GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
English – 13
and maintained (see instructions under the heading
General working instructions).
Vibrations
Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more
vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting
with cutting equipment that is blunt or faulty (wrong type
or badly sharpened) will increase the vibration level.
Battery and battery charger
This section describes the battery and battery charger
safety for your battery product.
Only use Husqvarna original batteries for Husqvarna
products and only charge them in an original battery
charger from Husqvarna. The batteries are software
encrypted.
Battery safety
The rechargeable Husqvarna batteries, BLi, are
exclusively used as a power supply for the relevant
Husqvarna cordless appliances. To avoid injury, the
battery must not be used as a power source for other
devices.
• Use the battery in surroundings where temperatures
are between -10
°C and 40 °C.
• Do not expose the battery to microwaves or high
pressure.
• Never clean the battery or the battery charger with
water. See also instructions under the Maintenance
heading.
• Store the battery out of reach of children.
• Protect the battery from rain and wet conditions.

WARNING! Overexposure to vibration
can lead to circulatory damage or nerve
damage in people who have impaired
circulation. Contact your doctor if you
experience symptoms of overexposure
to vibration. Such symptoms include
numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,
pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes
in skin colour or condition. These
symptoms normally appear in the
fingers, hands or wrists. These
symptoms may be increased in cold
temperatures.
!
WARNING! Protect the battery from
direct sunlight, heat or open flame. There
is a risk the battery may explode if it is
thrown into an open fire. There is a risk of
burns and/or chemical burns.
!
WARNING! Avoid all skin contact with
battery acid. Battery acid may cause skin
irritation, burns or corrosive injuries. If
you get acid in your eyes, do not rub but
flush your eyes with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes. See a doctor. You must
wash any exposed skin with copious
amounts of water and soap in case of
incidental contact.
!
WARNING! Never connect the battery
terminal to keys, coins, screws or other
metal as this may short-circuit the
battery. Never insert objects into the
battery's air vents.
Unused batteries must be kept away from
metal objects such as nails, coins,
jewellery. Do not try to disassemble or
crush the battery
