AJAX WILL REPLACE ALL TOOLS WHICH ARE DEFECTIVE IN MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP.

CAUTION:
Chisels and other striking tools are perhaps
the most widely used and probably the most often abused of all tools.
They are made in various types and sizes with varying degrees of
hardness and different configurations for specific purposes. Ajax
tools are used throughout the world by industry, foundries, railroads,
contractors, automotive body men and hundreds of others. Each tool
is designed for a particular job and should be used for that purpose
only. Air hammer chisels and points should never be used for prying,
but for their intended use only. Tools made for air hammers should
never be used unless they are in the hammer. Never strike an air
hammer tool with a hand hammer. Do not strike one hammer or sledge
with another. Never strike another tool with the side or cheek of
a hammer. Chiseling, punching and riveting should be done only with
the proper type tool. Keep tools in proper working condition. Discard
any striking or struck tools if the face and its edges show excessive
wear, dents, chips, mushrooming or improper redressing. Mushroomed
heads may chip and cause injury. Never use a hammer with a loose
or damaged handle. Never redress chisels without the proper redressing
instructions. We cannot be responsible for injury or damage caused
by tools improperly used or from tools which have been abused or
badly worn. Eye protection, through the use of safety goggles or
hood.
AJAX DISTRIBUTOR INVENTORY
ADJUSTMENT PROGRAM

The Ajax Distributor Inventory Adjustment

A simple fact is that continuously using a chisel with a dull cutting edge will cause metal fatigue. Not only does a dull edge keep you from doing the job right, the extra time and energy involved to drive these dull chisels contribute to the premature failure of the chisel.
For maximum performance and safety, use only sharp tools. When the chisel loses its sharpness it should be re-forged and heat-treated or replaced entirely.
Safety precautions do not end here, however. Tool operators should always wear gloves, safety glasses, hard hats and safety shoes or boots. Most contractors require their workers to wear these items, but it’s a good idea for anyone using these tools.
When using pneumatic or electric tool accessories, the following guidelines will help to ensure that you get the best results:
