Personal Protective Equipment - Husqvarna 545FR Manuel D'utilisation

• Do not remove the cut material, or let other persons
remove cut material, while the engine is on or the
cutting equipment rotates, as this can result in
serious injury.
• Always stop the engine and make sure that the
cutting equipment does not rotate before you remove
material that is wound around the blade shaft or
caught between the guard and the cutting
attachment.
• Be careful when you remove material from around
the cutting equipment. The bevel gear gets hot
during operation and can cause burn injuries.
• The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and can
contain sparks. Risk of fire. Be careful around dry
and flammable material.
• Never use the product indoors or in spaces lacking
proper ventilation. Exhaust fumes contain carbon
monoxide, an odourless, poisonous and highly
dangerous gas.
• Stop the engine before you move to a new work
area. Always attach the transport guard before you
move the equipment.
• Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory
damage or nerve damage in persons who have poor
circulation. Speak to your physician if you
experience symptoms of overexposure to vibration.
Such symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling,
tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in
skin colour or condition. These symptoms usually
show in the fingers, hands or wrists. The risk
increases at low temperatures.
