SAFETY
Safety notices in NPK Instruction Manuals follow ISO and ANSI standards for
safety warnings:
DANGER (red) notices indicate an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING (orange) notices indicate a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
CAUTION (yellow) notices indicate a potentially hazardous
situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
ATTENTION (blue) notices in NPK Instruction Manuals are an NPK
standard to alert the reader to situations which, if not avoided,
could result in equipment damage.
WARNING and BASIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS decals are included with each
NPK hammer and installation kit. Decals must be installed in the cab, visible to the
operator while operating the hammer.
STAY CLEAR, PRESSURE VESSEL, GAS PRESSURE and TOOL SHARPENING
decals are installed on all NPK hammer models. Keep them clean and visible. NPK will
provide decals free of charge as needed.
1. Operator and Service personnel must read and understand the NPK INSTRUCTION
MANUAL to prevent serious or fatal injury.
2. FLYING DEBRIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS OR FATAL
INJURY.
• Keep personnel and bystanders clear of hammer
while in operation.
• Do not operate HAMMER without an impact
resistant guard between the HAMMER and
operator. NPK recommends LEXAN® or equivalent
material, or steel mesh. Some carrier
manufacturers offer demolition guards for their
machine. Check with the carrier manufacturer for
availability. If not available, please call NPK.
3. Do not hardface or sharpen the tool point with a cutting
torch. Excessive heat from torching or welding can cause embrittlement, breakage,
and flying pieces. Resharpen by milling or grinding only, using sufficient coolant.
