that the air filter is clean (Fig. 5).

that the clutch lever has free-play (Fig. 6).

STARTING THE PETROL ENGINE
Turn on the petrol cock, push the throttle lever to the midway position and, if the engine is cold,
engage the choke on the carburettor. Start the engine by pulling hard on the pull starter handle
(Fig. 1C, no. 3). Always refer to the instructions in the engine manual.

Push the throttle lever to the midway position (see engine manual), press the decompresser lever
on the engine head until it remains in position and start the engine by pulling hard on the pull
starter handle.
STARTING THE MACHINE
Set the gearbox lever in the desired position. If the gear does not engage immediately, give a few
light touches on the clutch. Press the clutch lever slowly until the machine starts moving.
STARTING WORK
Engage the P.T.O. (Fig. 1A no. 9). Increase speed as appropriate and press the clutch lever to
start work. The machine will start by depressing the lever 12 (Fig. 1A) and then subsequently on
the red lever 2 (Fig. 1A) until it comes into position 2A. By releasing the red lever, the machine will
stop but the engine will keep running and the lever returns back to position 2.
NOTE: to avoid problems to the clutch during the functioning of the machine, please keep the red
lever firmly depressed. Attention! Do not use the machine whilst only partially depressing the red
lever or damage to the clutch may result.
END OF WORK
To turn the petrol engine off, turn the throttle lever (Fig. 1A, no. 1) into position "0" (OFF). To switch
