While operating
Keep other people away from the danger zone.
Never operate the tiller if animals or people,
particularly children, are nearby. While operating,
objects such as dirt and stones are projected.
The tiller can only be used by one person. The user must
remain on the working area every time the engine is on.
While operating, the machine must never be lifted,
pushed or pulled by the carrying handle, the fenders or
other parts, only by the handlebar grips.
The control and safety devices installed on the machine
must not be removed. Never attach the traction
mechanism levers to the handlebar.
Never approach the rotating parts with your
hands or feet. Always be at a safe distance
according the handlebar.
corresponds to the handlebar's length when correctly
assembled. Do not change the handlebar and never
start the engine with the handlebar folded.
Never hang any objects in the handlebar (eg. clothing).
Only operate the machine on daylight or with a good
artificial light and never use it under rain, storms and
particularly under thunderstorms.
There is a greater risk of accidents on wet floors. Take
particular care to avoid slipping. If possible, never use
the machine in a wet floor.
Use the machine with special care when working near
hillsides, ditches and wells. Keep yourself in a safe
distance from these dangerous spots.
In case of nausea, headaches, vision problems
(eg, reduced vision), hearing problems, dizziness,
reduced ability to concentrate, stop using the tiller
immediately. These symptoms may be caused by high
exhaust gas concentrations.
The combustion engine produces poisonous gases as
soon as it starts working. These gases contain toxic
carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas, as well as
other harmful substances. The combustion engine may
never be operated in confined or poorly ventilated
spaces.
Hold the handlebar firmly, there is a tendency to drop
when the blades start running. Pay particular attention
to the reversing maneuver.
The safety distance
On difficult or stony soil, the user must operate the tiller
at a low speed. Pay particular attention to the control of
the tiller once it may be less stable than on cultivated
soil.
Do not use the tiller with the blades assembled on
asphalt or tile floor.
Starting the engine:
Turn the tiller on according to the instructions given.
Following these instructions reduces the risk of injuries.
When the starter grip returns to its original position,
the hand and arm can be moved quickly towards the
combustion engine. This kickback can cause fractures
and bruises.
Make sure your feet are far enough away from the
blades.
The machine cannot be leaned when it is switched on
and the traction lever cannot be activated.
Operating on leaned soils:
Maintain firm steps and always ensure a stable posture
when working on leaned soils. Avoid using the machine
on too steep slopes.
On leaned soils, always work crosswise as you run along
the soil, never longitudinally, up or down directly by the
slope. The user must never be under the machine. If the
user loses control, may get hit by the blades.
The tiller can roll around during works on slopes.
For safety reasons, the tiller cannot be used on hills
with an angle greater than 10 ° (17%). A slope of 10 °
corresponds to a vertical rise of 17 cm in a horizontal
length of 100 cm.
If the machine is used on hills, the instructions given
about the combustion engine must be followed in order
to ensure sufficient lubrication. Reduce the quantity of
fuel in the tank to prevent leakage.
Operating:
Never put your hands or feet over nor beneath de
rotating parts.
For safety reasons, grab the handlebar grips with both
hands while operating. Never operate with only one
hand.
Adjust the work depth using the depth regulator.
