lit cigarettes and fireworks whatsoever. Always stop
the engine before removing the filler cap (14 in
Fig. 1) and wait until it is sufficiently cold. Before
restarting the engine, check that there is no leakage
of oil or gasoline, in which case, thoroughly clean
and dry. If you have spilled fuel on machine parts,
then dry them. The tank should never be filled to the
maximum level to prevent fuel leakage.
After placing the machine on a flat surface and have
removed any visitors within range, proceed with the
start-up, operating as follows:
1) Make sure that the two levers (3 and 7 in Fig. 1)
are in a vertical position as shown in Figure 1.
2) Place the throttle lever to the bottom of its stroke
(10 in Fig 1 pos. F) to also enter “the air”.
3) Hold the hand lever of the starter cord of the engine
(12 in Fig. 1) and pull slowly until there is some
resistance. Now pull a strong and decisive tear.
4) Release the cord while you rewind it. In the case
where the engine fails to start, repeat the operation.
ATTENTION
If after several attempts the engine does not start,
call the Customer Service.
During the work, firmly grasp the handlebars to
avoid that the machine can get out of hand and
constantly check that all around the work area there
are no people or animals.
4.3 PROGRESS - ENGAGEMENT OF THE
GEARS
(for WM 600 BR model only)
The engagement of the gears (3 f 1 reverse)
and the feed are obtained in the following way:
1 After starting the engine, take it to the mini-
mum speed and select one of the three available
speeds depending on the work to be done (with
high grass, use the first speed accordingly).
2) Now to forward with the machine, place the palm
of the left hand on the tip of the forward con-
trol lever (7 in Fig. 1), which is still in the vertical
position, and with the fingers press its locking/
unlocking device (8 in Fig. 1).
With the palm of the hand, then slowly bring
down the control lever (7 in Fig. 1) until it rests
on the knob of the handlebar and hold it for as
long as you need; now, the lawn trimmer advan-
ces with the speed selected that can vary only by
acting on the accelerator; to change gear, release
the lever (7 in Fig. 1) and, when the machine is
stopped, select another gear; to advance again
press the lever (7 in Fig. 1) with the same proce-
dure described above.
REVERSE GEAR
To advance into reverse instead, just pull the lever
(9 in Fig.1) and hold it for as long as you need; the
reverse gear is unique and works independently
from the forward gear selected.
For the WM 600 B model (single forward gear only)
to advance, just operate the lever (7 in Fig. 1) always
with the same procedure described above.
ATTENTION
The feed lever (7 in Fig.1) and that of the rever-
se gear (9 in Fig. 1) cannot be operated simulta-
neously; there is a mechanical lock to prevent that
this is possible.
4.4 DURING OPERATION
- When you cross slippery or sinking grounds, drive
slowly.
WARNING
- It is forbidden to walk on soft ground where the
machine could tip; being careful not to trip over
obstacles; if that happens immediately leave the
controls and the machine stops automatically.
- The obstacles must be passed at reduced speed
and any driving reaction must be controlled.
- Do not start the machine abruptly
- Do not transport persons or animals in the ma-
chine.
4.4.1 USE OF THE MACHINES ON SLOPES
- When running on slopes, use only slow travel
speeds by driving at the minimum.
- Never cross more than 30% steep slopes; never
cross slopes with disengaged clutch or gearbox in
neutral, use the braking effect of the engine.
- Park on slopes only if there is no other option.
In this case, always make sure that the machine is
stopped in a correct and safe way.
- Do not move on long and steep side slopes; the
maximum side slopes it is safe to work on is 20%.
- Avoid rapid turns on slopes; they can make the
