Safety instructions for machines with a combustion engines
Do not touch the motor and/or the exhaust system during operation or immediately after
switching off the machine! These parts become hot during operation and can cause
serious burns.
Do not touch the spark plug connector when the motor is running (electric shock!).
Do not operate the machine in closed locations or in poorly ventilated rooms unless there
is adequate ventilation by exhaust fans or hoses. (Danger of suffocation by carbon
monoxide!).
Do not smoke while the machine is running.
Do not smoke while refuelling the machine.
Refuel the machine only in well-ventilated areas.
Do not refuel the machine while the motor is running or the machine is still hot.
Do not refuel the machine near open flames.
Do not spill fuel while refuelling.
Do not crank a flooded fuel motor as long as the spark plug is removed - fuel accumulated
in the cylinder will spray out of the spark plug hole.
Do not carry out an ignition spark test on fuel motors if the motor is flooded or there is
a smell of fuel. A stray spark could ignite the fumes.
Do not use fuel or other types of fuel or flammable solutions to clean the machine parts,
especially not in enclosed spaces. The fumes emitted by fuels and solutions may explode.
Always keep the area around the muffler free of any foreign substances such as leaves,
paper, cartons etc. A hot muffler could ignite these substances and cause a fire.
Close the fuel tank cap again after refuelling.
Check the fuel line and tank regularly for leaks and cracks. Do not operate the machine
if leaks in the fuel system are known.
Store fuel only in designated and approved canisters.
