Battery / Battery Charger; Environmental Protection; Getting To Know The Machine; Description Of The Machine And Planned Use - Stiga MP1 500 Li D48 Serie Manual De Instrucciones

The noise and vibration levels shown in these
instructions are the maximum levels for use of the
machine. The use of an unbalanced cutting element,
the excessive speed of movement, or the absence of
maintenance have a significant influence on noise
emissions and vibrations. Consequently, it is necessary
to take preventive steps to eliminate possible damage
due to high levels of noise and stress from vibration;
Maintain the machine well, wear ear protection devices,
and take breaks while working.
Storage
• To reduce fire risks, do not leave containers
with debris inside a room.

BATTERY / BATTERY CHARGER

IMPORTANT The following safety instructions
are in addition to the safety requirements
provided in the specific battery and battery
charger manual delivered with this machine.
• Only use battery chargers recommended by the
manufacturer to recharge batteries. An inadequate
battery charger may cause electric shock, overheating
or corrosive liquid to leak from the battery.
• Use only batteries specifically designed for
your power tool. The use of other batteries
may cause injuries and fire risks.
• Make sure that the machine is switched off before
inserting the battery. Inserting a battery in a
machine which is switched on can cause a fire.
• Keep all unused batteries at a distance from
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects as contact with the same
can cause short circuits. Short circuits between
battery contacts can lead to explosion or fires.
• Never use the battery charger in environments in
the presence of vapours, flammable substances
or on easily flammable surfaces such as
paper, fabric, etc. The battery charger heats
up during recharging and may cause a fire.
• When transporting accumulators, make sure the
contacts never come into contact with each other
and never use metal containers to transport them.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Safeguarding the environment must be a relevant
and priority aspect of machine use, of benefit to
the community and the environment we live in.
• Avoid being a disturbance to the neighbourhood.
Use this machine at reasonable times of the
day only (not early morning or late evening
when the noise could cause disturbance).
• Comply with local regulations for the disposal of
packaging, deteriorated parts or any elements
with a strong environmental impact; this waste
must not be disposed of with regular waste,
but must be separated and taken to collection
centres, who will recycle the materials.
• Comply with local regulations for the
disposal of waste materials.
• When the machine is withdrawn from service,
do not dispose of it in the environment, but take
it to a waste disposal facility in accordance
with the local regulations in force.
Do not throw electrical equipment away with
domestic waste. According to the European
Directive 2012/19/EU on electrical and electronic
equipment waste and its implementation
in compliance with national standards, old
electrical equipment must be collected separately, for
eco-compatible recycling. If electrical equipment is
disposed of in dumps or in landfills, hazardous substances
can leak into the groundwater and contaminate the food
chain, damaging your health and well-being. For further
information on the disposal of this product, contact
your dealer or a domestic waste collection service.
At the end of their working life, dispose
of batteries paying due attention to
the environment. Batteries contain
material classified as hazardous for
you and the environment. They must be
removed and disposed of separately at
a facility that accepts lithium-ion batteries.
Separate waste collection of the products
and packaging used allows the materials to
be recycled and reused. Reuse of recycled
materials help to prevent environmental pollution
and reduces the demand for raw materials.
