Personal Protective Equipment - Husqvarna 130C Manual Del Usuario

Take great care when you work on sloping
ground.
• Keep a good balance and a firm foothold at all
times. Do not overreach.
• Always hold the product with both hands. Hold
the product on the right side of your body.
• Keep the cutting attachment below waist level.
• Switch off the engine before you move to another
area. Fit the transportation guard before you
carry or transport the equipment any distance.
• Never put the product down with the engine
running unless you have it in clear sight.
• Stop the engine and cutting equipment before
you remove material that has wound around the
blade shaft. Neither the operator of the product
nor anyone else may attempt to remove the cut
material while the engine is running or the cutting
equipment is rotating, as this can result in
serious injury. The bevel gear can get hot during
use and may remain so for a while afterwards.
You could get burnt if you touch it.
• Watch out for thrown objects. Always wear
approved eye protection. Never lean over the
cutting attachment guard. Stones, rubbish,
etcetera, can be thrown up into the eyes which
can cause blindness or serious injury.
• Sometimes branches or grass get caught
between the guard and cutting attachment.
Always stop the engine before you clean the
product.
• Always slow the engine to idle speed after each
working operation. Long periods at full throttle
without any load on the engine can lead to
serious engine damage.
• Listen out for warning signals or shouts when
you wear hearing protection. Always remove
your hearing protection as soon as the engine
stops.
• Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory
damage or nerve damage in people who have
impaired circulation. Contact your doctor if you
experience symptoms of overexposure to
vibration. These symptoms include numbness,
loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of
strength, changes in skin color or condition.
These symptoms normally appear in the fingers,
hands or wrists.

WARNING:
instructions that follow before you use
the product.
• Always use approved personal protective
equipment when you use the product. Personal
protective equipment cannot fully prevent injury
but it decreases the degree of injury if an
accident does occur. Let your dealer help you
select the right equipment.
• Use a protective helmet where there is a risk of
falling objects.
• Use approved hearing protection that provides
adequate noise reduction. Long-term exposure to
noise can result in permanent hearing
impairment.

you must also use approved protective goggles.
Approved protective goggles must comply with
the ANSI Z87.1 standard in the USAs or EN 166
in EU countries.
