General safety warnings

General machine safety warnings

WARNING!

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications

provided with this machine. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may

result in electric shock, fire and / or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "machine" in the warnings refers to your mains operated (corded)

machine or battery operated (cordless) machine.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate machines in explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

Machines create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a machine.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Machine plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in

any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded)

machines.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose machines to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a machine will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or

unplugging the machine. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges

or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a machine outdoors, use an extension cord suitable

for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a machine in a damp location is unavoidable, use

a residual current device (RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when

operating a machine. Do not use a machine while you are tired

or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating machines may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,

or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal

injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the OFF-posi-

tion before connecting to power source and / or battery pack, picking

up or carrying the machine.

Carrying machines with your finger on the switch or energising machines that

have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the machine on.

A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the machines may result in

personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the machine in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your

hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and

collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of machines allow

you to become complacent and ignore machine safety principles.

A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) Machine use and care

a) Do not force the machine. Use the correct machine for your appli-

cation. The correct machine will do the job better and safer at the rate for

which it was designed.

b) Do not use the machine if the switch does not turn it on and off.

Any machine that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must

be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and / or the battery pack

from the machine before making any adjustments, changing acces-

sories, or storing machines. Such preventive safety measures reduce

the risk of starting the machine accidentally.

d) Store idle machines out of the reach of children and do not allow

persons unfamiliar with the machine or these instructions to operate

the machine. Machines are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain machines. Check for misalignment or binding of moving

parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect

the machine's operation. If damaged, have the machine repaired

before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained machines.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the machine, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with

these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and

the work to be performed. Use of the machine for operations different from

those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and

grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling

and control of the machine in unexpected situations.

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire

when used with another battery pack.

b) Use machines only with specifically designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal

objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small

metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to

another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery;

avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water.

If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified.

Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in

fire, explosion or risk of injury.

f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.

Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.

g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack

or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions.

Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may

damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

6) Service

a) Have your machine serviced by a qualified repair person using only

identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the machine is maintained.

b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should

only be performed by the manufacturer or authorised service providers.

Hedge trimmer safety warnings

a) Keep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do not remove cut

material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving.

Blades continue to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention

while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.

b) Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade stopped and

taking care not to operate any power switch.

Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of inadvertent

starting and resultant personal injury from the blades.

c) When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always fit the blade

cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal

injury from the blades.

d) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all

power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or discon-

nected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed

material or servicing may result in serious personal injury.

e) When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all

power switches are off and the lock-off is in the locked position.

Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or

servicing may result in serious personal injury.

f) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only, because

the blade may contact hidden wiring.

Blades contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge

trimmer "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

g) Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting area.

Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be

accidentally cut by the blade.

h) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather conditions, especially

when there is a risk of lightning.

This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.

Extended-reach hedge trimmer safety warnings

a) To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use the extended-reach

hedge trimmer near any electrical power lines. Contact with or use near

power lines may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.

b) Always use two hands when operating the extended-reach hedge

trimmer. Hold the extended-reach hedge trimmer with both hands to avoid

loss of control.

c) Always use head protection when operating the extended-reach

hedge trimmer overhead. Falling debris can result in serious personal injury.
