25 General and Product-Spe‐
cific Safety Instructions
25.1
Introduction
This section reproduces the general and product-
specific safety instructions prescribed and pre-
formulated in the product standard.
The safety information for avoiding electric shock
given under "Electrical Safety" is not applicable
to STIHL battery products, with the exception of
point c).
WARNING
■ Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustra‐
tions and specifications provided with this lawn
mower. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury. Save all warnings and instruc‐
tions for future reference.
25.2
Work Area Safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate lawn mowers in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Lawn mow‐
ers create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a lawn mower. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
25.3
Electrical Safety
a) Lawn mower plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed (groun‐
ded) lawn mowers. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b) 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.
c) Do not expose lawn mowers to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a lawn mower will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the lawn
mower. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entan‐
gled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
