Failure to do so can cause serious injury and or damage the tool Chisel or rivet set retainers are recommended and furnished as standard equipment Periodic inspection of the retainer for wear or damage is recommended since these devices can receive heavy abuse particularly if the tool is run off the workpiece Damaged retainers are dangerous and can allow the ejection of a chisel or other implement They must be replaced as necessary Only use safety retainer type chisels as shown in the operating instruc tions and service manual Also it is good safety practice to erect suitable barriers to protect persons in surrounding or lower work areas from possible ejected tools Repetitive work motions and or vibration can cause injury to hands and arms Use minimum hand grip force N consistant with proper control and safe operation Keep body and hands warm and dry Avoid anything that inhibits blood circulation Avoid continuous vibration exposure Keep wrists straight Avoid repeated bending of wrists and hands Some individuals may be susceptible to disorders of the hands and arms when performing tasks consisting of highly repetitive motions and or exposure to extended vibration Cumulative trauma disorders such as carpal tunnel syn drome and tendonitis may be caused or aggravated by repetitious forceful exertions of the hands and arms Vibra tion may contribute to a condition called Raynaud s Syn drome These disord
