Maintenance, Repair And Storage; Warnings And Instructions - Stihl MSA 120 C Instruction Manual

English
– Unplug the power supply cord from the outlet when
the charger is not in use.
– Never jerk the power supply cord to disconnect it
from the electrical outlet. To unplug, grasp the plug,
not the power supply cord.
– Do not use the power supply cord for any other
purpose, e.g., for carrying or hanging up the charger.
– Make sure the power supply cord is located or
marked so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over,
come in contact with sharp objects or moving parts,
or otherwise be subjected to damage or stress.
￭ An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Overloading an extension cord can result in
overheating and fire. If an extension cord must be used:
– Use only a properly wired 16 gauge (AWG 16) or
heavier gauge extension cord.
– Never connect more than one charger or other
device to an extension cord.
– Never use an extension cord with a wattage rating
lower than the wattage on your charger's rating
plate.
– Never use an extension cord if the blades on its plug
are different from the blades on the charger plug in
number, size or shape.
– Do not link (chain) extension cords.
￭ In case of fire, or if the charger or the battery it is charging
emits smoke, an unusual smell, feels hot or appears
abnormal in any other way:
– Immediately disconnect the charger from the outlet.
Contact the authorities in the event of fire or
explosion.

maintenance or repair work, before
storing, and any other time it is not in
