Personal Safety; Power Tool Use And Care - Oregon ST275-GSL Manuel D'utilisation Original

• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the trimmer
may contact hidden wiring. Power tools
contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock

Personal Safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear long pants and foot
protection.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts

of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards
• Prolonged use of power tools has been
reported to cause vascular, muscular, or
neurological disorders (such as vibration
white finger or Raynaud's syndrome).
To reduce the risk of injury, follow these
instructions:
– Wear gloves and keep hands and body
– Maintain a firm grip on the trimmer/
– Take frequent breaks
The vibration in normal use can differ from
the values stated in the "Specifications and

correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed

does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired

source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally
