[. . . ] Harness 4 10 13 Never use a machine with the blade cover still on. It is very important to familiarize yourself with the release mecha- nism. In case of emergency you need to be able to release the machine quickly. The harness is equipped with a fasten-release mechanism. The harness enables the operator to support the machine during use (see "Safety precautions", B7). D. Fuel Mixture Preparation of the mixture Filling the tank 7 14 15 Do not use any other type of fuel than the type recommended in this manual. This machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine and should therefore be fueled with a mixture of unleaded gasoline (with a minimum octane rating = 90) and fully synthetic oil specific for two-speed engines that use unleaded gasoline in the proportions indicated in the table on the cover, fig. Control the specifications of the oil shown on the package; the use of oil lacking the specifications expressly indicated in this manual could cause serious damage to the engine!To obtain the best mixture, pour the oil into an approved container first, followed by the gasoline, and shake the container well (every time you take fuel out of it). The characteristics of the mixture tend to deteriorate in time, so you should only prepare as much mixture as you are going to need (the use of deteriorated fuel can seriously damage the engine). 14 15 Clean the area around the fuel cap before removing it, to prevent any impurities from contaminating the fuel. Unscrew the cap on the fuel tank and fill it with the necessary quality, using a funnel. During use, to prevent problems in starting the engine again, we strongly recommend that you avoid letting the fuel run out in the tank. Fuel storage 14 15 Store the fuel in a cool, well-ventilated place, in an approved fuel storage container. Never store the engine with fuel in the tank in a poorly ventilated place where the fumes produced by the gasoline could propagate and reach a fire, candle, burner or furnace pilot light, water heater, dryer, etc. Delta grip 234 For your safety, fasten the delta handle in front of the label placed on the shaft at a distance of at least 11 cm from the rear grip. If you are using sawtooth blades, the grip distance should be moved by at least 36 cm. The safety pole guard should be mounted using the accessories supplied and in the configuration shown in the figure, in contact with the delta handle. Double Handle Adjust and secure double hand clamp by tightening the screws. Fitting guard on line cutter head and grass cutting blade Fit the safety guard (A) against the gearbox (I) and the upper clamp (F) over the shaft. The string cutting blade housed in the plastic shield will cut the nylon string to optimum length; a string that is too long reduces the rotation speed of the engine and interferes with cutting efficiency, as well as increasing the risk of injury. Assembly/disassembly of line cutter head 2 3 4 10 Apply the nylon string head as shown in the illustration: 1) Protection flange 2) Upper plate 3) Protection (nylon string head B) 4) Nylon string head.

[. . . ] Environmental information This section contains information useful for maintaining the characteristics of eco-compatibility included in the origin design of the machine, and as regards proper use and disposal of oil and fuel. Design In the design stage, care was taken to develop an engine with reduced consumption and low emissions of noise and pollutant exhaust fumes. Use of machine The operations of filling the tank with the fuel mixENGLISH - 8 ture should be carried out in such a way as to avoid spilling fuel and contaminating the soil and environment. Periods of prolonged disuse Always empty the fuel tank with the same precautions used in filling it. [. . . ]
