• Allow the engine to cool before refueling. Do
not smoke. Do not fill fuel in the vicinity of
sparks or open flames.
• 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 of leaking fuel or fuel
vapor leading to damages.
• 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 fuel on the
machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it
has evaporated before starting the engine. If
you have spilled fuel on your clothing,
change your clothing.
• Allow the machine to cool before taking any
actions in the engine compartment.
• Be very careful when handling battery acid.
Acid on skin can cause serious corrosive
burns. If you spill battery acid on your skin,
rinse immediately with water.
• 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 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.
