- Be alert and switch off the machine if children
enter the work area.
- Before and during a reversing manoeuvre,
look backward and downward to make sure
there are no small children.

can fall off and injure themselves seriously or
prevent safe manoeuvring of the machine.
- Never allow children to use the machine.
6.1 Preliminary Operations Before
Starting Work
Before starting work, it is necessary to carry out
a series of checks and operations on the
machine to ensure maximum safety and
productivity.
Filling with oil and fuel
CAUTION: The engine manual indicates
what type of oil and fuel to use.
Oil
CAUTION
- THE MACHINE IS SUPPLIED WITHOUT OIL.
Add engine oil before starting the machine.
- Running the engine with insufficient oil can
cause serious engine damage. Be sure to
check the engine on a level surface with the
engine stopped.
- Using non-detergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil
could shorten the engine's service life.
Then unscrew the cap (7, Fig. 2). With the
engine stopped, check its oil level which must
be between the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick.
Fuel
WARNING
- Petrol is a highly flammable fuel; observe
extreme caution during use. Do not smoke
or bring any fire or flame near the fuel or
the machine.
- Petrol and petrol fumes can cause serious
injury when inhaled or allowed to come in
contact with the skin. For this reason
observe caution when handling fuel and
make sure there is adequate ventilation.
- Pay attention to the risk of poisoning from
carbon monoxide, an odourless, toxic and
lethal gas.
- Handle fuel outdoors where there are no
sparks or flames.
- Select bare ground, stop the engine, and
allow to cool before refuelling.
- Never use stale or contaminated petrol or an
oil/petrol mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water
in the fuel tank.
- Avoid dripping petrol onto plastic parts to
prevent them being damaged. In the event of
accidental spillages, rinse immediately with
water. The warranty does not cover for
damage to plastic parts of the bodywork or
the engine caused by petrol.
- Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure
and to keep fuel from escaping around the
cap.
- Clean surface around fuel cap to prevent
contamination.
- Prior to replacing the fuel cap, clean and
inspect the gasket.
- Tighten fuel cap securely after refuelling. Unit
vibration can cause an improperly tightened
fuel cap to loosen or come off and spill
quantities of fuel.
- Wipe spilled fuel from the unit and allow
remaining fuel to evaporate. Move 3 m away
from refuelling site before starting engine.
- Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel under
any circumstances.
- Never place the machine in an area with
combustible materials such as dry leaves,
straw, paper, etc.
- Never take the cap off the tank when the
engine is running.
- Take care not to get fuel on your clothing. If
you have spilled fuel on yourself or your
clothes, change your clothes. Wash any part
of your body that has come in contact with
fuel. Use soap and water.
- Do not expose the fuel tank to direct sunlight.
- Store and transport fuel in a clean container
approved for petrol.
- Store fuel in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place.
- Store the unit and fuel in an area where fuel
vapours cannot reach sparks or open flames
