SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
6 - Fill the fuel tank away from heat sources and with the
engine stopped (Fig.3). Do not smoke when refueling
(Fig.3).
7 - Do not refuel the engine in an enclosed place or
poorly ventilated areas.
8 - Do not start the engine unless all engine parts are
fitted, including the exhaust system, air filter, filter
covers and starter guard, and only when all parts are
securely fixed in place.
9 - When the engine is idling the coupled attachment
must be stopped. If the attachment is running, adjust
the idle speed screw.
10 - Never attempt to perform maintenance work when
the engine is running.
11 - Do not use the engine if the exhaust system is damaged.
12 - Do not use fuel (2-stroke mixture) to clean the

13 - Keep the spark plug well clear of the spark plug bore
in the cylinder when checking the spark.
14 - Check the power unit daily to ensure that all safety
and other devices are perfectly functional.
15 - Do not use the power unit in enclosed or poorly
ventilated places. Exhaust gas is toxic: contains carbon
monoxide (Fig.4).
16 - When the power unit is running (of when it is stopped
but still hot) keep it well away from inflammable
materials.
17 - Beware of the hot exhaust system and other hot engine
parts.

engine is still hot or when it is running (allow the
engine to cool for at least 2 minutes before refueling).
20 - Do not run the engine in the presence of fuel spills,
perceptible petrol odour or explosion hazards (move
the power tool away from any fuel spills and avoid
the creation of sparks until the fuel has completely
evaporated) (Fig.5).
21 - Do not tamper with the engine settings (run the power
unit at the speed preset by the manufacturer).
22 - Empty the fuel tank before transporting the power
unit over rough road surfaces or long distances.
23 - Store the power unit in a dry place well away from
sources of heat and raised off the ground.
24 - If necessary, the flywheel and clutch must always be
repaired by an Authorised Service Centre to avoid the
risk of breakages resulting in hazardous projection
of objects.
25 - Do not attempt to carry out any servicing or repairs
other than normal maintenance yourself. Refer
exclusively to an Authorised Service Centre.
26 - Please note that the owner or the user is responsible
for any accidents or damage to third parties or their
property.
When the machine is running, grip the front handle
firmly with your left hand and the Power Unit handle
with your right hand. Never use a cross-handed grip.
Left-handers should follow these instructions too.
Check that all parts of the body are kept away from the
blades and muffler.
THESE ARE HOT ENOUGH TO CAUSE BURNS!
