English Fuel Filler Cap with Screw Thread Tighten the fuel filler cap as securely as possible after refuelling. This reduces the risk of the cap working loose due to engine vibrations and fuel leaking out. WARNING Never attempt to force the cap open by using a tool. It may damage the cap and allow fuel to leak. WARNING Before use, make sure that the fuel cap has been completely and properly tightened and any spilled fuel wiped away. Check for fuel leakage while refueling and during operation. If a fuel leak is suspected, do not start or run the engine until the leak is fixed and spilled fuel has been wiped away. Before Starting For wheel installation, follow the procedure described in the appropriate sections of your instruction manual. WARNING Check fuel system for leaks, especially the visible parts, e.g., filler cap, hose connections, manual fuel pump (only for power tools equipped with a manual fuel pump). Do not start the engine if there are leaks or damage - risk of fire! Have the machine repaired by a servicing dealer before using it. 8 WARNING Never operate a cut-off machine if it is damaged, improperly adjusted or maintained, or not completely or securely assembled. Check machine that it is ready for proper operation. Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and fuel. WARNING Before operation of your cut-off machine, be sure the controls (e.g. throttle trigger, throttle trigger lockout, stop switch) and the safety devices are working properly, the carburetor idle and maximum speed are correctly adjusted, the wheel is properly mounted, and the wheel guard is in place and securely fastened to your unit. All wheels should be carefully inspected for good condition before mounting. Adjust the wheel guard so that sparks, dust and cut material are deflected away from the operator, and cannot reach flammable surroundings. See section "Operating Instructions" of your instruction manual. WARNING Check that the spark plug boot is securely mounted on the spark plug - a loose boot may cause arcing that could ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire. Proper tensioning of the ribbed V-belt is important. In order to avoid an incorrect setting, the tensioning procedure must be followed as described in your manual. Always make sure the hexagonal collar nuts for the cast arm are tightened securely. Check ribbed belt tension after one hour of operation and correct if necessary. Starting WARNING Your cut-off machine is a one-person tool. Do not allow other persons to be near a running cut-off machine. Start and operate your cut-off machine without assistance. For specific starting instructions, see the appropriate section of your instruction manual. Do not drop start. This method is very dangerous because you may lose control of the cut-off machine.
