Take care when handling fuel. Fuel is highly flammable and its vapours explosive :
- Only use an approved container
- Take care not to remove fuel caps or top up the tank with the engine running.
- Allow the engine to cool before proceeding with fuel-filling operations.
- Do not smoke during this operation.
- Never fill the machine with fuel in an indoor ambient
- It is advisable to use a wide funnel to prevent spillage of fuel on the engine and
on other surfaces of the turf cutter.
- If any fuel is spilled do not attempt to switch on the engine; simply move the
machine away from the area of spillage before switching on.
- After filling up with fuel reposition and screw the fuel tank cap right down.
Do not rest the turf cutter or the fuel container in indoor environments with naked
flames
D) WORKING USE
When working keep everyone at a minimum distance of 10 metres from the machine.
Keep the engine well ventilated and clog-free (materials and other residue) to prevent
demage to the engine and risk of fire. Clean the cooling fan and fins regularly.
Clean the air filter at the same time as well.
Drive smoothly, avoiding brusque starts, braking and turns.
Take care not to touch the silencer when hot.
If a slipping belt causes abnormal noise, smells or overheating, switch off the engine
immediately and check the machine to prevent the outbreak of fire and damage to the
transmission.
The blade is extremely dangerous. Take great care during operation. Do not use feet
or hands to push the machine down into the turf and do not allow anyone to stand
either in front of the machine or in its direction of travel.
Safety goggles and ear protection devices must be worn. Safety gloves must also be
worn during machine operation and maintenance.
Do not switch on and operate the turf cutter in enclosed areas since the engine gives
off carbon monoxide fumes which are colourless, odourless, tasteless and extremely
dangerous.
Supervise the clothing of personnel operating the machine: a long-sleeved jacket with
close-fitting cuffs, long, close-fitting trousers, heavy-duty footwear, and a protective
cap or helmet should be worn. Avoid wearing loose-tailed clothing, unbuttoned jackets
or torn, undone or partially zipped up items to prevent them from being caught up in
the moving parts.
