Safety Notices For Petrol-Powered Machines - TECMIX TMX EB 2000 Notice D'utilisation D'origine


The machine's safety devices must not be removed or made unusable.

Carry out work such as retooling, adjusting, measuring and cleaning only when the motor is switched off.

Installations, repairs and maintenance must be carried out by specialists.

All protective and safety equipment must be re-attached immediately after completing repairs and maintenance.

Always turn off the motor before fixing faults.

Look out for damaged parts and protective devices.

Faulty parts must be repaired or replaced by an authorised specialist.

Only ever use original spare parts. Using spare parts that are not original can be a risk for people or cause material
damage.

The machine may only be used for its intended purpose. The user alone is responsible for unintended use of the
machine. The manufacturer is not liable in the event of unintended use.

Safety notices for petrol-powered machines


Internal combustion engines are a particular danger during operation and refuelling.

Always observe warning notices and additionally specified safety instructions.

Non-compliance can lead to severe and even lethal injuries.

When the motor is running, be aware of fumes. These may be odourless and invisible. The motor fumes contain toxic
carbon monoxide. Being in an environment with carbon monoxide can lead to unconsciousness and death.

Never operate the machine close to an open flame.

Do not smoke during refuelling.

Do not spill fuel during refuelling.

Always close the tank filler cap properly after refuelling.

Do not touch the exhaust when the motor is running (risk of burning).

Do not touch the spark plug cap when the motor is running (electric shock).

Leave the machine to cool down before carrying out modifications or repairs and always remove the spark plug cap.

Do not use petrol or solvents for cleaning. Risk of explosion!
Refuelling:
Note: Two-stroke motor, mixing ratio 1:40
FOLLOW THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS!
Be careful and cautious when handling fuels.

The engine must be switched off!

Thoroughly clean the area around the caps, to prevent dirt from getting into the fuel or oil tank.

Unscrew the cap and fill the tank with fuel (fuel/oil mixture) or chain oil as the case may be. Fill up to the bottom edge
of the filler neck.

Be careful not to spill fuel or chain oil!

Tighten the tank cap as far as it will go.

After refuelling, clean the tank cap and surroundings and make sure the cap is sealed!
NOTE:
Always pre-mix the intended oil volume in half of the fuel volume to produce the fuel/oil mixture and then add the remaining
fuel volume. Shake the finished mixture well before filling the mixture into the auger.
It is not wise to add more engine oil than specified to ensure safe operation. This will only result in a higher production of
combustion residues which will pollute the environment and clog the exhaust channel in the cylinder as well as the muffler. In
addition, fuel consumption will rise and performance will decrease.
The storage of fuel
Fuels have a limited storage life. Fuel and fuel mixtures age through evaporation, especially at high temperatures. Aged fuel and
fuel mixtures can cause starting problems and damage the engine.Purchase only that amount of fuel, which will be consumed
over the next few months. At high temperatures, once fuel has been mixed it should be used up in 6-8 weeks.
Store fuel only in proper containers, in dry, cool, secure locations!
Avoid skin and eye contact!
