7.2 SPECIFIC SAFETY AND ACCIDENT-PREVENTION
RULES
7.2.1 Petrol version
•
If there is a malfunction, and prior to any maintenance, adjustment and
cleaning operations (e.g. removing foreign bodies from the cutting disc),
switch off the motor and remove the spark plug cable.
•
Before setting to work, read this handbook carefully and follow the
instructions in it and the accompanying engine manual.
•
Never use the machine in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas (even if the
doors and windows are open), as the exhaust fumes are toxic.
•
Avoid smoking and lighting flames when filling with petrol.
•
Always fill the fuel tank in an open area with the engine switched off.
Remember that petrol is highly flammable and explosive under certain
conditions. Fuel must be stored in suitable canisters.
•
Never place anything on the engine as it could catch fire.
•
Never remove the fuel tank cap or top up with petrol with the engine
running or when it is still hot.
•
If any petrol gets spilt, do not attempt to start the engine immediately.
•
The exhaust pipe gets very hot when the engine is running and remains
hot for some time after it is switched off. Never touch the exhaust pipe.
Keep to a safety distance.
