ELECTRIC GARDENING TOOL SAFETY
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
General Electric Gardening Tool Safety Warnings – Work Area Safety
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the liquids, fumes or dust.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
GENERAL ELECTRIC GARDENING TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
– ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Battery charger plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) chargers. Unmodied
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as water pipes.
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools, battery chargers or batteries to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the tool, chargers or batteries will increase the risk
of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the power cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the charger. Keep the power cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges,
and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating the charger outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
Never operate a power tool in the rain.
If operating a charger in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current
device (RCD) protected supply. An RCD is also known as a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) or earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB). Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
GENERAL ELECTRIC GARDENING TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
– PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, be aware of your surroundings, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you
are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes or boots, sturdy gloves,
durable long pants, long sleeve shirt and hearing protection will reduce the risk
of personal injuries.
