Using your Wilton BASH® Sledge Hammer is straightforward. First, make sure to secure the hammer using the lanyard hole either to your wrist or a stationary object for safety. When you're ready to strike, hold the ergonomic handle firmly. The no - slip grip will keep it steady in your hand. Swing the hammer with a smooth motion, using the trademark green head to hit your target. For maintenance, keep the hammer clean after use. Wipe down the handle and the head to remove any dirt or debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust. Always remember the warning about cancer and reproductive harm. If you're using it for a long time, take breaks to avoid fatigue and reduce the risk of overstriking, which the Unbreakable® Handle Technology is designed to withstand but still, it's good practice to be careful.
