• If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine must
not be started until the problem has been
resolved.
• Store the machine and fuel in such a way that
there is no risk that leaking fuel or fumes can
cause any damage.
• Check the fuel level before each use and leave
space for the fuel to expand, because the heat
from the engine and the sun may otherwise
cause the fuel to expand and overflow.
• Avoid overfilling. If you spill petrol on the
machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it has
evaporated before starting the engine. If you spill
petrol on your clothing, change your clothing.
• Allow the machine to cool before performing any
actions in the engine compartment.
• Be especially careful when handling battery
acid. Acid on the skin can cause serious
corrosive injuries. In the event of spillage on the
skin wash immediately with water.
• Acid in the eyes can cause blindness, contact a
doctor immediately.
• Take care with battery maintenance. Explosive
gases form in the battery. Never perform
maintenance on the battery while smoking or in
the vicinity of open flames or sparks. This can
cause the battery to explode and cause serious
injuries.
• Make sure all nuts and bolts are tightened
correctly 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 if protective plates, protective
covers, safety switches or other protective
devices are not fitted or are defective.
• Do not change the setting of governors and
avoid running the engine at excessively high
revs. If you run too fast, you risk damaging the
machine components.
• Observe the risk of injury caused by moving or
hot parts if the engine is started with the engine
cover opened or the protective covers removed.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not smoke when carrying out maintenance.
