Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings - Parkside PHS 450 A1 Originalbetriebsanleitung

tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Look after the power tool and
application tool carefully. Check
for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool's
operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less
Iikely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories
and tool bits etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking
into account the working condi-
tions and the work to be per-
formed. Use of the power tool for op-
erations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grip surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles and grip
surfaces do not permit safe operation
and control over the power tool in un-
expected situations.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced
by a qualifi ed repair person us-
ing only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety
of the power tool is maintained.

Hedge trimmer safety warnings

a) Keep all body parts away from
the blade. Do not attempt to re-
move clippings or to hold onto
material to be cut when the bla-
des are running. The blades conti-
nue to move after turning off the switch.
A moment of inattention when using the
trimmer can result in serious injuries.
b) Hold the hedge trimmer by the
handle when the blade is at a
standstill and make sure you do
not press the switch. Carrying the
hedge trimmer correctly reduces the
risk of inadvertent operation and being
injured by the blade as a result.
c) Always place the protective co-
ver onto the blades while trans-
porting or storing the hedge
trimmer. Careful handling of the
hedge trimmer reduces the risk of injury
from the blade.
d) Ensure that all switches are tur-
ned off and the mains plug is
disconnected before removing
jammed clippings or maintai-
ning the machine. Unexpected
operation of the hedge trimmer when
removing jammed material can lead to
serious injuries.
e) Hold the hedge trimmer only by
the insulated gripping surfaces
as the cutting blades may come
into contact with hidden wiring
or its own cord. The blades coming
into contact with a live wire can also
cause a charge in metal parts of the ap-
pliance and result in an electric shock.
f) Keep all mains cables and lines
away from the cutting range.
Cables and lines may be concealed in
hedges and bushes and be inadvertent-
ly cut by the blade.
g) Do not use the hedge trimmer in
bad weather, especially if there
is a danger of a storm. This redu-
ces the risk of being struck by lightning.
