GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
14 – English
Battery charger safety
Only use Chargers, Husqvarna QC, for charging the
Husqvarna replacement batteries, BLi.
• Regularly check that the battery charger connection
wire is intact and that there are no cracks in it.
• Never carry the battery charger using the cord and
never pull out the plug by pulling the cord.
• Keep all cables and extension leads away from water,
oil and sharp edges. Make sure the cable is not
jammed in doors, fences or the like. Otherwise it can
cause the charger to become live.
Do not use:
• a faulty or damaged battery charger or never use a
faulty, damaged or deformed battery.
Do not charge:
• non-rechargeable batteries in the battery charger or
use them in the machine.
• the battery in the battery charger outdoors.
• the battery in the rain or in wet conditions.
• the battery in direct sunlight.
Use the battery charger only when the surrounding
temperature is between 5
°C and 40 °C. Use the charger
in an environment which is well ventilated, dry and free
from dust.
Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and maintain your
cutting equipment in order to:
• Reduce the risk of kickback.
• Reduce the risk of the saw chain breaking or jumping
off the bar.
• Obtain optimal cutting performance.
• Extend the life of cutting equipment.
• Avoid increasing vibration levels.
General rules
• Only use cutting equipment recommended by us!
See instructions under the heading Technical data.
• Keep the chain’s cutting teeth properly
sharpened! Follow our instructions and use the
recommended file gauge.
A damaged or badly
sharpened chain increases the risk of accidents.
• Maintain the correct depth gauge setting! Follow
our instructions and use the recommended depth
gauge clearance.
Too large a clearance increases
the risk of kickback.
• Keep the chain properly tensioned! If the chain is
slack it is more likely to jump off and lead to increased
wear on the bar, chain and drive sprocket.
• Keep cutting equipment well lubricated and
properly maintained!
A poorly lubricated chain is
more likely to break and lead to increased wear on the
bar, chain and drive sprocket.
!
WARNING! Minimise the risk of electric
shock or short circuit as follows:
Never insert any object into the charger’s
cooling slots.
Do not try to dismantle the battery
charger.
Never connect the charger terminals to
metal objects as this can short circuit the
battery charger.
Use approved and intact wall sockets.
!
WARNING! Do not use the battery
charger close to corrosive or flammable
materials. Do not cover the battery
charger. Pull out the plug to the battery
charger in the event of smoke or fire.
Remember the risk of fire.
