You need gloves to protect your hands from the vibration of the machine. You also need a helmet to protect your head should the hammer slip. You should always wear protective goggles to protect your eyes from flying debris while you are using the hammer. There may be other types of safety equipment required, please see the instructions inside your machine for more details.
