Do not strike an axe or hatchet with a hammer or sledge hammer as there is a risk of flying chips and of breaking the socket.

MAINTENANCE ADVICE

Sharpening: Try to sharpen your tool after each use with a file or a sharpening stone. Sharpen the blade from the middle to the outside and the two faces and maintain the original angle. Never use an angle grinder as this can destroy the effects of prior heat treatment.
