Never run the cutter without this guard!
All protective installations and guards supplied with the
machine must be used during operation.
Never operate the engine with faulty exhaust muffler.
Shut off the engine during transport.
During transport over long distances the tool protection
included with the equipment must always be used.
Ensure safe position of the Brush Cutter during car
transportation to avoid fuel leakage.
When transporting the Brush Cutter, ensure that the fuel
tank is completely empty.
When unloading the Brush Cutter from the truck, never
drop the Engine to the ground or this may severely
damage the fuel tank.
Except in case of emergency, never drop or cast the
Brush Cutter to the ground or this may severely damage
the Brush Cutter.
Remember to lift the entire equipment from the ground
when moving the equipment. Dragging the fuel tank is
highly dangerous and will cause damage and leakage of
fuel, possibly causing fire.
Refuelling
Shut off the engine during refuelling, keep away from
open flames and do not smoke.
Avoid skin contact with mineral oil products. Do not
inhale fuel vapor. Always wear protective gloves during
refuelling. Change and clean protective clothing at
regular intervals.
Take care not to spill either fuel or oil in order to prevent
soil contamination (environmental protection). Clean the
Brush Cutter immediately after fuel has been spilt.
Avoid any fuel contact with your clothing. Change your
clothing instantly if fuel has been spilt on it (to prevent
clothing catching fire).
Inspect the fuel cap at regular intervals making sure that it
can be securely fastened and does not leak.
Carefully tighten the fuel tank cap. Change location to
start the engine (at least 3 meters away from the place of
refuelling).
Never refuel in closed rooms. Fuel vapors accumulate
at ground lever (risk of explosions).
Only transport and store fuel in approved containers.
Make sure the fuel stored is not accessible to children.
