- mount desired accessory

- switch on the tool

- advance the tool to the material/location to be

scraped

to the background material

! do not overload the tool

! allow tool and accessory to cool down between

the individual work steps

• Sharpening of accessories

- with sharp accessories, good working performance

and a long service life can be achieved

- sharpen the steel accessories before they come dull

with a standardised test given in EN 60745; it may be

used to compare one tool with another and as a

preliminary assessment of exposure to vibration when

using the tool for the applications mentioned

- using the tool for different applications, or with

different or poorly maintainted accessories, may

signiﬁ cantly increase the exposure level

- the times when the tool is switched off or when it is

running but not actually doing the job, may

signiﬁ cantly reduce the exposure level

maintaining the tool and its accessories, keeping

your hands warm, and organizing your work
