4. If fuel is spilled when refueling, be sure to wipe off the fuel attached to the body before starting the engine.
5. After refueling, seal the container, and then start the engine at a place more than 3 meters away from the fuel container.
4. Matters needing attention before work
1. Before starting the operation, it is necessary to understand the conditions of the site (terrain, nature of hedges, location of obstacles, surrounding danger, etc.), and remove obstacles that can be moved.
2. Take the operator as the center and within a radius of 15 meters is a dangerous area. To prevent others from entering this area, ropes or wooden signs must be used to warn the area. In addition, when several people are working at the same time, they should greet each other from time to time and keep a safe distance.
3. Before starting work, check all parts of the machine body carefully, and start work after confirming that there are no loose screws, oil leakage, damage or deformation, etc. In particular, the blades and the connecting parts of the blades should be carefully checked.
4. Make sure that the blade is not chipped, cracked, or bent before use. Never use an abnormal blade.
5. Please use a sharpened blade.
6. When grinding the blade, in order to prevent the blade from chipping, be sure to file the root of the tooth into an arc.
7. After tightening the screw on the blade, first turn the blade by hand to check whether there is up and down swing or abnormal noise. If it swings up and down, it may cause abnormal vibration or loosening of the fixed part of the blade.
