• Avoidtouchinganymachinewhichisincontactwithanyliquids.Neverclipwetanimals.
Any liquid which has got into the machine will lower the electrical insulation. There is then
the danger of an electric shock or short circuit. Only clean the machine when dry using a
brush or the cleaning brush provided.
• Thebatterymustonlybechargedatatemperatureof10°Cto40°C.Lowertemperaturescan
cause dangerous overcharging.
• Theambienttemperaturearoundthebatterymaynotexceed40°C(directsunlight,fire,etc.)
since this could cause the battery to explode.
• Preventmetalandinflammableobjects,etc.frompenetratingtheventilationslotsonthe
charger since this can lead to electric shocks, damage and to the charger catching fire.
• Directlyafterthebatteryhasrundown(clipping),thereshouldbeapauseof15minutes
before recharging so that the battery can cool down.
• Theconnectionapertures/contactsofbothcharger(Illustration1,Item21)andbattery(Illus-
tration 1, Item 24) must always be clean, dry and free from foreign bodies. Check contacts
and connection aperture before starting to charge.
• Nevershort-circuitthebattery.Ashort-circuitproducesoverheatingthroughtheexcesscur-
rent. The battery can burn out or suffer other damage.
• Onlychargeupfullydischargedbatteriesotherwisetheywilllosecapacity.Thebatterymay
only be discharged by running the clipping machine, i.e. run the clipping machine until the
machine switches itself off.
• Beforestartingtowork,checkthatthebatteryhasbeencorrectlyinsertedandthatthesnap
closure is properly secured (Illustration 5, Item 1).
• Neverwrapthepowercablearoundthechargerandkeepthepowercableawayfromhot
surfaces and objects. This may result in breaks and damage to the insulation. The cable
should be regularly checked for damage.
• Switchthemachineoffbeforeinsertingorremovingthebattery(Illustration2,Item2).
• Batterieswhichcannolongerbechargedwilldamagethechargerandmustbereplaced.
• Faultyorused-upbatteriesmustbehandedintothepurchasingpointortoanofficialdispo-
sal centre.
• Openinguporincineratingthebatteryisprohibited.Thiscanleadtoseverecausticinjuryor
injury from explosion. Observe the warning notes on the battery.
• Wearsuitableworkclothes.Donotwearanyloosefittingclothingoritemsofjewellery
which could get caught up in moving machine parts.
• Neverinsertanyobjectintoanyofthemachine’sorthecharger’sapertures.
• Avoidallcontactwiththemovingclipperblades.
• Noisefromthemachinecanworryanimals.Considerableinjurycanbecausedasaresultof
being kicked by an animal or being crushed by its body weight. Tether the animal securely,
approach it from in front and switch the machine on within the animals’ range of vision.
• Animalsshouldonlybeclippedifunauthorisedpersonshavebeenexcludedfromtheclip-
ping area.
• Onlyclipinwell-ventilatedspaces(dust)andnevernearobjectsorgaseslikelytoexplode.
• Dangerofblockage!Themachinemustnotbeoperatedunlessthebladesarefitted.
• Generally,neverplungetheclipperandclipperheadintoliquidssuchaswater,soapywater,
diesel, petrol, etc. This may cause serious injury to mechanics and motor.
