Stihl BR 350 Manual De Instrucciones página 9

Wrap your fingers tightly around the
handle, keeping the control handle
cradled between your thumb and
forefinger. Keep your hand in this
position to have your machine under
control at all times.
Warning!
Special care must be taken in slippery
conditions (wet ground) and in difficult,
overgrown terrain. Watch for hidden
obstacles such as tree stumps, roots,
rocks, holes and ditches to avoid stum-
bling. For better footing, clear away
fallen branches, scrub and cuttings. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground.
To reduce the risk of stumbling and loss
of control, do not walk backward while
operating the machine.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, never work on a ladder or on
any other insecure support.
Working Conditions
Operate and start your power tool only
outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.

Warning!
As soon as the engine is
running, this product gen-
erates toxic exhaust
fumes containing chemi-
cals, such as unburned
hydrocarbons (including
benzene) and carbon monoxide, that
are known to cause respiratory prob-
lems, cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Some of the gases
(e.g. carbon monoxide) may be color-
less and odorless. To reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury/illness from inhal-
ing toxic fumes, never run the machine
indoors or in poorly ventilated locations.
If exhaust fumes become concentrated
due to insufficient ventilation, clear
obstructions from work area to permit
proper ventilation before proceeding
and/or take frequent breaks to allow
fumes to dissipate before they become
concentrated.
Warning!
Inhalation of certain dusts, especially
organic dusts such as mold or pollen,
can cause susceptible persons to have
an allergic or asthmatic reaction. Sub-
stantial or repeated inhalation of dust
and other airborne contaminants, in par-
ticular those with a smaller particle size,
may cause respiratory or other ill-
nesses. This includes wood dust,
especially from hardwoods, but also
from some softwoods such as Western
Red Cedar. Control dust at the source
where possible. Use good work prac-
tices, such as operating the unit so that
the wind or operating process directs
any dust raised by the power tool away
from the operator. Follow the recom-
mendations of EPA/OSHA/NIOSH and
occupational and trade associations
with respect to dust ("particulate mat-
ter"). When the inhalation of dust cannot
be substantially controlled, i.e., kept at
or near the ambient (background) level,
the operator and any bystanders should
wear a respirator approved by
NIOSH/MSHA for the type of dust
encountered.
Warning!
If the substance being blown is a com-
mercial substance, review the material
safety data sheet for that substance and
/ or consult the material manufacturer /
supplier. The state of California and
some other authorities, for instance,
have published lists of substances
known to cause cancer, reproductive
toxicity, etc.
