1.3 Fuelling
Petrol is very light and highly flammable. Keep away from open flames and never spill fuel. Do not
smoke at the operating site or at and near the refuelling site!
• Stop the engine prior to refuelling.
• Let the engine cool down before refuelling - fire risk!
• Open the tank lid slowly to allow any excess pressure in the tank to be reduced without the risk of petrol
spraying out.
• Fuel may contain substances similar to solvents. Prevent products made from mineral oil coming into
contact with skin and eyes. Wear protective gloves during filling with fuel. Frequently change and clean
protective clothing.
• Avoid breathing in fuel vapour.
• The refuelling site should be well ventilated.
• Avoid any soil spillage of fuel or oil (protection of the environment). Use a suitable mat.
• Immediately clean any spilled fuel on the machine. Change contaminated clothing without delay.
• Firmly tighten all tank lids. This will reduce the risk of spillage from lids, which have become loose from
engine vibrations.
• Check for petrol leaks. Do not start the machine or work with the machine if there is a petrol leak. Life
threatening risk from burns!
• Store fuel and oil in approved and correctly labelled containers.
1.4 When transporting the equipment
• Always turn off the engine when transporting the machine.
• Never carry or transport the brushcutter with the engine running.
• Always cover the cutters with blade protectors, when transporting the equipment over longer distances.
• To prevent fuel running out and associated damages, secure the equipment against tipping over during
vehicle transportation. Check the tank for leaks. It is advisable to drain the tank before transportation.
• Drain the tank before despatching the equipment.
1.5 Preparing the equipment for starting
Check the complete machine for operational safety.
• The stop switch should function properly.
• The throttle must have freedom of movement and return to the idle position on its own accord.
• The cutters and contact protection must be tightly secured and in perfect condition.
• Ensure the spark plug cap and the ignition cable are connected firmly. A loose connection may cause a
spark, which can ignite any existing fuel:air mixture - fire hazard!
Should the check reveal any irregularities or recognisable damage (also to the frame), incorrect adjustments or
reduced efficiency of the machine, do not commence work. Take the power tool to a specialised workshop and
have it checked.
1.6 Starting
• Start the machine no less than 3 metres from the refuelling location. Never start the machine in an enclosed
space.
• Ensure that you are standing firmly on the ground when starting. Always start on even ground, with a firm
grip on the power tool.
• Only one person at the time may operate this power tool - no other people should be within a radius of 15
m - even when starting.
• Continue with the starting procedure as described in section 7. "Starting/Stopping the engine".
