 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before installation or operation of the hydraulic breaker, the operator and
maintenance personnel should read and understand the following safety precautions:
 The safety alert symbol ! means ATTENTION! Your safety is involved!!

 In accordance with the general construction safety standards, no bystanders are

allowed in the vicinity of the breaker while it is in use.
 Stay clear of the breaker while it is in operation. Flying objects can cause severe
injuries, or even death.
 Always wear safety glasses and ear protection when operating the breaker.
 Always wear safety glasses during installation, service or any activities associated
with the breaker.
 Before operating the breaker, read and follow the safety decals located on the
breaker. The opposite page shows these decals.
 Operate the breaker only when the operator is seated in the cabin with full control
of the machine.
 Use the breaker for its intended purpose only.
 Be sure all decals, name plates, serial number tags and the mandatory daily check
list are clearly visible. Clean and replace as necessary.
 When installing or removing the breaker, keep hands and fingers clear of the
mounting pin holes and linkage.
 Make frequent inspections of the breaker and base machine as described in the
"Daily Inspection" section of this manual.
 Never use the breaker as a lifting device.
 Do not make any alterations to the breaker without the authorization of Furukawa
Rock Drill USA’s Product Support Department.
 Anytime service is performed on the breaker, hydraulic pressure in the line must
first be released. Then disconnect the hydraulic lines themselves.
 Never disassemble the breaker without first releasing the gas charges. Failure to
comply can result in serious injuries or death.
 Use only Furukawa Rock Drill USA replacement parts.

!
 Never use hands to search for hydraulic fluid leaks, use a piece of paper or
cardboard. Escaping fluid under pressure can be invisible and can penetrate
the skin and cause a serious injury. If any fluid is injected into your skin,
see a doctor immediately. Injected fluid MUST be surgically removed by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury or gangrene may result.
