dling fuel;
– add fuel before starting the engine. Never
remove the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel
while the engine is running or when the en­
gine is hot;
– if you have spilt some fuel, do not attempt
to start the engine but move the machine
away from the area of spillage and avoid
creating any source of ignition until the fuel
has evaporated and fuel vapours have dis­
sipated.
– always put the tank and fuel container caps
back on and tighten well.
4) Replace faulty silencers and the guard, if
damaged.
C) OPERATION
1) Do not operate the engine in a confined
space where dangerous carbon monoxide
fumes can collect.
2) Do not use starting fluids or similar pro-
ducts.
3) Do not change the engine governor set­
tings or overspeed the engine.
4) Do not tilt the machine onto its side to pre­
vent fuel leaks from the fuel tank cap.
5) Do not touch the cylinder fins and/or the
silencer guard until the engine has cooled
down.
6) Stop the engine and disconnect the spark
plug cable before checking, cleaning or ser vi-
cing the machine or the engine.
7) Do not crank the engine with spark plug
removed.
8) Transport the machine with an empty fuel
tank.
D) MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1) A routine maintenance is essential for
safety and for keeping a high performance
level.
2) Do not store the machine with fuel in the
tank in an area where the fuel vapours could
reach an open flame, a spark or a strong heat
source.
3) Allow the engine to cool before storing in
any enclosure.
4) To reduce fire hazards, keep the engine,
exhaust silencer, and fuel storage area free
of grass cuttings, leaves, excessive grease or
any other easily inflammable material.
5) If the fuel tank has to be drained, this
should be done outdoors once the engine has
cooled down.
6) On safety ground, never use the engine
with either worn or damaged parts. Parts are
to be replaced and not repaired. Use genuine
spare parts. Parts that are not of the same
quality can damage the engine and impair
your safety.

3.2 ACCELERATOR CONTROL

The throttle trigger (generally a lever), fitted to the
machine, is connected to the engine by a cable (1).
Consult the machine's Instructions Manual to iden-
tify the throttle trigger and its positions, usually
marked by symbols, corresponding to:
CHOKE = to be used for cold starting.
FAST = corresponds to maximum revs;
to be used when working.
SLOW = slowest speed.
STOP = engine stop (if fitted).
