Safety Instructions For Extended Hedge Trimmers - Parkside PTHSA 20-Li B3 Originalbetriebsanleitung

c) When transporting or storing the hedge
trimmer, always pull the protective cover over
the blades. Proper handling of the hedge
trimmer will reduce the risk of injury from the
blades.
d) Make sure that all switches are turned off
be fore removing trapped clippings or
servicing the machine. Unexpected activation
of the hedge trimmer when removing trapped
material can cause serious injury.
e) Hold the hedge trimmer only by the insulated
grips as the blade could come into contact
with hidden power lines. Contact between the
blade and a live wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool live and could give the
operator an electric shock.
f) Keep all power cables away from the cutting
area. Cables can be hidden in hedges and
bushes and could be cut accidentally by the
blade.
g) Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather,
especially if there is a risk of a thunderstorm.
This reduces the risk of being struck by lightning.
