5. Safety instructions
General safety rules
Understand your machine.
Read and understand the operator’s manual and la-
bels affixed to the machine. Learn its application and
limitations as well as the specific potential hazards
peculiar to it. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls
and their proper operation. Know how to stop the ma-
chine and disengage the controls quickly.
Make sure to read and understand all the instructions and
safety precautions as outlined in the Engine Manufac-
turer’s Manual, packed separately with your unit. Do not
attempt to operate the machine until you fully understand
how to properly operate and maintain the Engine and
how to avoid accidental injuries and/or property damage.
Work area
Never start or run the engine inside a closed area.
The exhaust fumes are dangerous, containing car-
bon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas. Operate
this unit only in a well ventilated outdoor area.
Never operate the machine without good visibility or light.
Never operate the machine on a steep slope.
Always work transversally, not up and down.
Personal safety
1. Do not operate the machine while under the in-
fluence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication that
could affect your ability to use it properly.
2. Dress properly. Wear heavy long pants, boots and
gloves. Do not wear loose clothing, short pants,
and jewelry of any kind. Secure long hair so it is
above shoulder level. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
3. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
4. Safety equipment such as a dust mask, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropriate condi
-
tions will reduce personal injuries.
5. Check your machine before starting it. Keep
guards in place and in working order. Make sure
all nuts, bolts, etc. are securely tightened.
6. Never operate the machine when it is in need of
repair or is in poor mechanical condition.
7. Replace damaged, missing or failed parts before
using it. Check for fuel leaks. Keep the machine in
safe working condition.
8. Never tamper with safety device. Check their
proper operation regularly.
9. Do not use the machine if the engine’s switch does
not turn it on or off. Any gasoline powered machine
that can not be controlled with the engine switch is
dangerous and must be replaced.
10. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and ad-
justing wrenches are removed from machine area
before starting it. A wrench or a key that is left at-
tached to a rotating part of the machine may result
in personal injury.
11. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating the machine.
12. Do not overreach. Do not operate the machine
while barefoot or when wearing sandals or simi-
lar lightweight footwear. Wear protective footwear
that will protect your feet and improve your footing
on slippery surfaces.
13. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the machine in unexpect-
ed situations.
14. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the engine is off
before transporting the machine or performing any
maintenance or service on the unit. Transporting
or performing maintenance or service on a ma-
chine with engine on invites accidents.
Fuel Safety
1. Fuel is highly flammable, and its vapors can ex-
plode if ignited. Take precautions when using to
reduce the chance of serious personal injury.
2. When refilling or draining the fuel tank, use an
approved fuel storage container while in a clean,
well-ventilated outdoor. Do not smoke, or allow
sparks, open flames or other sources of ignition
near the area while adding fuel or operating the
unit. Never fill fuel tank indoors.
3. Keep grounded conductive objects, such as tools,
away from exposed, live electrical parts and con-
nections to avoid sparking or arcing. These events
could ignite fumes or vapors.
4. Always stop the engine and allow it to cool before
filling the fuel tank. Never remove the cap of the
fuel tank or add fuel while the engine is running
or when the engine is hot. Do not operate the ma-
chine with known leaks in the fuel system.
5. Loose the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any pres-
sure in the tank.
6. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than
12.5mm (1/2” below the bottom of the filler neck
to provide space for expansion as the heat of the
engine can cause fuel to expand).
7. Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely
and wipe up spilled fuel. Never operate the unit
without the fuel cap securely in place.
