For safety reasons, any modification to the

accessories approved by VIKING is
forbidden and results in voiding of the

from your VIKING specialist dealer.
In particular, any tampering with the
machine which increases the power output
or the engine speed is forbidden.
Particular care is required during use in
public green spaces, parks, sports fields,

businesses.
Caution: Danger to health due
to vibrations!
Excessive exposure to
vibrations can result in damage
to the cardiovascular or nervous system,
particularly in persons with cardiovascular
problems. Please consult a physician if
you experience symptoms that may have
been caused by vibrational loads.
Symptoms of this kind principally affect the
fingers, hands or wrists and include
(incomplete list):
– numbness,
– pain,
– muscular weakness,
– skin discolouration,
– unpleasant tingling sensation.
When using the tiller, plan for work breaks
and avoid using the machine for
excessively long periods, as this may be
damaging to health due to vibration.
4.2 Refilling the tank – handling petrol
Petrol must only be stored in appropriate,
tested containers (canisters). Always
screw on the fuel tank and canister caps
properly and tightly. Defective caps must
be replaced for safety reasons.
Never use beverage bottles or similar for
disposal or storage of fuels and lubricants.
Persons, particularly children, could be
tempted to drink out of them.
Keep petrol away from sparks,
naked flames, pilot lights, heat
sources, and other ignition
sources. Do not smoke!
Refill the tank out-of-doors and do not
smoke during refilling.
Before refilling the tank, stop the engine
and allow it to cool.
Refilling with petrol must be performed
before the engine is started. When the
engine is running or is hot, the tank cap
must not be removed and the tank must
not be refilled with petrol.
Do not overfill the fuel tank!
To give the fuel room to expand,
never fill the fuel tank past the
lower edge of the filler neck.
Observe the additional
instructions in the engine
instruction manual.
If petrol is spilled, the engine
must only be started after the petrol-
contaminated area has been cleaned. All
attempts at starting must be avoided until
the petrol fumes have dispersed (wipe
dry).
Any spilt fuel must be wiped up
immediately.
Clothing must be changed if it comes into
contact with petrol.
Never store the machine with petrol in the
tank inside a building. The resulting petrol
fumes could come into contact with naked
flames or sparks and could be ignited.
If it is necessary to drain the tank, this must
be done out of doors.
4.3 Clothing and equipment
Always wear sturdy footwear
with high-grip soles when
working. Never work barefoot
or, for example, in sandals.
Also always wear sturdy gloves
and tie up and secure long hair
(headscarf, cap, etc.) when
performing maintenance and
cleaning work or when transporting the
machine.
Wear suitable, close-fitting
clothing when working with the
machine, e.g. overalls, but not
work coats. Do not wear
scarves, ties, jewellery, clothing with
dangling straps or cords or other
protruding articles of clothing when
working with the machine.
Hair, clothing or parts of clothing could
become caught or entangled in the rotating
parts. This can result in serious injury.
4.4 Transporting the machine
Always wear gloves in order to prevent
injuries due to sharp-edged and hot
components.
Danger to life!
Petrol is poisonous and extremely
inflammable.
