Personal Safety - Oregon ST275 GSL Manual De Instrucciones

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock
• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the trimmer
may contact hidden wiring. Power tools
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock

Personal Safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury
• 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
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear long pants and foot
protection.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energizing power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury

Important Safety Instructions
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times (Fig. 2). This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations
FIG. 2
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts
• 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
• Prolonged use of power tools has been
reported to cause vascular, muscular, or
neurological disorders (such as vibration
white finger or Raynaud's syndrome).
To reduce the risk of injury, follow these
instructions:
– Wear gloves and keep hands and body
– Maintain a firm grip on the trimmer/
