How to use

Grip the wooden handle near its end to maximise swing leverage and control. Position the hammer head square to the nail or work surface to reduce glancing blows.

Inspect the handle and head before use to ensure the head is securely mounted to the handle.

Usage recommendations

Use the hammer for tasks suited to a 500 g head — typical carpentry, assembly and light demolition. Avoid heavy striking on hardened surfaces or using the tool as a pry bar. Replace the handle or stop using the hammer if the head becomes loose or the handle shows significant cracks or splintering.
