REFUELLING
Never smoke whilst refu-
elling and avoid inhaling the petrol fumes.
Carefully open the tank
top as pressure could have formed inside.
Before refuelling:
– Shake the fuel mixture container well.
– Place the machine on a flat stable surface, with
the fuel tank cap facing upwards.
DANGER!
WARNING!
– Clean the fuel tank cap and the surrounding area
to avoid any dirt from entering the tank during re-
filling.
– Carefully open the fuel tank cap to allow the
pressure inside to decrease gradually. Use a
funnel to refill and avoid filling the tank to the
brim.
Always close the fuel tank
cap firmly.
Immediately clean all tra-
ces of fuel which may have dripped on the
machine or the ground and do not start the en-
gine until the petrol fumes have dissipated.

8 PREPARING TO WORK / HOW TO START - USE - STOP THE ENGINE
EN
To prevent distortions, the
drive tube must not be used as a support for the
hand or knee during startup.
5. Pull the starter rope slowly for 10 - 15 cm un-
til you feel some resistance, then tug it hard a
few times until you hear the engine turn over.
To avoid breaking the starter
rope, do not pull the whole length of it or let it slide
along the edge of the cable guide hole. Release the
starter gradually, to avoid letting it fly back uncon-
trollably.
6. Pull the starter rope again until the engine
starts as normal.
Starting the engine with
the choke engaged causes the cutting device
to move, only stopping when the choke is dis-
connected.
7. When the engine is started, disconnect the
starter by turning the lever (2) to «RUN».
8. Briefly activate the throttle (2) to bring the en-
gine down to minimum, with the switch (1)
which will move automatically to the «RUN»
position.
9. Let the engine run idle for at least 1 minute be-
fore using the machine.

STARTING THE ENGINE
The engine must be star-
ted in an area at least 3 metres from where you
refilled the fuel tank.
Before starting the engine:
– Place the machine firmly on the ground.
– Remove the guard from the blade (if used).
– Make sure the blade (if used) is not touching the
ground or any other object.
• Cold starting
A “cold” start of the engine
means starting it after at least 5 minutes from when
it was switched off or after refuelling.
To start the engine (Fig. 5):
1. Press the lock lever (3), activate the throttle (2)
and holding them in this position, move the
switch (1) to the «START» position, then re-
lease the lever (3) and the throttle (2).
2. Operate the starter, turning lever (5) to
«CHOKE».
3. Press the primer device button (6) 3 or 4 times
to prime the carburettor.
4. Hold the machine firmly on the ground with
one hand on the power unit, in order not to lose
control of the machine during startup (Fig. 9).
