Specific Safety Rules And Symbols - Hitachi CG 18DSDL Instructions De Sécurité Et Mode D'emploi

6) Service
a) Have your gardening appliance serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the
gardening appliance is maintained.
WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known [to the State of California]
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
● Lead from lead-based paints,
● Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
● Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND SYMBOLS

1. Hold gardening appliances by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal
parts of the gardening appliance "live" and shock
the operator.
2. ALWAYS wear ear protectors when using the
gardening appliance for extended
periods.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise can cause hearing loss.
3. NEVER place hands or other body parts near the
moving parts during operation. Hold the grass
trimmer by its handle only.
4. Because the cordless grass trimmer operates by
battery power, be aware of the fact that it can begin
to operate at any time.
5. When working at elevated locations, clear the area
of all other people and be aware of conditions
below you.
6. NEVER touch moving parts.
NEVER place your hands, fingers or other body
parts near the gardening appliance's moving parts.
7. NEVER operate without all guards in place.

resuming operation of the gardening appliance.
8. Use right gardening appliance.

15. Carefully handle gardening appliances.
Should a gardening appliance be dropped or struck
against hard materials inadvertently, it may be
