remove all that impedes the flow of clean air from the
work area to improve ventilation and do not return to
work in the area unless you have correctly ventilated
the area and are certain that ventilation is sufficient as
to not happen again this concentration.
The area within a radius of 15 meters
around the machine should be considered
risk area in which no one must enter while
the machine is running (Security Area). When necessary,
use ropes and warning signs to mark the Security Area.
Maintain children and curious persons away from the
work area while operating this machine. Distractions
can cause a loss of control. Make sure that children,
people or animals do not come into your work area
When the work must be performed simultaneously
by two or more persons, always check the presence
and location of others in order to maintain a sufficient
distance between each person to ensure safety.
Do not use this machine at night, with fog or low
visibility which will not allow you to see the working
area clearly.
Keep the work area clean and work with good lighting.
Only use this machine with daylight or with good
artificial light. Cluttered and dark areas cause
accidents. Inspect and remove any objects that can
cause damage to you or the machine.
Do not use this machine in areas where there is wiring
or underground pipes. Inspect your work area and
remove all stones, wood, wire, and foreign objects that
may be dismissed by the cutting tool.
2.4. SAFETY IN THE USE OF FUELS
IMPORTANT: The fuel used for this machine
is highly flammable. If the fuel or the
machine ignites, smother the fire with a dry
powder fire extinguisher.
Petrol and oil are hazardous; avoid contact of gasoline
or oil with the skin and eyes. Do not inhale or swallow
them. Immediately see your doctor if you ingest fuel
or oil. If they come into contact with fuel or oil clean
with soap and water as soon as possible, if you then
continue to feel irritated skin or eyes immediately
consult a doctor.
Do not refuel fuel in closed or poorly
ventilated places. Fumes from the fuel and
oil contain hazardous chemicals. In the case
of a concentration of gases produced by insufficient
ventilation, remove all that impedes the flow of clean
air from the area in order to improve ventilation. Do not
return to the area unless you have properly ventilated
the area and are certain that ventilation is sufficient so
this concentration does not happen again.
Petrol and oil are extremely flammable and
explosive under certain conditions. Do not
smoke and keep flames, sparks or heat
sources away from the machine.
Do not smoke while transporting fuel, when you fill out
the deposit or when you are working.
Do not refuel fuel in locations where there is the
presence of open flames, sparks or heat sources. Fill
the tank always in well-ventilated areas and with the
motor stopped. In the event of a fuel leak, be sure to
clean these leaks completely before starting, move the
machine away from the spillage area and avoid any
source of ignition until all vapors are gone.
