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 application. 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 remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
machine before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, 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 and accessories. 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 machines sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting machines with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the machine, accessories and machine 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 MACHINE 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 machine 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 machine 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 machine 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 authorized service providers.
LINE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
•
Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions,
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
•
Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the
machine is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the
machine during operation.
•
Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine
is to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires,
bones, and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can
cause personal injury.
•
Before using the machine, always visually inspect to
see that the cutter and the cutter assembly are not
damaged. Damaged parts increase the risk of injury.
•
Before use, check the supply cord and any
extension cord for signs of damage or aging. Do not
use the machine if the cord is damaged or worn.
If the cord is damaged or worn during use, switch
off the machine and do not touch the cord before
disconnecting it from the supply. A damaged supply
cord or extension cord may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
•
Follow instructions for changing accessories.
Improperly tightened blade securing nuts or bolts
may either damage the blade or result in it becoming
detached.
•
Wear eye, ear, head and hand protection. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal injury by flying
debris or accidental contact with the cutting line or blade.
•
While operating the machine, always wear non-slip
and protective footwear. Do not operate the machine
when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This
reduces the chance of injury to the feet from contact with
the moving cutters or lines.
•
While operating the machine, always wear long
trousers. Exposed skin increases the likelihood of injury
from thrown objects.
•
Keep bystanders away while operating the machine.
Thrown debris can result in serious personal injury.
•
Always use two hands when operating the machine.
Holding the machine with both hands will avoid loss of
control.
•
Hold the machine by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutting line or blade may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting line or blades
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of
the machine "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
•
Always keep proper footing and operate the
machine only when standing on the ground. Slippery
or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance or
