Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings - Scotts S20600 Manual Del Operador

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
 Use the power tool, 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 power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
 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.
 Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.

HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS

 Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut
when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off
when clearing jammed material. Blades coast after
turn off. A moment of inattention while operating the
hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.
 Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the cutter
blade stopped. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will
reduce possible personal injury from the cutter blades.
 Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the cutter blade may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutter blades contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
 DANGER — Keep hands away from blade. Contact
with blade will result in serious personal injury.
 WARNING — Only use with handle and guard properly
assembled to hedge trimmer. The use of the hedge trim-
mer without the proper guard or handle provided may
result in serious personal injury.
 Use both hands when operating the hedge trimmer.
Using one hand could cause loss of control and result in
serious personal injury.
 Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of serious personal injury.
 Before starting the hedge trimmer, make sure the
blade is not in contact with any object.
 Stop the unit, remove the battery pack, and make sure
the blade has stopped before setting the unit down.
 Never cut any material with a diameter larger than
3/8 in.
 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.
 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.
SERVICE
 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.
 Always stop the motor when cutting is delayed or
when walking from one cutting location to another.
 Keep unit clean of clippings and other materials. They
may become lodged in the cutting blades.
 If hedge trimmer is equipped with a debris remover,
do not use the debris remover as a gripping surface.
 Store the unit inside in a dry place, either locked up
or up high to prevent unauthorized use or damage.
Keep out of the reach of children or untrained individuals.
 Replace scabbard when unit is not in use.
 Never douse or squirt the unit with water or any other
liquid. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from debris.
Clean after each use; see storage instructions.
 Secure the unit while transporting.
 Battery operated units do not have to be plugged into
an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operat-
ing condition. Be aware of possible hazards even when
unit is not operating.
 Remove the battery pack from the tool when not
charging and before cleaning, servicing, storing, re-
moving material from the unit, changing accessories,
or when not in use.
 When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer al-
ways fit the cutting device cover.
 Keep cable away from cutting area. During operation
the cable may be hidden in shrubs and can be acciden-
tally cut by the blade.
