• 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 evapo-
rated 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, con-
tact a doctor immediately.
• Be careful when servicing the battery. Explo-
sive 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 fas-
tening bolts for the blade attachments, are
properly tightened and that the equipment is
in good condition.
• Do not modify safety equipment. Check regu-
larly to be sure it works properly. The machine
must not be driven with defective or un-
mounted protective plates, protective cowl-
ings, safety switches, or other protective de-
vices.
• Do not change the settings of governors and
avoid running the engine with overly high en-
gine speed. If you run the engine too fast, you
risk damaging the machine components.
