25 General and Product-Spe‐
cific Safety Instructions
25.1 Introduction
This section reproduces the general and product-
specific safety instructions prescribed and pre-
formulated in the product standard.
The safety information for avoiding electric shock
given under "Electrical Safety" is not applicable
to STIHL battery products, with the exception of
point c).
WARNING
■ Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustra‐
tions and specifications provided with this lawn
mower. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury. Save all warnings and instruc‐
tions for future reference.
25.2

Work Area Safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate lawn mowers in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
0478-131-9977-A
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Lawn mow‐
ers create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a lawn mower. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
25.3

Electrical Safety

a) Lawn mower plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed (groun‐
ded) lawn mowers. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c) Do not operate the lawn mower when it is
raining or in wet conditions. This may
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the electric cable. Never use
the electric cable for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the lawn mower. Keep the elec‐
tric cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled electric
cables increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a lawn mower outdoors, use
an extension cable suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cable suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a lawn mower in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock.
25.4

Personal Safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a lawn
mower. Do not use a lawn mower while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten‐
tion while operating lawn mowers may result
in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment
such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,
hard hat or hearing protection used for
appropriate conditions will reduce personal
injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
