Stihl BR 500 Manual De Instrucciones página 6

Clothing must be sturdy
and snug-fitting, but allow
complete freedom of
movement.
Avoid loose-fitting jackets,
scarfs, neckties, jewelry,
flared or cuffed pants,
unconfined long hair or
anything that could
become drawn into the air
intake. Secure hair so it is above
shoulder level.
Good footing is very
important. Wear sturdy
boots with nonslip soles.
Do not wear sandals or go
barefoot.

Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury when the
inhalation of dust cannot be substantially
controlled use an appropriate respirator
for the material being blown. For more
information see the "Working conditions"
section of these Safety Precautions.

power tool parts see the chapter on
"Parts and Controls."
!
Warning!
Never modify this power tool in any way.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL or
expressly approved by STIHL for use
with the specific STIHL model are
authorized. Although certain
unauthorized attachments are useable
with STIHL power tools, their use may, in
fact, be extremely dangerous.
If this tool is subjected to unusually high
loads for which it was not designed (e.g.
heavy impact or a fall), always check
that it is in good condition before
continuing work. Check in particular that
the fuel system is tight (no leaks) and
that the controls and safety devices are
working properly. Do not continue
operating this machine if it is damaged.
In case of doubt, have it checked by your
STIHL servicing dealer.

Warning!
Small particles (e.g. dust) blown through
the blower tubes and nozzle can cause
a static charging of the blower tubes.
This is especially true in low humidity
and high dust conditions. In order to
reduce the risk of shock from static
charging and subsequent injury from
loss of control, your blower has features
designed to help reduce the build up of
static electricity in the blower tubes and
equalize the charge with the engine and/
or operator:
The control handle is designed to
conduct static electricity through the
throttle cable to the engine and from the
handle through the operator to the
ground.
