– if you have spilt some fuel, do not attempt to start the en-
gine but move the machine away from the area of
spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition until
the fuel has evaporated and fuel vapours have dissi-
pated;
– immediately clean up all traces of fuel spilt on the ma-
chine or on the ground;
– never start the machine in the same place you refilled it
with fuel;
– make sure your clothing does not come into contact with
the fuel, on the contrary, change your clothes before
starting the engine;
– always put the tank and fuel container caps back on and
tighten well.
3) Replace faulty or damaged silencers.
4)
Before using the machine,
check its general condi-
tion and in particular:
– the throttle trigger and the safety lever must move freely,
they must not need forcing and should return automat-
ically and rapidly back to the neutral position;
– the throttle trigger must remain locked until the safety
lever is pressed;
– the engine stop switch must easily move from one po-
sition to the other;
– the electric cables and in particular the spark plug cable
must be in perfect condition to avoid the generation of
any sparks, and the cap must be correctly fitted on the
spark plug;
– the machine handgrips and protection devices must be
clean and dry and well fastened to the machine;
– the chain brake must be in perfect working order;
– the bar and the chain must be fitted correctly;
– the chain must be tensioned correctly.
5) Before starting your work, make sure that all the pro-
tection devices are correctly fitted.
C) OPERATION
1) Do not operate the engine in a confined space where
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
Make sure air circulates when working in pits, holes or sim-
ilar.
2) Work only in daylight or good artificial light.
3)
Take on a firm and well-balanced position:
– where possible, avoid working on wet, slippery ground
or in any case on uneven or steep ground that does not
guarantee stability for the operator;
– avoid using unstable ladders or platforms;
– do not work with the machine above your shoulders;
– never run, but walk carefully paying attention to the lay
of the land and any eventual obstacles.
– avoid working alone or in an isolated place, in case you
have to find help after an accident.
4) Make sure the machine is securely locked when you
start the engine:
– start the motor in an area at least 3 metres from where
you refuelled;
– check that there are no persons in the vicinity of the ma-
chine;
– do not direct the silencer and therefore the exhaust
fumes towards inflammable materials.
– watch out for flying debris caused by the movement of
the chain, especially when it hits obstacles or foreign ob-
jects.
5)
Do not change the engine tuning
and do not rev the
engine excessively at maximum speed.
6) Do not strain the machine too much and do not use a
small chain-saw for heavy-duty sawing. If you use the
right machine, you will reduce the risk of hazards and im-
prove the quality of your work.
7) Check that when the machine is running idle, there is
no movement of the chain and, after pressing the throttle
trigger, the engine quickly returns to minimum speed.
8) Take care not to hit the bar hard against foreign objects
or flying debris caused by the movement of the chain.
9)
Stop the engine
:
– whenever you leave the machine unattended;
– before refuelling.
10)
Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug
cable
:
– before cleaning, checking or working on the machine;
– after striking a foreign object. Inspect the machine for
any damage and make repairs before restarting it again;
– if the machine begins to abnormally vibrate (Immediate
look for the cause of the vibrations and take for neces-
sary controls at a Specialised Centre).
– when the machine is not in use.
11) Avoid exposure to dust and sawdust produced by
the chain when cutting.
D) MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1) Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tightly fastened to be
sure the equipment is in safe working condition.
Routine
maintenance is essential for safety and for main-
taining a high performance level
.
2) Do not store the machine with fuel in the tank in an area
where the fuel vapours could reach an open flame, a
spark or a strong heat source.
3) Allow the engine to cool before storing in any en-
closure.
4) To reduce fire hazards, keep the engine, exhaust si-
lencer and fuel storage area free from sawdust, branches,
leaves, or excessive grease; never leave containers with
the cut debris inside the storage area.
5) Se il serbatoio deve essere svuotato, effettuare questa
operazione all’aperto e a motore freddo.
6)
If the fuel tank has to be emptied, this should be
done outdoors once the engine has cooled down
.
7)
Make sure the chain is well sharpened
. Any work on
the chain and bar require specific experience and special
tools. For safety purposes, we recommend you contact
your dealer to ensure work is done correctly.
8)
For safety reasons, never use the machine with
worn or damaged parts. Damaged parts are to be re-
placed and never repaired. Only use original spare
parts.
Parts that are not of the same quality can seriously
damage the equipment and compromise safety.
9) Before putting the machine away, check you have re-
moved wrenches or tools used for maintenance.
10) Store the machine out of the reach of children!
E) TRANSPORTATION AND HANDLING
1) Whenever the machine is to be handled or transported
you must:
– turn off the engine, wait for the chain to stop and dis-
connect the spark plug cap;
– mount the bar cover;
– only hold the machine using the handgrips and position
the bar in the opposite direction to that used during op-
eration.
2) When using a vehicle to transport the machine, posi-
tion it so that it can cause no danger to persons and fas-
ten it firmly in place to avoid it from tipping over, which may
cause damage or fuel spillage.
