1• YOUR SAFETY AND THAT OF OTHERS
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• Always keep the machine and its different accessories in perfect
working condition.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for greater safety.
• Servicing and cleaning of the mulching mower must always be done
with the engine off. As a precaution, remove the spark plug cap.
• Always use recently purchased petrol. Old petrol could leave gum
deposits in the carburettor, lead to leaks or make the engine difficult
to start. Only buy unleaded petrol as for maxi one month. Store the
petrol in a clean container not used for other purposes.
•
WARNING DANGER :
Petrol is highly inflammable.
• NEVER STORE, OR USE PETROL NEAR A NAKED FLAME or
near devices such as stoves, water-heaters with pilot lights or any
other device liable to produce sparks.
• Always fill in the fuel tank outside a building in an open space. Do
not smoke during this operation.
• Add fuel before starting the engine.
• Never remove the tank filler cap and do not fill up the tank when
the engine is running or still hot. Leave the engine to cool for few
minutes before filling up with petrol.
• Replace the tank filler cap and the jerrican cap correctly.
• Do not attempt to start the engine when any petrol has been spilt,
when you can smell petrol or when other explosive conditions are
present. Remove the mulching mower from the spillage area and
avoid causing any source of ignition until the petrol vapours have
dispersed.
• Do not transport the mulching mower with petrol in the tank or the
feed cock open.
• Do not modify the regulator springs, rods or other parts to increase
the engine speed. Operate the engine at the recommended speed.
• Do not check the spark by removing the spark plug. Use an
approved checking system.
• Do not pull the starter when the spark plug is out. If the engine is
flooded, bring the gas lever to the MAXI position and pull until the
engine starts.
• Do not knock the engine wheel with a hammer or a hard object.
Otherwise, the wheel may break during operation. Have all major
servicing operations performed by an authorised ETESIA mechanic
who has the appropriate tools.
• Do not use the engine without the silencer. Check the silencer
regularly and have it replaced if it’s damaged or leaking.
• Do not touch the exhaust, cylinder or fins when hot. Otherwise, you
may get burnt.
• Do not use your mulching mower in wooded areas, scrub, or on
fallow or grassy land if the exhaust pipe is not equipped with a
spark arrester. (The spark arrester must be kept in good condition by
the owner or operator).
• Do not start the engine when the air filter or air filter cover have
been removed.
• Ensure the engine cannot start accidentally : remove the spark plug
cap when doing any work on the mulching mower.
• Clean the cylinder fins and regulator mechanism of any dirt, residue
of grass and other materials which could alter the engine speed.
• Pull the starter cord slowly until you feel resistance. Then pull it
energetically to prevent recoiling and hurting your hand or arm.

them changed if necessary.
