Please note that the tip of the working tool may remain hot for some time after use.

8.3 Angle of attack
The working tool should always be positioned at
right angles to the working surface. If this is not the
case, the hydraulic breaker will wear more quickly
and in the long term will suffer damage.
26
8.7 Never use as a sledgehammer
Before starting up, rest the breaker on the ground.
Never attempt to use the breaker and the excavator

Operating in this way is not allowed!

The working tool must be lubricated regularly during
operation. The required lubrication interval depends
on the type of application and the amount of dust
involved.
For lubrication purposes, the hydraulic breaker
should be stood vertically on the working steel and
