half of its original length it should be renewed. Using thin nosed pliers pull the brush connector off its connector. Slide the new brush
into its holder. Slide the connector onto the connector. Position the spring so that it bears down onto the end of the brush. Remember
to renew brushes as a pair. Fit rear covers back into place and retain it with the screws.

WARNING! – RISK OF HAND ARM VIBRATION INJURY.
THIS TOOL MAY CAUSE HAND ARM VIBRATION SYNDROME IF ITS USE IS NOT MANAGED ADEQUATELY.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
MEASURED VIBRATION EMISSION VALUE (a): 2.3m/s²
UNCERTAINTY VALUE (k) : 1.5m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend
that a specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each
tool.
NB: StatedVibrationEmissionvaluesaretype-testvaluesandareintendedtobetypical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm
Vibration Syndrome.
HEALTH SURVEILLANCE.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be
modified accordingly.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and
dry and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the
Correct Use and Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on
the HSC website
