Dust Safety

WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• Operation of the product can cause dust in the air. Dust can cause serious injury and permanent health problems. Silica dust is regulated as harmful by several authorities. These are examples of such health problems:
• The fatal lung diseases chronic bronchitis, silicosis and pulmonary fibrosis
  • Cancer
  • Birth defects
  • Skin inflammation
• Use correct equipment to decrease the quantity of dust and fumes in the air and to decrease dust on work equipment, surfaces, clothing and body parts. Examples of controls are dust collection systems. Decrease dust at the source where possible. Make sure that the equipment is correctly installed and used and that regular maintenance is done.
• Use approved respiratory protection. Make sure that the respiratory protection is applicable for the dangerous materials in the work area.
• Make sure that the airflow is sufficient in the work area.
• It is the responsibility of the user to analyse the surface to be treated. The surface may not contain any substances which could pose a fire-, explosion or health risk when treated. The user should make a risk assessment based on the information obtained about the surface to be treated and take proper precautions for the work to be performed.

Noise safety

WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• High noise levels and long-term noise exposure can cause noise-induced hearing loss.
• To keep the noise level to a minimum, do maintenance on and operate the product as given in the operator’s manual.
• Use approved hearing protection while you operate the product.
• Listen for warning signals and voices when you use hearing protection. Remove the hearing protection when the product is stopped, unless hearing protection is necessary for the noise level in the work area.

Personal protective equipment

WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• Always use approved personal protective equipment when you operate the product. Personal protective equipment cannot fully prevent injury but it decreases the degree of injury if an accident does occur. Let your dealer help you select the correct personal protective equipment and when to use them.

Work area safety

WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product.

• Do not use the product in fog, rain, strong winds, cold weather, risk of lightning or other bad weather conditions.
• Keep children, bystanders and animals away from the work area and at a distance of a minimum 5 m/17 ft. from the product.
• Make sure that only approved persons are in the work area.
• Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Make sure that rough surfaces, for example, welded seams or floor joints, do not stop the product.
• Make sure that there are no cables or hoses in the operation direction of the product.
• Make sure that there is sufficient airflow in the work area.
• Make sure that there are no flammable liquids in the work area.
• This appliance is not suitable for use in classified (hazardous) locations, to pick up dusts or liquids of high explosion risk, nor mixtures of combustible dust with liquids.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

Electrical safety

• WARNING: There is always a risk of shocks from electrical products. Do not use the product in bad weather conditions. Do not touch lightning conductors and metal objects. Always use the product as given in this operator’s manual to prevent injury.
• WARNING: Always use a power supply with RCD (residual-current device). An RCD decreases the risk of electrical shock.
• WARNING: High voltage. There are unprotected parts in the power unit. Always disconnect the power plug before you open the door to the electrical box.
• WARNING: Only use the socket outlets on the product for purposes specified in the instructions.

CAUTION: The power supply from the product or generator must be sufficient and constant to make sure that the motor operates without problems. Incorrect voltage causes the power consumption and the temperature of the motor to increase until the safety circuit releases. The dimension of the power cord must agree with national and local regulations. The dimensions of the mains socket must agree with the amperage for the electrical socket and extension cable of the product.
If the power mains have higher system resistance, a short voltage drop can occur when the product is started. This can influence the operation of other products, for example, flicker on the lights.

• The power plug must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
• 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.
• Make sure that the power, fuse and mains voltage are the same as the voltage shown on the rating plate of the product.
• Always stop the product before you disconnect the power plug.
• Always disconnect the power plug during a long product stop.
• Do not use the product if the supply cord or power plug is damaged. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons to avoid a hazard. A damaged power cord can cause serious injury and death.
• Use the power cord correctly. Do not use the power cord to move, pull or disconnect the product. Pull the power plug to disconnect the power cord. Do not pull the power cord.
• Keep the product away from rain. Water that goes into the product increases the risk of electrical shock.
• Always disconnect the power cord before you connect or disconnect the connection for the motor cable and the electrical enclosure.
• To avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
• Make sure that the power supply for the product is supplied by separate transformers that are used for industrial purposes only.

Grounded product instructions

WARNING: An incorrect connection can result in electrical shock. Speak to an approved electrician if you are not sure if your mains outlet is correctly grounded.
Do not do modifications to the power plug from its factory specification. If the power plug or power cord is damaged or must be replaced, speak to your Husqvarna service agent. Obey local regulations and laws.
If you do not fully understand the instructions about the grounded product, speak to an approved electrician.

• Use only grounded outdoor extension cables with grounding plugs and grounding outlets that accept the product power plug.
• The product has a grounded power cord and power plug. Always connect the product to a grounded mains outlet. This decreases the risk of electrical shock.
• Do not use electrical adapters with the product.

Extension cables

• Use only approved extension cables with applicable properties.
• The rated value on the extension cable must be the same or higher than given on the rating plate of the product.
• Use grounded extension cables.
• When you operate the product outdoors, use an extension cable that is applicable for outdoor operation. This decreases the risk of electrical shock.
• Keep the connection to the extension cable dry and off the ground.
• Keep the extension cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. A damaged cable increases the risk of electrical shock.
• Make sure that the extension cable is in good condition and not damaged.
• Do not use the extension cable while it is wound up. This can cause the extension cable to become too hot.
• Make sure that the extension cable is out of the way and the product during operation. This prevents damage to the extension cable.
