Specific Safety Rules - Homelite UT60526 Manuel D'utilisation

SERVICE
 Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, shut off the
engine and make certain all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire, and keep the wire away
from the plug to prevent starting.
 Do not use near underground electric cables, telephone
lines, pipes, or hoses. If in doubt, contact your utility or
telephone company to locate underground services.
 If the unit strikes a foreign object, stop the engine,
disconnect the spark plug, thoroughly inspect the
machine for any damage, and repair the damage before
restarting and operating the machine.
 Never leave the operating position when the engine is
running.
 Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug before
unclogging the tines and when making any repairs, ad-
justments, or inspections.
 Do not overload the machine capacity by cultivating too
deep in a single pass or at too fast a rate.
 Stay alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate cultivator when you are tired, ill,
or upset.
 Be aware that the equipment may unexpectedly bounce
upward or jump forward if the tines should strike buried
obstacles such as large stones, roots, or stumps.
 Never operate the equipment on a slope.
 Use extreme caution when pulling the machine towards
you.
 Start the engine carefully according to instructions from
a normal operating position and with feet well away from
the tines. Do not force cultivator. It will do the job better
and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for
which it was designed.
 When not in use, cultivator should be stored indoors in
a dry, locked up place — out of the reach of children.
 Maintain cultivator with care. Keep tines clean for best
performance and reduce the risk of injury. Follow in-
structions for lubrication and changing accessories.
Inspect starter cord periodically and, if damaged, have it
replaced. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from grease
and lubricant.

 Service on the cultivator must be performed by qualified
repair personnel only. Service or maintenance performed
by unqualified personnel could result in injury to the user
or damage to the product.

of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized

REFUELING
 Fuel is highly flammable. Take precautions when using

 Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away from
spark and/or flame-producing equipment.
 Store fuel in containers specifically designed for this
purpose.
 Only refuel outdoors and do not smoke while refueling.
 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 engine is hot.
 If fuel is spilled, 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 fuel vapors
have dissipated.
 Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely.
 When draining the fuel tank, use an approved fuel storage
container while in a well-ventilated area.
 Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this cultivator. If
