Action required
-
Visual inspection <br>Ensure Staff / Contractor undertake a visual inspection of the machine prior to each operation in <br>particular: <br>* Check for oil leaks and damage <br>* Check chisel/pick is suitable for task <br>* Check hoses and connectors for damage<br><br>
-
PPE <br>Ensure the following PPE is available and worn where applicable: <br>* Safety Vest <br>* Safety boots <br>* Gloves <br>* Hard hat <br>* Safety glasses. <br>* Hearing protection <br><br>
-
Breaking<br>• Let the machine do the work; do not press too<br>hard. The vibration-reducing handle must<br>absolutely not be pressed all the way down to the<br>base.<br>• For pneumatic breakers with vibration-reducing<br>handles: The feed force should be adapted so that<br>the handles are pressed down 'half way'. The best<br>vibration damping and breaking effect is achieved<br>at this position.<br><br>
-
Starting a cut
-
Stand in a stable position with your feet well away from the inserted tool.
-
Press the machine against the working surface before you start.
-
Start collaring at such a distance from the edge that the machine is capable of breaking the material without levering.
-
-
Never try to break off too large pieces. Adjust the breaking distance (A) so that the inserted tool does not get stuck.
-
Avoid working in extremely hard materials for example granite and reinforcing iron (re-bar) which would cause substantial vibrations.
-
Any form of idling, operating without insertion tool or operating with an uplifted machine must be avoided.
-
When the machine is lifted, the start and stop device must not be activated.
-
Check regularly that the machine is well lubricated.
