Taking care of the equipment:
•
Ensure that the ventilation open-
ings are not clogged.
•
Only use spare parts and acces-
sories that have been supplied
or recommended by the manu-
facturer.
•
Never try to repair the equip-
ment yourself. All work that has
not been listed in these Instruc-
tions 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 mainte-
nance 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 equip-
ment for purposes for which it is
not intended.
•
Always inspect the equipment
before it is to be used. Do not
operate the equipment if safety
devices, parts of the cutting de-
vice or bolts are missing, worn
out or damaged.
Electrical safety:
CAUTION! The following
states how to avoid accidents
and injuries due to electric
shock:
•
Never cross the extension cable
while the device is operating.
Always keep the extension cable
behind the device operator.
Should the power cable be-
come damaged during work,
then instantly disconnect the
power cable from the mains.
DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER
CABLE BEFORE IT HAS BEEN
DISCONNECTED FROM THE
MAINS! Risk of electric shock.
•
Before each usage, check the
mains power cable and the exten-
sion cable for damage and signs
of aging. Do not use the device
if the cable is damaged or worn.
Damaged mains power cables
increase the risk of electric shock.
•
If the power cable for this equip-
ment 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 rat-
ing plate.
•
Connect the equipment 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. Water entry
into the equipment increases the
risk of electric shock.
•
Avoid body contact with earthed
parts (e.g. metal fences, metal
posts). There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed.
•
Only use extension cables with
a maximum length of 75 m that
have been approved for open-air
use. The stranded cord diameter
of the extension cable must be
at least 2.5 mm
