Operation, precautions

DANGER Explosion hazard
If a spike comes into contact with explosives or
explosive gases, an explosion could occur. When
working on certain materials and when using certain
materials in machine parts, 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 flammable materials,
►
fumes or dust.
Make sure that there are no undetected sources
►
of gas or explosives.
WARNING Unexpected movements
The spike driver is exposed to forces when in use.
The forces can cause sudden and unexpected
movement that can cause injuries. Furthermore,
losing your balance or slipping may cause injury.
Make sure that you always keep a stable position
►
with your feet as far apart as your shoulder width,
and keeping a balanced body weight.
Always inspect the equipment prior to use. Never
►
use the equipment if you suspect that it is
damaged.
► Make sure that the handles are clean and free of
grease and oil.
Keep hands and feet away from the spike.
►
Stand firmly and always hold on to the machine
►
with both hands.
Never start the machine when it is lying on the
►
ground.
Never 'ride on the machine with one leg over the
►
handle.
► Never strike or abuse the equipment.
► Pay attention and look at what you are doing.

Safety and operating instructions
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 (for
example, silicosis or other irreversible lung disease
that can be fatal, cancer, birth defects, and/or skin
inflammation).
Some dusts and fumes created by drilling, breaking,
hammering, sawing, grinding and other construction
activities 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 in 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 should 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
