Warning Symbols; Electrical Safety - Black+Decker PH5551 Manual De Instrucciones

The vibration level may increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
Residual risks.
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or ac-
u
cessories.
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
u
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
Impairment of hearing.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
u
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially
oak, beech and MDF.)

Warning symbols

The following warning symbols along with the date code are
shown on the tool:
:
Warning! To reduce the risk of injury, the user
R must read the instruction manual.
Do not use the tool in wet conditions or expose it
to rain or high humidity.
Always wear eye protection.
Always wear ear protection.
g
Wear non-slip safety footwear.

Keep bystanders away. Children must always
remain in an area away from where the pole
hedge trimmer is being used
(Original instructions)

from overhead lines.
Disconnect from mains power immediately if
power cord becomes damaged
Directive 2000/14/EC guaranteed sound power.

Electrical safety

#
This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required. Always check that the power sup-
ply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
u
manufacturer or an authorised Black & Decker Service
Centre in order to avoid a hazard.
Using an extension cable
Always use an approved extension cable suitable for the
u
power input of this tool (see technical data). The extension
cable must be suitable for outdoor use and marked ac-
cordingly. Up to 30 m of HO7RN-F 2 X 1.5 mm² extension
cable can be used without loss of product performance.
Before use, inspect the extension cable for signs of
damage, wear and ageing. Replace the extension cable
if damaged or defective. When using a cable reel, always
unwind the cable completely.
Voltage drops
Under certain power supply conditions this product may-
u
cause short-time voltage drops during start-up.
Other equipment may be affected. For example, electric-
u
lights may temporarily reduce in brightness.
Contact the supply authority, if necessary, to determine
u
that the impedance of the power supply is lower than
0.411 ohms. Disturbances are unlikely to occur under this
condition.
Guard against electric shock
Prevent body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
u
(e.g. metal railings, lamp-posts etc.). Electric safety can
be further improved by using a high-sensitivity (30 mA/
30mS) Residual Current Device (RCD).
Features
This tool includes some or all of the following features.
