2.3. SECURITY IN THE WORKPLACE
Do not work with the machine in areas
with an explosive atmosphere or near
inflammable liquids, gases or dust.
Do not start the machine in a closed area.
The exhaust fumes and the vapours of the
petrol all contain carbon monoxide and
other dangerous chemical substances. In case of gas
concentration due to insufficient ventilation, eliminate
from the work area everything that impedes the
correct flow of air and do not work in this area again
until it is well ventilated and the gas concentration
does not happen again.
The area included in a 15m radius around the
machine must be considered risk zone and nobody
should be there while the machine is working and,
when necessary, a cord and warning signals must be
used around the working area
Maintain children and passers-by well clear when
working with the machine. Distractions can cause a
lack of control.
When work is to be performed simultaneously by two
or more persons, always check for the presence and
location of others so as maintain a distance between
each person sufficient to ensure safety.
2.4. SECURITY WHEN USING FUEL
IMPORTANT: The fuel used is highly inflammable. If
the fuel or the machine catch fire, fight the flames
with a dry dust fire extinguisher.
Always avoid eye contact with the fuel and the oil. If
petrol or oil were to come into contact with your eyes,
clean these immediately with clean water. If your eyes
are still irritated, visit the doctor immediately.
Do not refill the machine in a closed area. The petrol
and oil vapours all contain dangerous chemical
substances. In case of gas concentration due to
insufficient ventilation, eliminate from the work area
everything that impedes the correct flow of air and do
not work in this area again until it is well ventilated
and the gas concentration does not happen again.
Gasoline and oil are extremely flammable and
explosive under certain conditions. Do not smoke
while preparing or refueling.
Do not approach any flame or hot element to the fuel.
Do not smoke when handling fuel, when refilling or
when working.
Do not refill fuel in areas where flames,
sparks or hot sources are. Refill only in
ventilated areas with engine off. Do not
overfill the fuel to try to overfill the fuel tank. In case
of fuel leakage, eliminate these before starting the
machine, 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 petrol vapours
have dissipated.
Refill fuel before to start the machine. Do not unscrew
the combustible tank cap while the engine is running
or engine is hot.
