Dust Hazard: Demolition generates silica dust. Use appropriate respiratory protection and dust extraction where possible. The GDE max Professional dust attachment provides effective dust control .
Kickback Hazard: Maintain a firm grip and proper stance. Be prepared for sudden reactions if the chisel binds in the material.
Maintenance: Unplug tool before changing chisels or performing maintenance. Allow the tool to cool before storing.
Training requirement: Operators must be trained on correct usage and safety procedures. Supervisors should ensure all safety protocols are followed.
2. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Injury (debris): Do not rub. Rinse immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention.
Cut Injury: Apply direct pressure to stop bleeding. Clean wound with clean water. Cover with sterile dressing. Seek medical attention if bleeding is profuse or the wound is deep.
Skin Contact (dust): Wash skin with soap and water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
Inhalation of Dust: Move a person to fresh air. If symptoms persist (coughing, difficulty breathing), seek medical attention.

Glue Gun
A glue gun, specifically a 40-watt glue gun, is a handheld tool designed for dispensing hot melt adhesive in a controlled and precise manner. It typically consists of a heating element powered by a 40-watt electrical system, a trigger mechanism to control the adhesive flow, and a nozzle for directing the melted glue. The glue stick, usually made of thermoplastic materials, is inserted into the gun, melted by the heating element, and then extruded through the nozzle as a liquid adhesive. This versatile tool is commonly used in various DIY projects, crafts, and home repairs due to its quick and efficient bonding capabilities. The 40-watt power rating indicates the electrical power consumed by the glue gun to heat the adhesive to its melting point.
