Do not expose the equipment to rain or damp.
If water finds its way into the equipment the risks
of electric shock increases.
3 - Personal safety
Pay attention to what you are doing, with
what happens near you while you're working
and always rely on your common sense.
Do not operate the equipment when you are
tired, distracted or under the influence of drugs,
alcoholic beverages or medication. Any slip of
attention could result in serious injury.
Use personal safety equipment. Always
wear goggles. When you wear personal safety
equipment, i.e. goggles, gloves, shoes, anti-skid
boots and ear protection you increase the level of
safety and reduce hazards.
Prevent accidental operation. Make sure that
the on/off key is in the "off" position before you
plug the cord. Connecting the equipment to the
power source when it is "on" can lead to serious
accident.
Remove unwanted objects before you turn on
the equipment. A tool or any object that might
become attached to the equipment's moving
parts can cause injury.
Do not be over-confident. Keep both feet on
the ground for balance. This also helps you to
control the equipment more efficiently during
unexpected situations.
Dress accordingly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothes away
from the moving parts to avoid them from
becoming entangled.
4 - Operation and safety measures
Don't twist the equipment. Use it correctly
and for the applications described in this
manual for improved performance and safety
while you are working.
Don't use the equipment if the switch
doesn't turn "on" and/or "off". The
equipment can't be controlled if the switch is
damaged. A damaged power switch must be
immediately repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before you do any adjustments, change the
cutting blade and accessories. This safety
measure reduces the risk of accidental operation.
18
When the equipment is not being used,
store it away from children's reach and
don't let anyone who is not familiar with
how it works to operate the equipment.
The equipment can be dangerous when handled
by inexperienced users.
Take good care of your equipment.
Always check if the blade is firmly attached
to the shaft, if there are any damaged parts
or any other problem that could affect
good-operation conditions. If there are any
problems, repair the equipment before using
it. Lack of proper maintenance is the cause of
many accidents.
Keep the cutting blade honed and clean
and the spool supplied with the nylon
filament and ready to be used. Never use
metal wire to replace the nylon filament.
After the equipment is disconnected, the
reel will run for a few seconds until it
stops completely. Remember this whenever
you are doing any kind of maintenance.
Use the equipment and accessories
according to the work and service
instructions that will be done. Using the
equipment for other purposes than those
included in this manual can be dangerous.
Note:
According to the Brazilian standard NBR 5410,
it is compulsory to install a device to protect against
residual defferential current (DR device) in the electrical
installation. The function of the "DR" is to protect the
user against serious electrical shock risk (consult an
electrician).
Warning!
Using the equipment without the protection skirt
is considered loss of warranty.
