• Mix, store and transport fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
• Handle fuel outdoors where there are no sparks or flames.
• Select bare ground, stop the engine and allow it to cool before refueling.
• Loosen the fuel cap slowly to release pressure and prevent fuel from escaping around the cap.
• Tighten the fuel cap securely after refueling. Machine vibration can cause an improperly tightened fuel cap to loosen or come off and spill amounts of fuel.
• Wipe up spilled fuel and allow remaining fuel to evaporate. Move 3m away from the refueling place before starting the engine.
• Do not attempt to burn spilled fuel under any circumstances.
• Store fuel in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place.
• Never place the tiller in a flammable area such as dry leaves, straw, paper, etc.
• Store the machine and fuel in an area where fuel vapors cannot reach sparks or open flames from water heaters, electric motors or switches, stoves, etc.
• Never remove the filler cap with the engine running.
• Never use fuel for cleaning operations.
• Be careful not to stain your clothing with fuel. If fuel has been spilled on you or your clothing, change your clothing. Wash any part of your body that has come into contact with the fuel. Use soap and water.
• Do not expose the fuel tank to direct sunlight.
• Keep the fuel tank out of the reach of children.

Warning:
Always wear protective gloves when performing maintenance. Do not smoke while filling fuel (Fig. 17)
The product works with a 4-stroke engine. Store unleaded gasoline in a clean container approved for gasoline (Fig. 18).
recommended fuel: This engine is designed to run on unleaded gasoline intended for automotive use with an octane rating of 89 ([R + M] / OR HIGHER (Fig. 19).
Never use spoiled or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Prevent dirt or water from entering the fuel tank.

4.2. Fill of the deposit
Warning:
Follow the safety instructions for fuel handling. Always turn off the engine before refueling. Never add fuel to a machine while it is running or with a hot engine.
Move at least 3 m away from the refueling place before starting the engine. Remember not to smoke in the work area.

4.3. engine oil tank
engine oil level
Caution:
Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine damage. Be sure to check the engine on a level surface with the engine stopped.

1. Remove the oil filler cap (A, Fig. 25) and check the oil level: It should reach the top of the oil filler neck (B).
2. If the level is low, fill to the top (C, Fig. 26) of the oil filler neck with the recommended oil. Add the engine oil slowly to avoid spillage as the capacity of the engine oil tank is small.

4.4. engine start

Warning:
Never pull the throttle trigger while starting the engine. If you pull the throttle trigger, the motor will speed up and the blades will start to spin. This could cause an accident or injury.
Warning:
To start the machine, you must stop in the area indicated in Fig.33.

• Slowly push the primer barrel 6 to 8 times (A Fig. 34).

• Put the switch (B, Fig. 35) in position «I».

• Pull the choke lever (D, Fig. 36) to the “closed” position.

• Pull the starter rope (Fig. 37) until the first ignition of the engine is heard (no more than five pulls). A machine being turned on for the first time may require additional pulls.
  Never wrap the jumper cable around your hand.

• When the engine starts, gradually move the choke lever

• Warm up the engine until it runs smoothly.

• When pulling the starter rope, do not use the full length of the rope. String, since it isor it may cause the rope to break.
  Do not let go of the starter rope suddenly, hold the handle and slowly rewind the rope.
  Note: Start the engine warm following the starting instructions above, but do not use the close position to restart.
  Warning:
  Weather conditions and altitude can affect carburetion. Don’t let bystanders get lost in the work area while adjusting the carburetor. Keep the motor running at full speed the entire time you are cutting.

4.5. High altitude operation
At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance will increase and fuel consumption will increase. High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate the engine at altitudes higher than 1,500m above sea level, ask your nearest official dealer to make these modifications to the carburetor. Even with adequate carburetor thrust, engine power will decrease by approximately 3.5% for every 300m increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no modification is made to the carburetor.
Caution: Operating the engine at a lower altitude than the carburetor can result in reduced performance, overheating, and serious engine damage caused by an air/fuel mixture that is too lean.
4.6. Engine run-in and intake
The motor reaches maximum power after 5-8 hours of activity. During this breakin period, do not idle the machine  at full speed to  avoid excessive operating stress.
4.7. Flooded engine or easy start
The engine may be flooded with too much fuel if it has not started after 10 pulls. Excess fuel can be removed on flooded engines by following the warning engine starting procedure above. Make sure the ON/STOP switch is in the “I” position. Starting may require pulling the starter rope handle many times, depending on how flooded the unit is. If the engine is flooded:

• Set the on/off switch to STOP.
• Unscrew the cover screw (1, Fig. 39).
• Remove the cover (2).
• Hook a suitable tool into the spark plug boot (3, Fig. 40).
• Remove the spark plug boot.
• Unscrew and dry the spark plug.
• Open the throttle fully.
• Pull the starter rope several times to clear the sawmill.
• Refit the spark plug and connect the spark plug boot, press it down firmly -refit the other parts.
