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 whilst working.
Storage
• To reduce fire risks, do
not leave containers with
debris inside a room.
2.5 RESIDUAL RISKS
Despite compliance with all
safety prescriptions, some
further hazards may remain:
– danger of injuries to fingers
and hands if caught in the
rotation of the cutting line;
– danger of injuries to feet if
struck by the cutting line,
– stones and soil projections.
2.6 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.
• Do not use the battery
charger in places where
there are inflammable
vapours, substances or
on easily inflammable
surfaces like paper, fabric,
etc. During recharge, the
battery charger becomes
heated and may cause fire.
• When transporting batteries,
do not allow the contacts ever
to come into contact with each
other and never use metal
containers to transport them.
2.7 ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
Protecting the environment must
be a significant and top priority
for machine use, to the benefit
of civil co-habitation and of the
environment that we live in.
• Avoid being an element of
disturbance to the surrounding
