Do not use the machine if the engine’s throttle
control does not turn it on or off. Any gasoline
powered machine that can not be controlled
with the engine throttle control is dangerous
and must be replaced.
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from machine
area before starting it. A wrench or a key that
is left attached to a rotating part of the machine
may result in personal injury.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating the machine.
Do not overreach. Do not operate the machine
while barefoot or when wearing sandals or
similar lightweight footwear. Wear protective
footwear that will protect your feet and improve
your footing on slippery surfaces. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the machine in unexpected
situations.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the engine’s
throttle control is off before transporting the
machine or performing any maintenance or
service on the unit. Transporting or performing
maintenance or service on a machine with its
throttle control on invites accidents.
Fuel safety
Fuel is highly flammable, and its vapors can
explode if ignited. Take precautions when
using to reduce the chance of serious personal
injury.
When refilling or draining the fuel tank, use an
approved fuel storage container while in a
clean, well-ventilated outdoor area. 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.
Keep grounded conductive objects, such as
tools, away from exposed, live electrical parts
and connections to avoid sparking or arcing.
These events could ignite fumes or vapors.
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 machine with known leaks in
the fuel system.
Loose the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any
pressure in the tank.
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 and/or sun cause fuel to
expand.
Replace all fuel tank and container caps
securely and wipe up spilled fuel. Never
operate the unit without the fuel cap securely in
place.
Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilled
fuel.
If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the
engine but move the machine away from the
area of spillage and avoid creating any source
of ignition until fuel vapors have dissipated.
Store fuel in containers specifically designed
and approved for this purpose.
Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely
away from sparks, open flames or other
sources of ignition.
Never store fuel or machine with fuel in the
tank inside a building where fumes may reach
an spark, open flame, or any other source of
ignition, such as a water heater, furnace,
clothes dryer and the like. Allow the engine to
cool before storing in any enclosure.
Machine use and care
Never pick up or carry a machine while the
engine is running.
Do not force the machine. Use the correct
machine for your application. The correct
machine will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
Do not change the engine governor settings or
over-speed the engine. The governor controls
the maximum safe operating speed of the
engine.
Do not run the engine at high speed when you
are not tilling.
Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts.
Avoid contact with hot fuel, oil, exhaust fumes
and hot surfaces. Do not touch the engine or
muffler.
These parts get extremely hot from operation.
They remain hot for a short time after you turn
off the unit. Allow the engine to cool before
doing maintenance or making adjustments.
