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 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 curcuit 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.
