OPERATION, PRECAUTIONS
DANGER Explosion hazard
If a warm machine or exhaust pipe comes into
contact with explosives, an explosion couldoccur.
During operating with certain materials, sparks
and ignition can occur. Explosions will lead to
severe injuries or death.
Never operate the machine in any explosive
environment.
Never use the machine near ammable materials,
fumes or dust.

DANGER Fire hazard
If a re starts in the machine, it can cause injury.
If possible use an ABE-class powder
extinguisher, other wise usea BE-type carbon
dioxide re extinguisher.
DANGER Fuel hazard
The fuel is ammable and fuel fumes can explode
when ignited, causing serious injury or death.
Protect your skin from contac twith the fuel.If fuel
has penetratedtheskin,consult a qualied health
professional.
Never remove the ller cap,or ll the fueltank
when the machine is hot.
• Respiratory protection when appropriate
• Protective gloves
• Proper protective boots
• Appropriate work overall or similar clothing (not loose-tting) that covers your arms and legs.

Never smoke when lling the fuel tank or when
working with the machine or servicing it.
Only store fuel in a container that is specially
constructed and approved for the purpose.
Consumed fuel and oil containers must be
taken care of and returned to the retailer.
Never use your ngers to check for uid leaks.
WARNING Unexpected movements
The machine is exposed to heavy strains during
operation.If the machine breaks or gets stuck,
there maybe sudden and unexpected movemen
that can cause injuries.
Always inspect the machine prior to use. Never
use the machine if you suspect that it is damaged.
Make sure that the handle is clean and free of
grease and oil.
Keep your feet away from the machine.
Never sit on the machine.
Never strike or abuse the machine.
Pay attention and look at what you are doing.
WARNING Dust and fume hazard
Dusts and /or fumes generated or dispersed when
using the machine may cause serious and permanent respiratory disease, illness, or other bodily
injury (forexample, silicosis or other irreversible
lung disease that can be fatal, cancer, birth defects,
and /or skin inammation). Some dusts and fumes
created by compaction work contain substances
known to cause respiratory disease, cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm.
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-specic risk assessment. The risk as-
sessment should include dust and fumes created by
the use of the machine and the potential for disturbing existing dust.
Wear, maintain and correctly use respiratory protec-
tion as instructed by your employer and as required
by occupational health and safety regulations. Ther
espiratory 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 dustin a dust lled
environment.
Operate and maintain the machine as recommended
in the operating and safety instructions.
Wear washable or disposable protective clo-
thes at the worksite, and shower and change in
to clean clothes before leaving the work site to
reduce exposure of dust and fumes to your self, other
persons, cars, homes, and other areas.
Avoid eating,drinking, and using tobacco products in
areas where there is dust or fumes.
Wash your hands and face thoroughly as soon as
possible upon leaving the exposure area,and always
before eating, drinking, using tobacco products,or
making contact with other persons.
Comply with all applicable laws and regultions,
including occupational health and safety regulations.
Participate in air monitoring, medical examination
programs, and health and safety training programs
provided by your employer or trade organizations
and in accordance with occupational health and
safety regulations and recommendations. Consult
with physicians experienced in relevant occupational
medicine.
Work with your employer and trade organization
to reduce dust and fume exposure at the work site
and to reduce the risks. Effective health and safety
programs, policies and procedures for protecting
workers and others against harmful exposure to dust
and fumes should be established and mplemented
based on advice from health and safety experts.
Consult with experts.
DANGER Exhaust gas hazard
The exhaust gas from the machine’s combustion
engine contains carbon monoxide which is poisonous, and chemicals which 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 sa-
fety helmet, including impact resistant eye protection
with side protection.
Make sure that no unauthorised persons trespass into
the working zone.
Keep the work place free from foreign objects.
WARNING Rotating blades hazards
There is a risk of hands and feet getting caught by
the rotating blades when the machine is running.
This can cause personal injury.
Never place your hands or feet inside the protection
ring when the machine is running
WARNING Motions hazards
When using the machine to perform work-related
activities, you may experience discomfort in the
hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of the
body.
If numbness, persistent recurring discomfort,
burning sensation, stiffness, throbbing, tingling,
pain, clumsiness, weakened grip,whitening of the
skin, or other symptoms occurat 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 recommen-
ded 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 yous hould 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.
Adopt a comfortable posture whilst maintaining
secure footing and avoiding awkward off-balanced
postures.
Changing posture during extended tasks may help
avoid discomfort and fatigue.
In case of persistent or recurring symptoms, consult a
qualied health professional.
WARNING Vibrations 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’sf ingers, hands,
wrists, arms, shoulders and/or nerves and blood
supply or other bodyparts, 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.
Immediately stop working if the machine
suddenly starts to vibrate strongly. Before resuming
the work, nd 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”for the machine, including the declared
vibration values. This information can be found at
the end of these Safety and operating instructions.
