Technical and legal information
10. Fuel vapour pressure may build up inside the fuel tank
depending on the fuel used, weather conditions and the
tank venting system. To reduce the risk of burns and
other personal injuries, remove the fuel cap carefully
to allow any pressure build up to release slowly.
11. Be aware of fire risks, explosion and inhalation risks.
12. Do not smoke while operating the product, handling
fuel or near fuel.
13. Ensure the spark plug lead is secured; a loose lead may
cause electrical arcing that could ignite combustible
fumes and cause a fire or explosion.
14. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel
lines.
15. Do use caution when handling fuel. To avoid any
accidental fires, move the product at least 3 metres
(10’) from the fuelling point before starting the engine.
16. Tighten the fuel tank cap thoroughly after refilling the
fuel tank.
17. Do not operate the product if it is leaking fuel. Do not
remove the fuel tank cap while the engine is running.
18. Use only an approved container for this purpose.
19. Do not store cans of fuel or refill the fuel tank in any
place where there is a boiler, stove, wood fire, electrical
sparks, welding sparks, or other sources of heat or fire
which might ignite the fuel.
20. If any fuel spillage occurs during refuelling, use a
dry rag to wipe up spills and allow remaining fuel to
evaporate before turning the engine on again.
21. If you have spilt fuel on yourself or on your clothes,
change your clothes and wash any part of your body
that has come in contact with fuel before turning the
engine on again.
22. If fuel is ignited, put out the fire with a dry powder fire
extinguisher.
