Precautions when adding fuel
DANGER
！
When adding fuel.
Adding fuel until it comes too close to the top of the inlet may cause the fuel to overflow.
That is dangerous. Follow the instructions in the engine manual about the specified fuel
level.
When through adding fuel, tighten the tank cap securely.
If you use the machine for a long time, be careful to watch for signs of vibration syndrome.
Since this machine vibrates, operation for a long time may have a negative effect on your
body. Take sufficient breaks while working.
Before starting to operate the machine, check for other people or obstacles that are too
close for safe operation.
When starting the engine, the rammer may jump suddenly. Hold the handle firmly with one
hand and pull the recoil starter with the other hand.
Always be careful around scaffolding. Operate the rammer in a stable manner so that it will
not become unbalanced.
During operation, don't let the foot of the machine come too close to your foot. The plate
may smash your foot.
If you encounter any problems or abnormality with the machine during operation, while
moving it or stopping operation, stop work immediately.
Before leaving the machine, be sure to turn the engine off. Also, make sure to turn the
engine off if you want to move the machine. When the throttle lever is in the stop position,
the fuel cock is closed. Do not move the lever away from the stop position.
When lifting the machine by the handle, be careful not to pinch your fingers between the
handle and main body.
Do not allow any open flames nearby
while adding fuel. (In particular,
smoking while adding fuel is strictly
prohibited.)
