How to use

Hold the wooden handle with a firm two-handed grip when applying full strikes and position your body to control recoil. Use the central mass of the head to deliver perpendicular blows to the work surface, avoiding glancing blows that can cause head rotation. Inspect the handle and head seating before each use to ensure the head is secure. Replace the handle if it shows cracks or significant wear; secure the head and any wedges according to standard workshop practice before using the tool again.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate eye protection and hand protection when using the hammer. Use on stable work surfaces, and avoid using the hammer on hardened steel without suitable striking faces. Store the hammer in a dry place to prevent handle degradation and perform regular inspections for safe operation.
