1 Safety measures
• Do not smoke if refuelling.
• Avoid spilling fuel on hot surfaces. Spilled
fuel must be cleaned up immediately.
• Do not use petrol or diesel to clean compo-
nents but make use of good quality, non-in-
flammable, non-poisonous solvents that
are available from dealers.
• Always be alert to possible fuel or oil leak-
age!
If you discover a leak, take counter-meas-
ures immediately. If fuel or oil is spilled on
a hot engine, fire can break out. This can
cause physical injury or damage to the
equipment.
• Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is
running!
Only refuel with the engine stopped.
• Never put flammable materials in the vicin-
ity of the engine!
• Keep the engine and engine compartment
clean!
Remove all inflammable materials such as
fuel, oil and other litter before it builds up
in the vicinity of the engine.
• Connecting (emergency) extra starting bat-
tery
Proceed as follows when an extra starting
battery is used to jump start the engine:
- First connect the positive lead
- Lastly connect the earth cable (negative
pole) to the engine block
If this cable is connected in error to the
negative pole of the engine battery, a
spark can occur. The result of this could
be that explosive gas produced by the
battery explodes.
- Once the engine is started, first remove the
earth cable.
