⚠️ Before You Start
When working with chisels and hammers — safety glasses are mandatory! Stone and concrete chips can fly at speed. Heavy work gloves are also essential.
Step by Step — Correct Hand Tool Use 👷
Stone chisel (JC3002) — Hold at 30–45° to the work surface. Strike with an 800–1,000g hammer firmly and consistently. For hard stone — work along the grain for cleaner splitting.
Blade replacement on scraper (EQ4011) — Press the release button, remove old blade, insert new blade until it clicks. Hold scraper at 15–20° to the surface for precise cleaning without scratching.
Marking chalk — Use a spirit level or ruler as a guide. Red chalk is clearly visible on gray concrete and dark surfaces. To erase — water and a cloth.
Weissboard clips — Push RAMO Heavy Duty clip into the joint between drywall panels until it stops. The clip holds while adhesive dries — no screws needed.
Maintenance — Clean chisels with a wire brush. Store scrapers with blade retracted. Light oil on metal tools in winter prevents rust.
💡 Pro Tip
Experienced builders lightly wet stone before chiseling — wet stone splits cleaner and produces significantly less dust.

What hammer weight to use with a stone chisel?
At least 800g — a light hammer means more strikes and more effort. A 1kg hammer is ideal for stone chisels.
How often to replace scraper blades?
When cutting starts to feel like effort — replace it. A dull blade requires more force and increases injury risk.
Does marking chalk wash off in rain?
Professional marking chalk is short-term weather resistant but washes off in heavy rain. For more permanent marking, use construction spray paint.
