CHAPTER 9 – SAFETY REGULATIONS
Although the machine conforms to all the safety regulations, there is always a certain degree of risk involved with any type of machine,
either due to incorrect use (see paragraph relative to forbidden use) or inevitable risks due to the nature of the machine. These risks are
defined as "residual risks".
The chapter shows a list of foreseeable residual risks and how to minimize the deriving dangers.
RESIDUAL RISKS:
Risk of lesions to limbs and eyes through using the machine without the supplied safety protections correctly assembled and not
damaged.
Risk of lesions to limbs through contact with the side brush or with the central brush in rotation. The brushes may only be touched
when the machine is off and with the added protection of heavy duty gloves to avoid lesions caused by any sharp material remained
in the brushes.
Risk of inhaling harmful substances or causing lesions to hands and eyes while emptying the waste container if this operation is made
without suitable protections such as heavy duty gloves, glasses and a protective breathing mask.
Risk of loss of control of the machine if used on gradients of more than 2% or if left parked on slopes, as the machine is not fitted
with a braking device.
RESIDUAL RISKS:
Concerning risks involving the engine, the chapter "Safety rules and regulations" of the hand-book enclosed with the documentation of the
machine, must be studied carefully.
Risks of explosion or fire while filling the engine with fuel if carried out while the engine is running or not
completely cooled. Make sure that, while filling the engine, there are no naked flames or sparks caused by grinders, welders or other.
Risk of severe burns if any type of operation is carried out on the engine while it is running or not completely cooled.
CHAPTER 10 – CHECKS TO BE MADE BEFORE STARTUP
Carefully read use and maintenance handbook for the motor, enclosed with the documentation supplied with the machine.
1. Check the oil level of the engine and top up if necessary (wear nitril safety gloves throughout the operation). For type of oil and
amount, see indications in the handbook for the engine.
2. Fill up with petrol (with the engine off and cold, and using the type of fuel recommended by the manufacturer of the engine - see
engine user handbook). The container used for storing the petrol must be suitable for this purpose and perfectly clean so as to
avoid damage to the petrol filter caused by impurities. Use a petrol container of a capacity in proportion to the amount consumed,
so that in a period of 2 - 3 months the fuel is all used in this way it will always be fresh.
