Tips on brushcutter safety.
WARNING!
The information contained within this safety section is
extremely important. Personal injury to the user and to others may
result if this section is not read and acted upon at all times.
1.
Before starting your brushcutter inspect it carefully to ensure that there are no
loose parts and that it is in good working order.
2.
Be sure of your footing. Always walk, never run, when operating the brushcutter.
3.
Clear the area of any stones, sticks, wire and debris before beginning, and always
ensure that you operate your brushcutter a safe distance away (over 14 metres)
from adults, children and animals.
4.
Keep hands, feet and clothing away from the brushcutter’s moving parts, and
always wear appropriate footwear (avoid sandals or open shoes).
5.
Never put your hands or feet underneath the guard of the brushcutter while the
engine is running.
6.
Be aware that the machine’s exhaust area and other parts of the brushcutter get
very hot during, and right after use.
7.
Turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug cap before cleaning,
transporting or making adjustments.
8.
We recommend you avoid trimming when it is raining, or after nightfall.
9.
Do not fi ll the tank, or start the brushcutter indoors, or in a poorly ventilated area,
as exhaust gases contain poisonous substances and petrol fumes are fl ammable
and dangerous.
10.
Never open the fuel fi ller cap, or fi ll the tank, if the engine is still hot after use. And
please ensure that you securely tighten the petrol cap after fi lling.
11.
Do not transport the brushcutter in a vehicle if there is any petrol in the tank.
12.
Store fuel and oil in a cool well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and not
near gas cylinders or hot water heater systems.
13.
Do not smoke when fi lling the fuel tank, using the machine, or when petrol is in the
immediate area. And never use or store the brushcutter near a naked fl ame.
14.
Sanli recommends that you wear ear protectors, safety goggles and safety boots
when using a brushcutter.
15.
