When the ART Attack is put away, it must be ensured that
the tips of the tool point downwards. During breakage
levering be careful of parts which may catapult or y
out, such as locks, hinges etc.
Do not touch any electrically conductive parts and wiring because the tool itself is electrically conductive!
The ART Attack must not be used in any explosion endangered areas and atmospheres!
Important! When opening a re room, darting ames can
occur with and without pressure eect. Only work from
a protected position and have other measures readily
available corresponding to requirements.
The head pieces and the grip bar transfer heat to your
protective gloves.
Brace wedge
Flat wedge
Operating Instructions3.
Breakage levering applications 3.1
The brace wedge can be used for breaking in and the at wedge
for doors which are dicult to open.
The standard method for breakage levering is to apply the brace
wedge into the door gap at the height of the door mounting. The
arch of the brace wedge is placed on the door mounting. The grip
rod is pushed towards the leaf of the door until this springs out.
When positioning yourself, make sure that the
at wedge is not placed directly in front of you
stomach area. Danger of injury !
Weaken solid looking doors by applying initial tension. The at
wedge is either placed at the top or the bottom in the door gap
and turned towards the leaf of the door. In doing this an air gap
is created between the door frame and the leaf of the door which
is then held open by using a wooden wedge. The brace wedge of
the ART Attack is then used in this gap and the door can be opened as already described.
Levering up loads 3.2
The ground must be suciently solid enough when levering up
small loads, e.g. asphalt or concrete. If elevation work is carried
out on soft ground such as sand, pebble stones or grass then a
wooden board, or something similar, must be positioned in front
of the load.
The brace wedge is then pushed under the load, the arch of the
brace wedge is on the ground, or on the wooden board. The load
can now be slowly lifted by applying weight onto the grip rod, e.g.
Page 5
Page 5/7
by foot or body weight of the user. Possible lifting power and lift
height depends on the length of the levering arm. The load must
be immediately propped in order to avoid sinking.
Opening and breaking up materials3.3
The spike, hammer and at wedge can be used as striking tools.
Thin plates
An opening in a plate is created by striking with the spike. If larger
openings are required then a number of holes can be made in a
row. An axe or split hammer is then used to join the holes made
by the spike.
Chip boards
Chip boards can also be opened with a row of holes which
are then joined by cutting.
Sandwich plaster boards
Produce a row of holes with the spike and hit out large pieces with
the hammer area. Note : Plaster board can contain electrical wiring!
Single glass, at glass
Spike
Hammer area
Flat wedge
Break the glass sheets going from the top to the bottom using the
hammer area. Doing this , stand to one side of the window being
broken.
Single sheet safety glass, automotive windscreens
Using the spike, the sheet is broken around the edge area, the
glass then breaks into pieces.
Wire reinforced glass, compound glass
An opening rstly made with the spike, after doing this the at
wedge can be used hitting from a side position or knocking in the
cut line from the front with the brace wedge.
Single row walls made of hollow blocks, bricks, glass bricks or aerated concrete blocks can also be broken up. The rst block should
be removed using the spike like a pickle. The other blocks can
then be broken up with the brace wedge or knocked out with the
hammer.
Openings made in brick walls must always have
the shape of a square standing on the tip so
the remaining bricks can support each other.

Producing an opening for extinguishing work
The spike is struck into the material to be opened (usually thin
plating). The opening can be expanded by turning the spike. This
enables extinguishing work to be carried out through the opening.
This operating manual was carefully made
according to the best of our knowledge.
However it must be pointed out that all
dangers resulting from the application of
the tool cannot be foreseen.
Therefore the user is obliged to use the
tool in a responsible manner.
Application of the metal cutting claw3.4
The ART Attack, with its metal cutting claw, is the ideal tool for
breaking-through and cutting thin plate (e.g. car roofs and bonnets, aircraft and thin-walled structures).
Maintenance and care3.5
After use, the tool must be cleaned with water, a neutral cleaning
agent and a scrubbing brush. Drying can be made with a cloth.
