2. Refuel outdoors. Refueling in a closed room can
cause explosion of fuel vapor.
3. Avoid contact with fuel or engine oil. Do not
inhale fuel vapor. If fuel or oil spills, wipe it off
of the machine and/or ground immediately. If
fuel spills on your clothes, change it immedi-
ately to prevent it from catching fire.
4. After refueling, carefully tighten the fuel tank
cap and check for fuel leak. Move at least 3 m
(10 feet) away from the fueling source and site
before starting engine.
5. Only transport and store fuel in approved con-
tainers. Keep children away from the stored fuel.
Starting up the power brush / power
sweep
1. Before assembling or adjusting the machine,
switch off the motor and remove the spark
plug cap or the battery cartridge.
2. Before handling the brushes or sweep drums,
wear protective gloves.
3. Wear the personal protective equipments
before starting the motor.
4. Before starting the motor, inspect the machine
for damages, loose screws/nuts or improper
assembly. Check all control levers and switches
for easy action. Clean and dry the handles.
5. Never attempt to start the motor if the machine
is damaged or not fully assembled with proper
guards, plates, or other safety protective
devices. Otherwise serious injury may result.
6. Before starting the motor, carefully check that
the brushes or sweep drums are not touching
your body and other objects. Starting the motor
with the brushes or sweep drums contacting with
foreign object can cause serious accident.
7. Before starting the motor, make sure that there
is no person or animal in the work area.
8. Adjust the shoulder harness and hand grip to
suit the operator's body size.
9. Replace the brushes or sweep drums if they
are cracked, bent, or damaged. Damaged
brushes or sweep drums may shatter during oper-
ation and cause serious injury.
10. Start and operate the machine only outdoors
in a well ventilated area. Operation in a confined
or poorly ventilated area can result in death due to
suffocation or carbon monoxide poisoning.
11. When starting the engine, place the machine
on firm ground and then maintain good bal-
ance and secure footing.
12. When pulling the starter knob of the engine,
hold the power unit firmly against the ground
by your left hand. Never step on the drive shaft
of the power unit.
13. If the brushes or sweep drums rotate at idle,
stop the engine and adjust the idle speed
down. Otherwise unintentional contact with moving
brushes or sweep drums may result in serious injury.
14. Stop the motor immediately if you notice any
trouble.
15. Follow the instruction manual of the power
unit for starting the motor.
Transportation
1. Stop the motor during transportation.
Otherwise unintentional start-up may cause injury.
2. Ensure safe position of the machine during car
transportation to avoid fuel leakage.
3. Lift the entire machine from the ground when
carrying the machine. Dragging the machine causes
fuel tank damage and fuel leakage, resulting in fire.
4. When transporting the equipment, carry it in a
horizontal position by holding the shaft. Keep
the hot muffler away from your body.
Operation
1. During operation, keep bystanders or animals
at least 5 m (17 ft) away from the power brush
/ power sweep. Stop the motor as soon as
someone approaches.
2. In the event of an emergency, switch off the
motor immediately.
3. If you feel any unusual condition (e.g. noise,
vibration) during operation, switch off the
motor. Do not use the machine until the cause
is recognized and solved.
4. With the engine running only at idle, attach the
shoulder harness.
5. During operation, use the shoulder harness.
Keep the machine on your right side firmly.
6. Hold the front handle with the left hand and the
rear grip with the right hand, no matter you are
right-hander or left-hander. Wrap your fingers
and thumbs around the handles.
7. Never attempt to operate the machine with one hand.
Loss of control may result in serious or fatal injury.
To reduce the risk of injuries, keep your hands and
feet away from the brushes or sweep drums.
8. When operating, do not raise the brushes or
sweep drums above waist height.
9. The brushes or sweep drums continue to move
for a short period after releasing the throttle
trigger or switching off the motor. Don't rush
to contact the brushes or sweep drums.
10. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Watch for hidden obsta-
cles such as tree stumps, roots and ditches to
avoid stumbling.
