Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings - Worx WG261E Manual De Instrucciones

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.
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 tool in unexpected situations.
5. 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 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 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 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.
6. 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 battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
HEDGE TRIMMER SAFETY
WARNINGS
a) Keep all parts of the body away from the blade.
Do not remove cut material or hold material to
be cut when blades are moving. Blades continue
to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of
inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may

result in serious personal injury.
b) Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the
blade stopped and taking care not to operate any
power switch. Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer
will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and
resultant personal injury from the blades.
c) When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer,
always fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the
hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury
from the blades.
d) When clearing jammed material or servicing the
unit, make sure all power switches are off and
the battery back is removed or disconnected.
Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while
clearing jammed material or servicing may result in
serious personal injury.
e) Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the blade may contact
hidden wiring. Blades contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
f) Keep all power cords and cables away from
cutting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in
hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the
blade.
g) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather
conditions, especially when there is a risk of
lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by
lightning.
h) Check the hedges and bushes for foreign objects,
e.g. wire fences and hidden wiring.
i) Hold the hedge trimmer properly, e.g. with both
hands if two handles are provided.
j) The hedge trimmer is intended to be used by the
operator at ground level and not on ladders or
any other unstable support.
l) Before operating the hedge trimmer, the user
should make sure the locking device(s) of any
moving elements (e.g. the extended shaft
and pivoting element), if any, are in the locked
position.
SAFETY WARNINGS FOR
BATTERY PACK
a) Do not dismantle, open or shred cells or battery
pack.
b) Do not short-circuit a battery pack. Do not store
battery packs haphazardly in a box or drawer
where they may short-circuit each other or be
short-circuited by conductive materials. 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.
c) Do not expose battery pack to heat or fire. Avoid
storage in direct sunlight.
d) Do not subject battery pack to mechanical
shock.
