Safety Instructions
During the design and production of Husqvarna products, great importance is placed on safety, as well as effective- ness and ease of use. To ensure that the machine remains safe you must pay attention to the following points:
WARNING!
This machine is only intended for use together with a Husqvarna PP 455E or a unit connected to Husqvarna RC 455. All other use is forbidden.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances may the machine be started without observing the safety instructions. Should the user fail to comply with these, Husqvarna Construction Products Sweden AB or its representatives are free from all liability both directly and indirectly. Read through these operating instructions and make sure that you understand the contents before starting to use the machine. Should you, after reading these safety instructions, still feel uncertain about the safety risks involved you must not use the machine Please contact your dealer for more information.
•Check that all couplings, connections and hydraulic hoses are in full working order.
•Make sure that all hoses are connected to the machine correctly before you start the machine.
•Make sure that there are no persons or animals in the working area.
•Check that the guard is not broken and that it is fitted correctly.
•Never cut without using the guard.
•Never disconnect the hydraulic hoses without first shutting off the hydraulic unit and ensuring the motor has stopped completely.
•Check the machine, couplings and hydraulic hoses daily for leakage. A rupture or leak can cause a ”hydraulic fluid injection” in the body or result in other serious physical injury.
•Do not exceed the specified hydraulic fluid flow or pressure for the tool being used. Too high pressure can result in rupturing.
•Do not misuse hoses.
•Do not use hoses that are distorted, worn, or damaged.
•Check that the hoses are connected correctly to the machine and that the hydraulic couplings lock as intended before pressurising the hydraulic system. The couplings are locked by turning the outer sleeve on the female coupling so that the slot moves away from the ball.
•Keep the hydraulic hoses and couplings free from dirt.
•Always switch off the power to the hydraulic unit before moving equipment.
•Always saw in a manner that permits easy access to the emergency stop.
•Never leave the machine unsupervised with the motor running.
•Clearly mark out all cuts to be made before you start sawing, plan these so they can be carried out without danger to persons or the machine.
•Check with building drawings whether electrical cables, water pipes, gas pipes or sewage pipes have been routed within the working area.
•Always check and mark out where gas pipes are routed. Cutting close to gas pipes always entails danger. Make sure that sparks are not caused when cutting in view of the risk of explosion. Remain concentrated and focused on the task. Carelessness can result in serious personal injury or death.
•Check that electrical cables within the working area are not live.
•Hoses that are marked and approved as electrically non conductive must be used when using hydraulic tools on or in the vicinity of electrical cables. The use of other types of hoses can result in serious physical injury or even death.
•Observe care when lifting. You are handling heavy parts, which implies the risk of pinch injuries or other injuries.
•Personal protective equipment and protective clothing as set out in the Operator's manual must always be worn. Never wear loose fitting clothes that can catch in moving parts.
•Only use wire recommended by the manufacturer.
•Never cut without using the cooling water. A poorly cooled wire can result in the segments overheating, which results in greater wear. In the worst case scenario, segments can come loose from the wire and injure persons close to the saw.
