Fuelling
Taking the following precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:
Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel.
Always shut off the engine before refueling.
Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes before refueling.
When refueling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently.
Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refueling.
Always move the machine away from the refueling area before starting.
Always use a fuel container with an anti-spill valve.
Clean the area around the fuel cap. Contamination in the tank can cause operating
problems.
Ensure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking the container before filling the tank.

The complete clutch cover and shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise
the clutch can come loose and cause personal injury.
Always move the machine away from the refueling area before starting. Place the machine on
a flat surface. Ensure the cutting attachment cannot come into contact with any object.
Make sure no unauthorized persons are in the working area, otherwise there is a risk of
serious personal injury. The safety distance is 15 metres.

off or after refueling.
A
Starting: Ignition: Press down the “I” side of the engine switch. (Fig. 14)
B Primer bulb: Press the primer bulb repeatedly until fuel the bulb is filled with fuel. (Fig.
