that can be fatal, cancer, birth defects, and/or skin
inflammation).

Some dusts and fumes created by compaction work
contain substances known to the State of California
and other authorities to cause respiratory disease,
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of such substances are:

● Crystalline silica, cement, and other masonry

products.

● Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated

rubber.

● Lead from lead-based paints.

Dust and fumes in the air can be invisible to the
naked eye, so do not rely on eye sight to determine
if there is dust or fumes are the air.

To reduce the risk of exposure to dust and fumes,
do all of the following:

► Perform site-specific risk assessment. The risk

assessment must include dust and fumes created
by the use of the machine and the potential for
disturbing existing dust.

► Use proper engineering controls to minimize the

amount of dust and fumes in the air and to
minimize build-up on equipment, surfaces,
clothing, and body parts. Examples of controls
include: exhaust ventilation and dust collection
systems, water sprays, and wet drilling. Control
dusts and fumes at the source where possible.
Make sure that controls are properly installed,
maintained and correctly used.

► Wear, maintain and correctly use respiratory

protection as instructed by your employer and as
required by occupational health and safety
regulations. The respiratory protection must be
effective for the type of substance at issue (and if
applicable, approved by relevant governmental
authority).

► Work in a well ventilated area.

► If the machine has an exhaust, direct the exhaust

so as to reduce disturbance of dust in a dust filled
environment.

► Operate and maintain the machine as

recommended in the operating and safety
instructions

► Wear washable or disposable protective clothes

at the worksite, and shower and change into clean
clothes before leaving the worksite to reduce
exposure of dust and fumes to yourself, other
persons, cars, homes, and other areas.

DANGER Exhaust gas hazard

The exhaust gas from the machine’s combustion
engine contains carbon monoxide which is
poisonous, and chemicals known to the State of
California and other authorities to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. Inhalation of
exhaust fumes can cause serious injury, illness, or
death.

► Never inhale exhaust fumes.

► Ensure good ventilation (extraction of air by fan if

necessary).

WARNING Projectiles

Failure of the work piece, of accessories, or even of
the machine itself may generate high velocity
projectiles. During operating, splinters or other
particles from the compacted material may become
projectiles and cause personal injury by striking the
operator or other persons. To reduce these risk:

► Use approved personal protective equipment and

safety helmet, including impact resistant eye
protection with side protection.

► Make sure that no unauthorised persons trespass

into the working zone.

► Keep the workplace free from foreign objects.

BG 240 H4Safety and operating instructions

WARNING Vibration hazards

Normal and proper use of the machine exposes the
operator to vibration. Regular and frequent exposure
to vibration may cause, contribute to, or aggravate
injury or disorders to the operator’s fingers, hands,
wrists, arms, shoulders and/or nerves and blood
supply or other body parts, including debilitating
and/or permanent injuries or disorders that may
develop gradually over periods of weeks, months, or
years. Such injuries or disorders may include damage
to the blood circulatory system, damage to the
nervous system, damage to joints, and possibly
damage to other body structures.

If numbness, persistent recurring discomfort, burning
sensation, stiffness, throbbing, tingling, pain,
clumsiness, weakened grip, whitening of the skin, or
other symptoms occur at any time, when operating
the machine or when not operating the machine, stop
operating the machine, tell your employer and seek
medical attention. Continued use of the machine after
the occurrence of any such symptom may increase
the risk of symptoms becoming more severe and/or
permanent.

Operate and maintain the machine as recommended
in these instructions, to prevent an unnecessary
increase in vibration.

The following may help to reduce exposure to
vibration for the operator:

► If the machine has vibration absorbing handles,

keep them in a central position, avoid pressing the
handles into the end stops.

► When the percussion mechanism is activated, the

only body contact with the machine you must have
are your hands on the handle or handles. Avoid
any other contact, for example supporting any part
of the body against the machine or leaning onto
the machine trying to increase the feed force.

► Make sure that the machine is well-maintained

and not worn out.

► Immediately stop working if the machine suddenly

starts to vibrate strongly. Before resuming the
work, find and remove the cause of the increased
vibrations.

► Participate in health surveillance or monitoring,

medical exams and training programs offered by
your employer and when required by law.

► When working in cold conditions wear warm

clothing and keep hands warm and dry.

See the ”Noise and vibration declaration statement”
