Safety Instructions for Forestry Wedges
General Information:
• Suitable tool: Always use wedges specifically designed for the respective task. Using an unsuitable tool increases the risk of accidents and can make the work more difficult.
• Forestry wedges may only be used by persons with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities, or lacking experience and/or knowledge, if they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety, have received instructions on how to use forestry wedges, and have understood the resulting hazards.
• Children may only use forestry wedges if they are over 8 years old and are supervised by a person responsible for their safety, have received instructions on how to use forestry wedges, and have understood the resulting hazards.
• Keep packaging films away from children; risk of suffocation!
Intended Use:
• Safety is only ensured when the tool is used as intended. Use the tool exclusively for its designated purpose.
• Insert wedges only from a safe distance: Always insert the wedge safely and in a controlled manner into the split or cutting area of the wood to prevent sudden movements or slipping.
• Never overload wedges: Wedges are designed for specific loads. Avoid overloading, as this may cause the wedge to fail.
Improper Use:
• Using wedges outside forestry work is not permitted.
Inspection Before Use:
• Ensure integrity: Check wedges before each use for damage such as cracks or loose parts.
• Do not use damaged wedges: Defective wedges must not be used and must be taken out of service immediately.
Personal Protective Equipment:
• Wear safety goggles: Use safety goggles to protect yourself from chipping material.
• Hand protection: Wear robust work gloves that provide a secure grip and protect against splinters or skin injuries.
• Safety footwear: Wear safety shoes with a metal or plastic toe cap to protect your toes.
Specific Instructions for Handling Wedges:
• Firm handling: Always hold the wedge firmly and securely when inserting it into the wood. An unstable grip may cause the wedge to slip or twist, increasing the risk of injury.
• Avoid slipping: Ensure that the wedge is positioned precisely in the intended cut to prevent uncontrolled movements of the wedge or the wood.
• Never strike a wedge with bare hands: Always use a hammer or striking tool designed for this purpose. Striking with bare hands can cause severe injuries.
Safety Measures During Use:
• Use suitable tools: Always use the correct hammer or sledgehammer to drive wedges into the wood. Using the wrong tool may result in improper use or damage to the wedge.
• Stable stance: Always work from a stable position to maintain control over the tool and the wood. An unstable stance significantly increases the risk of injury.
• Never loosen the wedge after striking: Do not attempt to loosen the wedge after it has been driven into the wood. If the wedge becomes stuck, use an appropriate tool to remove it safely.
Maintenance, Care and Storage:
• Regular inspection: Check wedges regularly for cracks, wear or damage. A damaged wedge may split or break during use, leading to injuries.
• Cleaning after use: Remove any wood residues or dirt from the wedges after use. Cleaning the tool extends its lifespan and prevents corrosion or material degradation.
• Store wedges safely: Store wedges in a dry, secure place to prevent long-term damage from moisture or corrosion.
• Storage: Store wedges out of reach of children and persons with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities, in a safe, dry place such as a toolbox or tool wall to prevent accidents and damage.
Special Notes:
• Do not use wedges for mechanical leverage: Wedges are not designed to be used as levers or pry bars. Using them as such may cause unexpected movements and dangerous situations.
• Do not drive wedges into moving parts: Never use wedges near mechanical or moving components that could be damaged by inserting the wedge.
• Transport: Ensure that wedges are securely fastened during transport and that sharp edges are protected to avoid injuries.
