Ryobi OHT1855R Traduction Des Instructions Originales page 5

■ Wear heavy, long trousers, boots, and gloves. Do not
wear loose-fitting clothing, short trousers, or jewellery of
any kind. Do not use the product with bare feet.
■ Secure long hair so that it is above shoulder level to
prevent entanglement in moving parts.
■ The use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear
warnings (shouts or alarms). The operator must pay
extra attention to what is going on in the working area.
■ Operating similar tools nearby increases both the risk
of hearing injury and the potential for other persons to
enter your working area.
■ Do not use the product while tired, ill, or under the
influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
■ Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach.
Overreaching can result in loss of balance and can
result in serious injury.
■ Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.
■ Before starting the product, make sure that the cutting
blades will not come in contact with anything.
■ While operating the product, always hold it firmly
with both hands by the two handles. Ensure that the
operating position is safe and secure. The manufacturer
does not recommend the use of steps or ladders. If
higher trimming is required, use an extended-reach
tool.
■ Blades are sharp. When handling the blade assembly,
wear non-slip, heavy-duty protective gloves. Do not
place your hand or fingers between blades or in any
position where they could get pinched or cut. Never
touch the blade or service the product unless the
battery pack is removed.
■ Turn off the product, remove the battery pack, and allow
both to cool down. Make sure that all moving parts have
come to a complete stop:
● before adjusting the working position of the cutting
means
● before servicing
● before clearing a blockage
● before checking, cleaning, or working on the
product.
● before changing accessories
● before leaving the product unattended
● before checking for damage after striking a foreign
object
● before performing maintenance
● whenever the product starts to vibrate abnormally
■ Do not force the product through heavy shrubbery. This
can cause the blades to bind and slow down. If the
blades slow down, reduce the pace.
■ Do not attempt to cut stems or twigs that are larger
than 22 mm thick, or obviously too large to feed into the
cutting blade. Use a non-powered hand saw or pruning
saw to trim large stems.
■ Do not operate the product with damaged or excessively
worn-out blades.
WARNING
If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact, or begins
to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the product and
inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration.
Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by
an authorised service centre.
