Husqvarna 120iTK4-P Manuel D'utilisation page 6

• 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.
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.
• 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 irritations or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged 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
temperature above 130 °C / 265 °F 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.
Pole pruner safety warnings - personal safety
• Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
when using the pole pruner. Before you start the
pole pruner, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of inattention while
operating pole pruners may cause entanglement of
your clothing or body with the saw chain.
• Always hold the pole pruner with your right hand on
the rear handle and your left hand on the front
handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed hand
configuration increases the risk of personal injury
and should never be done.
6
• Hold the pole pruner by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Saw chains contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the pole
pruner "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
• Wear eye protection. Further protective equipment
for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended. Adequate protective equipment will
reduce personal injury from flying debris or
accidental contact with the saw chain.
• Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a ladder,
from a rooftop, or any unstable support. Operation of
a chain saw in this manner could result in serious
personal injury.
• Always keep proper footing and operate the chain
saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a
loss of balance or control of the pole pruner.
• When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for
spring back. When the tension in the wood fibres is
released, the spring loaded limb may strike the
operator and/or throw the pole pruner out of control.
• Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings. The slender material may catch the pole
pruner and be whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
• Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning
and changing the bar and chain. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
• Carry the pole pruner by the front handle with the
pole pruner switched off and away from your body.
When transporting or storing the pole pruner, always
fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the pole
pruner will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact
with the moving saw chain.
• Cut wood only. Do not use pole pruner for purposes
not intended. For example: do not use pole pruner
for cutting metal, plastic, masonry or non-wood
building materials. Use of the pole pruner for
operations different than intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
• Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
• Do not attempt to fell a tree until you have an
understanding of the risks and how to avoid them.
Serious injury could occur to the operator or
bystanders while felling a tree.
• This pole pruner is not intended for tree felling.Use
of the pole pruner for operations different than
intended could result in serious injury to the operator
or bystanders.
• We strongly recommend that first time users practice
sawing logs on a saw horse or cradle.
