SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Acid in the eyes can cause blindness,
contact a doctor immediately.
• Be careful when servicing the battery.
Explosive gases form in the battery. Never
perform maintenance on the battery when
smoking or near open flames or sparks.
The battery can explode and cause serious
injury/damage.
• Ensure that nuts and bolts, especially the
fastening bolts for the blade attachments,
are properly tightened, torqued and that
the equipment is in good condition.
• Do not modify safety equipment. Check
regularly to be sure it works properly. The
machine must not be driven with
defective or unmounted protective plates,
protective cowlings, safety switches, or
other protective devices.
• Do not change the settings of governors
and avoid running the engine with overly
high engine speeds. If you run the
engine too fast, you risk damaging the
machine components.
• Sparking can occur when working with
the battery and the heavy cables of the
starter circuit. This can cause battery
explosion, fire or eye injury. Sparking in
this circuit can not occur after the chassis
cable (normally negative, black) is
removed from the battery.
• Use protective goggles.
• Ensure that the fuel filler cap is mounted
tightly and no flammable substances is
stored in an open vessel.
• Never work with the starter circuit if there
is spilled fuel.
• Disconnect the chassis cable from the
battery first and reconnect it last.
• Do not make a bridge short circuit across
the starter relay to run the starter.
• Never use the machine indoors or in
spaces lacking proper ventilation. The
exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide,
an odorless, poisonous, and lethal gas.
