Personal Safety - Husqvarna DE 110 SH Bedienungsanweisung

• The plug on the supply cord of the appliance must
match the outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Do not use adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
reduce risk of electric shock.
• Insert the plug in a suitable earthed/grounded power
outlet which has been correctly and safely installed
and is in compliance with local regulations. If you
are in doubt about the effectiveness of the power
outlet's earth/ground connection, have it checked by
a qualified specialist.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, cookers, stoves
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Check to ensure that the supply cord does not lie in
a puddle of water.
• Check the appliance's supply cord at regular
intervals and have it replaced by the manufacturer or
his agent if damage is found. Check extension cords
at regular intervals and replace them if found to be
damaged.
• Do not touch the supply cord or extension cord if
they are damaged while working. Disconnect the
supply cord plug from the power outlet. Damaged
supply cords or extension cords present a risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the appliance. Keep
the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
• When operating an electric appliance outdoors, use
only extension cords of a type suitable for outdoor
use. Use of an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock.
• In the event of an interruption in the electric supply,
switch the appliance off and unplug it from the power
outlet.
• Never operate the appliance when it is dirty or wet.
Dust (especially dust from conductive materials) or
dampness adhering to the surface of the appliance
may, under unfavorable conditions, lead to electric
shock. Dirty or dusty appliances should thus be
checked by an approved service agent at regular
intervals, especially if used frequently for working on
conductive materials.
• If operating an appliance in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of a RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
• Do periodic electrical safety tests on the product.
Refer to local regulations for the correct procedure.

Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating the product. Do not
use the product while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
6
of inattention while operating the product may result
in serious personal injury.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source,
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying the product
with your finger on the switch or energising product
that have the switch on invites accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the product on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the product may result in personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the
product in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Product use and care
• Do not force the product. Use the correct product
for your application. The correct product will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
• Do not use the product if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any product that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source, if
detachable, from the product before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the
product. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the product accidentally.
• Store idle the product out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the product
or these instructions to operate the product. The
product is dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
• Maintain the product and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
product´s operation. If damaged, have the product
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained product.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
