Stihl HSA 60.0 User Manual

■ To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire from
a short circuit:
► Make sure the battery and charger are
completely dry before starting the charging
process.
►
Never bridge the contacts of the charger
with wires or other metallic objects.
► Do not insert any objects into the charger's
cooling slots.
■ The charger heats up during the charging
process. To reduce the risk of fire:
► Do not operate on a combustible surface
(e.g., paper, cardboard, textiles) or in a
combustible environment.
►
Allow the charger to cool down normally.
Do not cover it.
■ Chargers can produce sparks which may
ignite combustible gases, liquids, vapors,
dusts or other combustible materials. To
reduce the risk of fire and explosion:
►
Do not operate in a location where combus‐
tible gases, liquids, vapors, dusts or other
combustible materials are present.
■
Using a damaged power supply cord or plug
may result in fire, electric shock and other per‐
sonal injury or property damage. To reduce
these risks:
► Check the charger’s power supply
cord and plug regularly for damage.
If damaged, immediately disconnect
the plug from the electrical outlet.
►
Have a damaged power supply cord
replaced by an authorized STIHL servicing
dealer.
►
Unplug the power supply cord from the out‐
let when the charger is not in use.
► Never jerk the power supply cord to discon‐
nect it from the electrical outlet. To unplug,
grasp the plug, not the power supply cord.
►
Do not use the power supply cord for carry‐
ing or hanging up the charger.
► Make sure the power supply cord is located
or marked so that it will not be stepped on,
tripped over, come in contact with sharp
objects or moving parts, or otherwise be
subjected to damage or stress.
■
An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Overloading an exten‐
sion cord can result in overheating and fire. If
an extension cord must be used:
►
Use only a properly wired 16 gauge (AWG
16) or heavier gauge extension cord and
the cord length should not exceed 75 ft.
►
Never use an extension cord with a wattage
rating lower than the wattage on your
charger's rating plate.
►
Never use an extension cord if the blades
on its plug are different from the blades on
the charger plug in number, size or shape.
►
Do not link (chain) extension cords.
■ In case of fire, or if the charger or the battery it
is charging emits smoke, has an unusual
smell, feels hot or appears abnormal in any
other way:
►
Immediately disconnect the charger from
the outlet. Contact the authorities in the
event of fire or explosion.

Unintentional starting may result in personal

ing the hedge trimmer or carrying out
any cleaning, maintenance or repair
work, before storing, and any other
time the hedge trimmer is not in use.

each use.
