Stihl HT 70 Manual De Instrucciones página 8

In order to reduce the risk of burns or
other personal injury from escaping gas
vapor and fumes, remove the fuel cap
on the STIHL product carefully so as to
allow any pressure build-up in the tank
to release slowly. Never remove fuel
filler cap while engine is running.
Select bare ground for fueling and move
at least 10 feet (3 m) from fueling spot
before starting the engine. Wipe off any
spilled fuel before starting your pole
pruner, and check for leakage.
Check for fuel leakage while refueling
and during operation. If fuel or oil
leakage is found, do not start or run the
engine until leak is fixed and spilled fuel
has been wiped away. Take care not to
get fuel on your clothing. If this happens,
change your clothing immediately.

!
Warning!
Unit vibrations can cause
an improperly tightened
fuel cap to loosen or come
off and spill quantities of
fuel.
In order to reduce risk of fuel spillage
and fire, tighten fuel cap by hand with as
much force as possible. Check fuel cap
periodically for tightness.
Starting
!
Warning!
Your pole pruner is a one-person unit.
Do not allow other persons to be near
the running pole pruner. Keep
bystanders at least 15 m (50 ft) away.
Start and operate your pole pruner
without assistance.
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of the Owner's
Manual. Proper starting methods reduce
the risk of injury.
Place the pole pruner on firm ground or
other solid surface in an open area or in
the alternate as shown in the above
picture. Maintain a good balance and
secure footing.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, be sure that the guide bar and
chain are clear of you and all other
obstructions and objects, including the
ground. When the engine is started, the
engine speed with the starting throttle
lock engaged will be fast enough for the
clutch to engage the sprocket and turn
the chain. Never attempt to start the pole
pruner when the guide bar is in a cut or
kerf.
