(garages, galleries, cellars, etc.). When in operation, the engine produces waste heat, resulting in heat-up
of various engine components (exhaust, engine cylinder), which may cause serious burns. These
components may cause fire, when in contact with flammable materials.
DANGER
Petrol fumes are extremely flammable and explosive substances that max cause burns, fire or even
explosion, when handled improperly. Let the engine cool down for 5 minutes before adding petrol into
the tank. Then proceed with careful removal of the tank lid and start pouring the petrol in with caution.
NEVER fill the fuel up to the rim, since petrol warms up during engine operation and swells, which may
result in leakage through the lid and subsequent explosion of fire. NEVER tip the high-pressure device
into such position, where petrol may leak from the tank. NEVER attempt to start the engine with damaged
components in the fuel supply, ignition or safety features.
Push the engine switch
C
and the fuel switch
D
into the
ON (I)
position.
Shift the speed control lever
B
into the
position.
Shift the choke control lever
A
into the
CHOKE position.
Grasp the pump grip with one hand firmly and use the other hand to
hold the starter cord grip.
Pull the starter cord to the point, where you feel resistance from the
engine. Then pull the grip sharply to prevent recoil. If the engine fails
to start on the first attempt, repeat the starting process by pull the
starter grip again.
CAUTION!
The starter cord recoil (engine resistance
against the direction of starter cord pull) will draw your shoulder and hand towards the engine
faster than you are able to release is, this may result in spraining, contusion or breakage of
your limb.
Once the engine has started up, shift the choke control lever
A
into the
RUN position SLOWLY.
ENGINE SHUTDOWN
Engine shutdown comprises the following steps
Shift the engine speed control lever (page 4)
B
to ½ of the turn
towards the position
and let the engine run for at reduced
speed for 15-20 seconds. Then proceed with turning the engine ignition switch
C
and the fuel switch
D
into the
OFF position.
CAUTION
The engine is fitted with the engine oil level sensor (not every model though) to
switch the engine off, when the engine oil drops to hazardous point.
This function does not
substitute the regular inspection of engine oil level.
Disregard to the regular inspections
may result in irreversible damage to internal components of the engine. Such damage is not
covered by the warranty.
NEVER
spray any water on the engine when hot. Such actions may cause ingress of water
into the fuel system or the ignition system. Clean the engine with a damp cloth and compressed
air to remove dust from the air filter compartment.
