Namenska uporaba naprave
1. Uporabljajte primerno orodje. Brezžična kosilnica
z nitjo za travo je namenjena samo za rezanje trave
in manjšega plevela. Ne uporabljajte je v drugačne
namene, npr. za posnemanje robov ali obrezova-
nje žive meje, saj lahko pride do poškodb.
Osebna zaščitna oprema
► Sl.1
► Sl.2
1. Nosite primerna oblačila. Oblačila morajo
biti funkcionalna in primerna, torej se morajo
tesno prilegati, vendar vas ne smejo ovirati. Ne
nosite nakita ali kosov oblačil, ki bi se lahko
zataknili za visoko travo. Če imate dolge lase,
uporabljajte zaščitno pokrivalo.

20 SLOVENŠČINA
2. Med uporabo orodja imejte vedno obute
močne čevlje z nedrsečim podplatom. Tako se
boste zaščitili pred poškodbami in zagotovili
dobro stojišče.
3. Nosite zaščitna očala.
Električna varnost in varnost
akumulatorjev
1. Izogibajte se nevarnemu okolju. Orodja ne
uporabljajte na vlažnih ali mokrih mestih in ga
ne izpostavljajte dežju. Voda, ki bi prodrla v
orodje, povečuje nevarnost električnega udara.
2. Orodje polnite samo s polnilnikom, ki ga je
določil proizvajalec. Polnilnik, primeren za eno
vrsto akumulatorskih baterij, lahko povzroči
tveganje za požar, če ga uporabljate z drugimi
akumulatorskimi baterijami.
3. Električno orodje uporabljajte le s posebej
označenimi akumulatorskimi baterijami.
Uporaba drugih akumulatorskih baterij lahko
povzroči tveganje za poškodbe in požar.
4.
Kadar akumulatorskih baterij ne uporabljate, jih
ne hranite ob kovinskih predmetih, kot so sponke
za papir, kovanci, ključi, žeblji, vijaki ali drugi
manjši kovinski predmeti, ki lahko povzročijo stik
med priključkoma. Kratek stik akumulatorskih
priključkov lahko povzroči opekline ali požar.
5. V neprimernih pogojih lahko iz akumulatorja uhaja
tekočina; izogibajte se stiku. Če pride do nena-
mernega stika, sperite z vodo. Če pride tekočina v
stik z očmi, poiščite zdravniško pomoč. Tekočina iz
akumulatorja lahko povzroči draženje ali opekline.
6. Akumulatorjev ne mečite v ogenj. Celica
lahko eksplodira. Preverite lokalna pra-
vila glede morebitnih posebnih navodil za
odstranjevanje.
7. Ne odpirajte ali preoblikujte akumulatorjev.
Sproščeni elektrolit je koroziven in lahko
povzroči poškodbe oči ali kože. Pri zaužitju je
lahko strupen.
Zagon orodja
► Sl.3
1. Zagotovite, da v delovnem območju 15 metrov
ne bodo otroci ali druge osebe, prav tako
pazite na živali. V nasprotnem primeru prene-
hajte uporabljati orodje.
2. Pred uporabo vedno preverite, ali je orodje
varno za uporabo. Preverite varnost rezal-
nega orodja in ščitnika ter enostavno in pra-
vilno upravljanje sprožilnega stikala/ročice.
Preverite, ali so ročaji čisti in suhi ter preizku-
site delovanje vklopa/izklopa.
3. Pred nadaljnjo uporabo orodja preverite
poškodovane dele. Ščitnik ali drug poškodo-
van del pozorno preglejte, da ugotovite, ali bo
pravilno deloval in služil svojemu namenu.
Preverite poravnanost in zatikanje gibljivih
delov, morebitne zlomljene dele in vsa druga
stanja, ki bi lahko vplivala na njegovo delo-
vanje. Ščitnik ali drug poškodovan del mora
ustrezno popraviti ali zamenjati pooblaščeni
servisni center, razen če ni drugače določeno
v teh navodilih.
4. Motor vključite samo, če roke in noge niso v
bližini rezalnega orodja.
5. Pred zagonom se prepričajte, ali rezalno
orodje ni v stiku s trdimi predmeti, npr. z
vejami, kamni ipd., saj se bo rezalno orodje ob
zagonu zavrtelo.
Način delovanja
1. Naprave nikoli ne upravljajte s poškodovanim
ščitnikom ali ne da bi namestili ščitnik.
2. Orodje uporabljajte samo ob dobri svetlobi in
vidljivosti. Pozimi bodite pozorni na drseča ali
mokra območja, led in sneg (nevarnost zdrsa).
Vedno stojte stabilno.
3. Bodite previdni, da si z rezalnim orodjem ne
poškodujete stopal in dlani.
4. Roke in noge vedno držite stran od rezil, še
posebej, ko izključite motor.
5. Nikoli ne kosite na višini nad pasom.
6. Nikoli ne stojte na lestvi, medtem ko zaganjate
orodje.
7. Nikoli ne delajte na nestabilnih površinah.
8. Ne segajte predaleč. Ves čas stojte stabilno in
ohranjajte ravnotežje.
9. Vedno bodite previdni, kadar stopate po
pobočjih.
10. Hodite, ne tecite.
11. Iz delovnega območja odstranite pesek,
kamne, žeblje itn. Tujki lahko poškodujejo
rezalno orodje in povzročijo, da ga odvrže,
zaradi česar lahko pride do resnih poškodb.
12. Nikoli se ne dotikajte premikajočih se nevarnih
delov, dokler stroja ne izključite iz napajanja in
dokler se premikajoči se nevarni deli povsem
ne ustavijo.
13. Če rezalno orodje zadene ob kamne ali
druge trde predmete, takoj izključite motor in
preglejte rezalno orodje.
14. Pred začetkom rezanja mora rezalno orodje
doseči polno delovno hitrost.
15. Med uporabo orodje vedno držite z obema
rokama. Orodja med uporabo nikoli ne držite z
eno roko. Vedno stojte stabilno.
16. Med uporabo uporabljajte priloženo zaščitno
opremo, npr. ščitnike.
17. Razen v nujnem primeru, orodja nikoli ne
spuščajte in ne mečite na tla, saj lahko s tem
opremo resno poškodujete.
18. Kadar se premikate z enega mesta na drugega,
orodja ne vlecite po tleh, ker bi se tako lahko
poškodovalo.
19. Akumulatorsko baterijo vedno odstranite iz
orodja v naslednjih primerih:
— kadar orodje puščate brez nadzora;
— pred odstranjevanjem blokade;
— pred pregledom, čiščenjem ali deli na
orodju;
— pred prilagajanjem, spreminjanjem doda-
tne opreme ali shranjevanjem;
— kadar se orodje začne nenavadno tresti;
— kadar orodje prevažate.
