Do not start the machine in a closed room
or space. Exhaust gases and fuel vapors
contain carbon monoxide and dangerous
chemicals. In the event of a gas concentration caused
by insufficient ventilation, remove anything that
impedes the flow of clean air from the work area to
improve ventilation and do not work in the area again
unless you have properly ventilated the area and It is
clear that the ventilation is sufficient so that this does
not occur again.
concentration.
The area within a radius of 15 meters
around the machine must be considered
a risk zone in which no one must enter
while the machine is running (Safety Zone). When
necessary, use ropes and warning signs to mark the
safety zone.
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating this machine. Distractions can
cause you to lose control. Make sure that
children, people or animals do not enter your work
area
Keep the work area clean and work with good lighting.
Cluttered and dark areas cause accidents.
Inspect the work area and remove all stones, woods,
cables, and foreign objects.
Do not use this machine at night, in fog, or with
reduced visibility that makes it difficult to see the work
area.
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.
Gasoline and oil are extremely flammable
and explosive under certain conditions. Do
not smoke and do not bring flames, sparks
or sources of heat to the machine. Do not smoke
while transporting fuel, when refilling the tank, or
when working.
Do not refuel in places where there are flames, sparks
or intense sources of heat. Always fill the tank in well
ventilated areas and with the engine stopped. Do not
overflow the fuel by trying to overfill the fuel tank. In
the event of a fuel leak be sure to eliminate these
leaks completely before starting, move the machine
away from the area of the spill and avoid any source
of ignition until the vapors have dissipated.
Add fuel before starting the machine.
Never remove the fuel tank cap while the engine is
running or when the machine is hot.
