Battery And Battery Charger - Husqvarna 120i Manual De Instrucciones

Chain catcher
The chain catcher is designed to catch the chain if it
snaps or jumps off. This should not happen if the chain is
properly tensioned (see instructions under the heading Assembly) and if the bar and chain are properly serviced
and maintained (see instructions under the heading
General working instructions). (Figure 10)
Right hand guard
Apart from protecting your hand if the chain jumps or
snaps, the right hand guard stops branches and twigs
from interfering with your grip on the rear handle. (Figure
11)
Vibrations
Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more
vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting
with cutting equipment that is blunt or faulty (wrong type
or badly sharpened) will increase the vibration level.
WARNING! Overexposure to vibration
!
can lead to circulatory damage or nerve
damage in people who have impaired
circulation. Contact your doctor if you
experience symptoms of overexposure
to vibration. Such symptoms include
numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,
pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes
in skin colour or condition. These
symptoms normally appear in the
fingers, hands or wrists. These
symptoms may be increased in cold
temperatures.
