WARNING!
When using petrol-powered equipment, basic safety precautions,
including the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, personal
injury and material damage.
RISK OF EXPLOSION OR FIRE
What can happen:
•
Spilled petrol and its vapours can become ignited from cigarette sparks, electrical arcing,
exhaust gases and hot engine components such as the muffler.
•
Heat will expand fuel in the tank which could result in a fire.
•
Operating the tool in an explosive environment could result in a fire.
•
Muffler exhaust heat can damage painted surfaces, melt any materials sensitive to heat
(such as siding plastic, rubber or vinyl) and damage live plants. Keep hot tool away from
other objects.
•
Improperly stored fuel could lead to accidental ignition. Fuel improperly secured could get
into the hands of children or other unqualified persons.
How to prevent it:
•
Shut off engine and allow it to cool before adding fuel to the tank.
•
Use care when filling the tank to avoid spilling fuel. Move tool away from fuelling area
before starting engine.
•
Keep maximum fuel level 20mm below top of tank to allow for expansion.
•
Operate and refuel in well ventilated areas free from obstructions. Never re-fuel indoors.
•
Store fuel in a approved container (AS/NZS 2906-1999) for petrol. Store in a secure
location away from the work area. Make sure the container is clearly marked "fuel".
