance, precautions
WARNING Involuntary start
An involuntary start of the hydraulic breaker can lead
to severe injuries.
► Follow the instructions in the carrier manual to
prevent involuntary start of the hydraulic breaker.
► Installation of a start circuit on the hydraulic
breaker must be made in a way that avoids any
unintentional starts.
► A foot pedal on the carrier must be equipped with
a protection cover.
WARNING Hydraulic system under high
pressure
Maintenance work on a hydraulic breaker under
pressure can lead to severe injuries. Connections
can loosen suddenly, parts can suddenly move and
hydraulic oil can be ejected.
► Depressurise the hydraulic system before
performing maintenance on the hydraulic breaker
or the carrier.
WARNING Machine modification
Any machine modification may result in bodily
injuries to yourself or others.
► Never modify the machine. Modified machines
are not covered by warranty or product liability.
► Always use original parts, cutting blades/working
tools, and accessories.
► Change damaged parts immediately.
► Replace worn components in good time.
CAUTION Hot working tool
The tip of the working tool can become hot and
sharp when used. Touching it can lead to burns and
cuts.
► Never touch a hot or sharp working tool.
► Wait until the working tool has cooled down
before carrying out maintenance work.
WARNING Working tool hazards
Accidental engagement of the start and stop device
during maintenance or installation can cause serious
injuries, when the power source is connected.
► Never inspect, clean, install, or remove the
working tool while the power source is
connected.
