How to use

Secure an appropriate hammer or demolition tool before starting work and wear suitable personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection. Position the flat tip against the work surface at the required angle and deliver controlled strikes to chip away mortar, adhesive or unwanted material. Use longer, lighter strikes for precision removal and heavier strikes for bulk material removal, taking care to avoid excessive force that could damage the underlying structure. Periodically inspect the chisel for signs of wear or mushrooming at the striking end and dress or replace the tool if necessary.

Usage recommendations

For improved tool life and safer operation, use with a properly rated striking tool, maintain a secure grip, and avoid striking hardened or tempered steel with the chisel. Keep the cutting edge clean and free of nicks; sharpen or dress the edge as required and replace the chisel if cracks or severe deformation appear.
