Special safety instructions for the operation

 The machine is designed to be operated by one person. Always operate the machine from
behind. Never stand next to or in front of the machine when the engine is running.
 Excessive noise can cause hearing damage and temporary or permanent hearing loss.
Wear hearing protection certified to health and safety regulations to limit noise exposure.
 Do not increase the regulated idle speed by your own. This could result in damage to the
machine or personal injury.

Safety instructions for machines with combustion engine

 Do not touch the engine and/or muffler during operation or immediately after switching
off! These areas become hot during operation and can cause burns.
 Do not touch the spark plug connector when the engine is running (electric shock!).
 Do not operate the unit in closed areas or in poorly ventilated rooms unless there is
adequate ventilation through exhaust fans or hoses. (Risk of suffocation from carbon
monoxide!)
 Do not smoke while the machine is in operation.
 Do not smoke when refuelling the machine.
 Refuel the machine only in a well ventilated area.
 Do not refuel the machine when the engine is running or the machine is still hot.
 Do not refuel the machine near naked flames.
 Do not spill fuel when refuelling.
 Do not crank a gas flooded engine as long as the spark plug is removed- fuel in the
cylinder sprays out of the spark plug opening.
 Do not carry out an ignition spark test on engines if the engine is flooded or gas can be
smelled. A stray spark could ignite the vapours.
 Do not use fuel to clean machine parts, especially indoors. Vapours from fuels may
explode.
 Always keep the area around the muffler free of foreign substances such as leaves, paper,
cardboard, etc. A hot muffler could ignite these substances and cause a fire.
 Close the filler cap after refuelling.
 Check the fuel line and tank regularly for leaks and cracks. Do not operate the machine if
leaks in the fuel system are known.
 Store fuel only in designated and approved containers.
Despite intended use, certain residual risks remain. Due to the design and construction of the
machine, hazardous situations may occur which are identified as follows in these operating

A safety instruction designed in this way indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
