English 24 General Power Tool Safety Warnings
d)Unused electric power tools must be stored out of the
reach of children. Do not let anyone use the electric power
tool who is not familiar with it or has not read the
instructions and advice. Electric power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e)Maintain electric power tools and accessories with care.
Check for misalignment or jamming of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect
the functionality of the electric power tool. If damaged,
have the electric power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained electrical
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools clean and sharp. Carefully maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam
and are easier to control.
g)Use the electric power tool, accessories, tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the electric power tool for operations different from
those intended may result in a hazardous situation.
h)Keep handles and grip surfaces dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery handles and grip surfaces doe not
allow proper operation and control of the electric power
tool in unforeseen situations.
24.6 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 power tools 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 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 behaviour 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 (265 °F) 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.
24.7 Service
a)Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure
that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b)Never service damaged batteries. Service of battery
packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
24.8 Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings
General safety warnings for hedge trimmers
a)Keep all parts of your body away from the blade. Do not
attempt to remove cut material or hold material to be cut
while the blade is running. The blades continue to run
after the trimmer is switched off. A moment of inattention
while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious
personal injury.
b)Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle without touching
the power switch with the cutting blade stopped. Carrying
the hedge trimmer correctly reduces the risk of accidental
startup and the resulting injury from the blade.
