CAUTION! The following states how
damage to the equipment and possi-
ble injury to people can be avoided:
Taking care of the equipment:
•
Ensure that the ventilation openings are
not clogged.
•
Only use spare parts and accessories
that have been supplied or recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
•
Never try to repair the equipment your-
self. All work that has not been listed in
these Instructions must only be carried
out by an authorised servicing agency.
•
Treat the equipment with the greatest
care. Always keep the equipment clean
for better and safer work. Follow the
maintenance instructions.
•
Never overload the equipment. Always
work within the stated capacity range.
Do not use low-power machines for
heavy-duty work. Do not operate the
equipment for purposes for which it is
not intended.
•
Always inspect the equipment before it
is to be used. Do not operate the equip-
ment if safety devices, parts of the cut-
ting device or bolts are missing, worn
out or damaged.
Electrical safety:
CAUTION! The following states how
to avoid accidents and injuries due
to electric shock:
• Before each usage, check the mains
power cable and the extension cable for
damage and signs of aging. Do not use
the device if the cable is damaged or
worn.
•
Always keep the extension cable well
away from the cutting tools.
Should the power cable become dam-
44
aged during work, then instantly discon-
nect the power cable from the mains.
DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER CABLE
BEFORE IT HAS BEEN DISCON-
NECTED FROM THE MAINS!
•
If the power cable for this equipment is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent hazards.
•
Check that the mains voltage is the
same as indicated on the rating plate.
•
Wherever possible connect the equip-
ment to a power socked with a residual-
current circuit breaker that has a rated
current of not more than 30 mA.
•
Protect the equipment from moisture.
The equipment must not be moist nor
operated in a moist environment.
•
Always check the equipment, power
cable and plug for damage before oper-
ating the equipment. Avoid body contact
with earthed parts (e.g. metal fences,
metal posts).
•
Only use extension cables with a maxi-
mum length of 75 m that have been ap-
proved for open-air use. The stranded
cord diameter of the extension cable
must be at least 1.5 mm
a cable drum to its full length so that the
entire cable can be inspected for dam-
age.
•
Never pass an operating equipment
over the extension cable. Ensure that
the power cable is always trailing be-
hind the operator.
•
Use the envisaged cable suspensions
when attaching an extension cable.
•
Never carry the equipment by its power
cable. Never pull the cable to discon-
nect the plug from the mains socket.
Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
