• 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 ac-
cidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
aged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• 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.
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.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
BRUSH CUTTERS
General brush cutter safety warnings:
• Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions,
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
• Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where
the machine is to be used. Wildlife may be injured
by the machine during operation.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine
is to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires,
bones, and other foreign objects. Thrown objects
can cause personal injury.
• Before using the machine, always visually inspect
to see that the cutter or blade and the cutter or
blade assembly are not damaged. Damaged parts
increase the risk of injury.
• Follow instructions for changing accessories.
Improperly tightened blade securing nuts or bolts
may either damage the blade or result in it becoming
detached.
• The rated rotational speed of the blade must be
at least equal to the maximum rotational speed
marked on the machine. Blades running faster than
their rated rotational speed can break and fly apart.
• Wear eye, ear, head and hand protection. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal injury by
flying debris or accidental contact with the cutting
line or blade.
• While operating the machine, always wear safety
footwear. Do not operate the machine when
barefoot or wearing open sandals. This reduces
the chance of injury to the feet from contact with a
moving cutter, line or blade.
• While operating the machine, always wear long
trousers. Exposed skin increases the likelihood of
injury from thrown objects.
• Keep bystanders away while operating the ma-
chine. Thrown debris can result in serious personal
injury.
• Always use two hands when operating the
machine. Holding the machine with both hands will
avoid loss of control.
• Hold the machine by the insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutting line or blade
may contact hidden wiring. Cutting line or blades
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the machine "live" and could give the operator
an electric shock.
• Always keep proper footing and operate the
machine only when standing on the ground.
Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of
balance or control of the machine.
• Do not operate the machine on excessively steep
slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of control,
slipping and falling which may result in personal
injury.
• When working on slopes, always be sure of your
footing, always work across the face of slopes,
never up or down and exercise extreme caution
when changing direction. This reduces the risk of
loss of control, slipping and falling which may result
in personal injury.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter,
line or blade when the machine is operating.
Before you start the machine, make sure the
cutter, line or blade is not contacting anything.
A moment of inattention while operating the machine
may result in injury to yourself or others.
• Do not operate the machine above waist height.
This helps prevent unintended cutter or blade
contact and enables better control of the machine
in unexpected situations.
• When cutting brush or saplings that are under
tension, be alert for spring back. When the tension
in the wood fibres is released, the brush or sapling
may strike the operator and/or throw the machine
out of control.
• Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings. The slender material may catch the blade
and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
• Maintain control of the machine and do not touch
cutters, lines or blades and other hazardous
moving parts while they are still in motion. This
reduces the risk of injury from moving parts.
• Carry the machine with the machine switched
off and away from your body. Proper handling of
the machine will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with a moving cutter, line or blade.
• When transporting or storing the machine, always
fit the cover on metal blades. Proper handling of
the machine will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with the blade.
• Only use replacement cutters, lines, cutting
heads and blades specified by the manufacturer.
Incorrect replacement parts may increase the risk
of breakage and injury.
• When clearing jammed material or servicing
the machine, make sure the switch is off and
the battery pack is removed. Unexpected starting
of the machine while clearing jammed material or
servicing may result in serious personal injury.
