INFORMATION
CONCERNING
SAFETY
AT WORK
1) Read this use manual carefully until
you're familiar with the controls and use
of the motorhoe.
Learn how to stop the machine and to
deactivate the controls quickly.
2) The use of the motorhoe is forbidden
to minors and to those who are not fa-
miliar with the motorhoe.
3) The operator must always be sure
of the safety distance between people
and things from the area in which he is
working.
The operator is directly responsible for
direct and indirect damage, caused by
the motorhoe to third parties.
4) Be careful.
There is a high risk of wounds to hands
and feet when the motorhoe is on.
5) Use the motorhoe only with the han-
dlebar in working position.
This allows keeping a safe distance
between working area and motorhoe.
6) Use only genuine spare blades and
accessories, as this ensures safety and
proper operation of the motorhoe.
7) Do not switch on or use the motorhoe
in a closed environment.
The combustion engine releases dange-
rous exhaust gas emissions.
8) Do not fill up the fuel tank whilst engine
is on. Do not smoke during this operation.
It is best, furthermore, to use a large
funnel in order not to spill the fuel on the
engine and on the bodywork.
9) The area close to the engine's exhaust
can reach temperatures higher than
80°.
ATTENTION: Burning danger
10) Use close-fitting clothes and anti-slip
closed shoes.
11) Check that all fixing elements are
well tightened.
12) Remove stones, wires, glass, big
branches, metal and debris from the area
you want to till.
13) Do not use the motorhoe if safety
devices are not proper.
14) If you bump an object during work,
stop the motorhoe and check for dama-
ges.
15) Pay attention to not be knocked down
during reverse gear operation.
If you loose your balance, immediately
release the handles, the motorstop or
disengagement (depending on models)
will immediately turn on.
As you may be aware, this device is very
important for your safety; do not tamper
with it.
16) The speed of the motorhoe must
always be related to the environment
and to the working conditions of the
motorhoe.
17) Only work during daylight or with
sufficient artificial lighting.
18) Never leave the motorhoe unguar-
ded.
19) Avoid working on steep slopes and in
any case on land that is not sufficiently
safely stable.
20) In order to avoid fire dangers,
avoid:
- Filling the tank overmuch.
- Tilting the motorhoe during mainte-
nance and adjustments if there is fuel
in the tank.
- During use, keep hot parts (muffler,
head) clean from grass heaps.
