► If petrol is spilled: wipe up the petrol with a cloth and
wait until all parts of the tiller are dry before attempting
to start the engine.
► Do not smoke.
► Do not refuel in the vicinity of flames.
► Before refilling the tank, stop the engine and allow it to
cool.
► If the tank needs to be emptied: do this out of doors.
► Start the engine at least 3 m away from the refueling
site.

￭ The tiller warms up while working. The petrol expands and
overpressure may occur in the fuel tank. Petrol may gush
out if the fuel tank cap is opened. The gushing petrol may
ignite. This may result in serious injury to the user.
► Allow the tiller to cool down before opening the fuel tank
cap.
￭ Clothing that comes into contact with petrol is highly
inflammable. This may result in serious or fatal injury to
people and damage to property.
► If clothing comes into contact with petrol: change
clothing.
￭ Petrol poses a risk to the environment.

an environmentally acceptable way.

cause irritation.
► Avoid contact with petrol.
► In the event of contact with the skin: wash the affected
areas with plenty of soap and water.
► In the event of contact with the eyes: rinse the eyes with
plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical
attention.
￭ Overflowed petrol may ignite. This may result in serious or
fatal injury to people and damage to property.
► Clean any surfaces contaminated with petrol.
► Avoid attempts at starting until the petrol fumes have
dispersed.
￭ The tiller's ignition system generates sparks. Sparks may
escape and cause fires and explosions in highly
