Husqvarna 110iL Operator's Manual page 9

• Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions,
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
• Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the
machine is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the
machine during operation.
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine is to
be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones,
and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause
personal injury.
• Before using the machine, always visually inspect to
see that the cutter and the cutter assembly are not
damaged. Damaged parts increase the risk of injury.
• Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working
order and be properly mounted. A guard that is
loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly may
result in personal injury.
• Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked air
inlets and debris may result in overheating or risk of
fire.
• Wear eye protection and ear protection. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal injury.
• While operating the machine, always wear non-slip
and protective footwear. Do not operate the machine
when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This
reduces the chance of injury to the feet from contact
with the moving cutter.
• Always wear clothing such as trousers that covers
the operator's legs while operating the machine.
Contact with the moving cutter or line may cause
injury.
• Keep bystanders away while operating the machine.
Thrown debris can result in serious personal injury.
• Do not operate the machine above waist height. This
helps prevent unintended cutter contact and enables
better control of the machine in unexpected
situations.
• Exercise caution when operating the machine in wet
grass. Walk, never run. This reduces the risk of
slipping and falling which may result in personal
injury.
• Do not operate the machine on excessively steep
slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of control,
slipping and falling which may result in personal
injury.
• When working on slopes, always be sure of your
footing, always work across the face of slopes, never
up or down and exercise extreme caution when
changing direction. This reduces the risk of loss of
control, slipping and falling which may result in
personal injury.
• Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting
area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in
hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut or
damaged by the line or cutter.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the moving
trimmer cutter or line. Do not clear material from the
machine until it has been disconnected from the
1728 - 001 - 30.09.2021
power source. The moving trimmer cutter or line may
result in serious personal injury.
• Carry the machine with the machine switched off and
away from your body. Proper handling of the
machine will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with a moving trimmer cutter or line.
• Only use replacement cutting heads and trimmer
cutters or lines specified by the manufacturer. Do not
replace the trimmer cutters or lines with metal wires
or blades. Incorrect replacement parts may cause
loss of control, breakage and injury.
