SAFETY
State and Local Requirements
The engine is NOT equipped with a
Spark Arrester System complying with
the requirements of SAE Recommended
Practice J335 and California Codes 4442
and 4443. All national forest land and
land managed by the states of California,
Maine, Washington, Idaho, Minnesota,
New Jersey and Oregon require internal
combustion engines to be equipped with
a spark arrester screen by law. Other
states and federal agencies are enacting
similar regulations.
Operating this engine in a state or locale
where such regulations apply, could result in
a violation of the law.
Note: When using a power unit for logging
purposes, refer to Code of Federal
Regulations, Parts 1910 and 1928.
WARNING: The ignition system
of your unit produces an
electromagnetic eld of a very low
intensity. This eld may interfere
with some pacemakers. To reduce
the risk of serious or fatal injury,
persons with pacemaker should
consult their physician and the
pacemaker manufacturer before
operating this tool.
WARNING: Mufer surfaces
are very hot during and after
operation of the power unit, keep
all body parts away from the
mufer. Serious burns may occur
if contact is made with the mufer.
WARNING: Exposure to vibrations
through prolonged use of gasoline
powered hand tools could cause
blood vessel or nerve damage
in the ngers, hands, and wrists
of people prone to circulation
disorders or abnormal swellings.
Prolonged use in cold weather
has been linked to blood vessel
damage in otherwise healthy
people. If symptoms occur such as
numbness, pain, loss of strength,
change in skin colour or texture,
or loss of feeling in the ngers,
hands, or wrists, discontinue the
use of this tool and seek medical
attention.
WARNING: The engine exhaust
from this product contains
chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive
harm.
Operate your power unit outdoors
only in a well ventilated area.
WARNING: Under no
circumstances may the design of
the machine be modied. Always
use genuine accessories. Non-
authorized modications and/or
accessories can result in serious
personal injury or the death of
the operator or others. Your
warranty may not cover damage
or liability caused by the use of
non-authorized accessories or
replacement parts.

SAFETY RULES
Basic Safety Precautions
• Read this manual carefully until you
completely understand and can follow all
safety rules, precautions, and operating
instructions before attempting to use the
unit.
• Restrict the use of your power unit to adult
users who understand and can follow
safety rules, precautions, and operating
instructions found in this manual. Minors
should never be allowed to use a power
unit.
• Do not handle or operate a power unit
when you are fatigued, ill, or upset, or if you
have taken alcohol, drugs, or medication.
You must be in good physical condition
and mentally alert. Power unit work is
strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work,
check with your doctor before operating a
power unit. Be more cautious before rest
periods and towards the end of your shift.
• Keep children, bystanders, and animals a
minimum of 50 feet (15 meters) away from
the work area. Do not allow other people
or animals to be near the power unit when
starting or operating the power unit.
• While working with the power unit, always
use safety protective approved clothing.
The use of protective clothing does not
eliminate injury risks, but reduces the injury
effects in case of accident. Consult your
trusted supplier to choose equipment in
compliance with legislation. The clothing
must be proper and not an obstacle. Wear
adherent protective clothing. Protective
jackets and dungarees leggings are
ideal. Do not wear clothes, scarves, ties
or bracelets that may get stuck into twigs.
Tie up and protect long hair (example with
foulards, cap, helmets, etc.). Safety boots
having skid-proof sole and anti-piercing
insert. Wear protective goggles or
face screens. Use protections against
noises: for example, noise reduction
ear guards or earplugs. The use of
protections for the ear requires much
more attention and caution, because the
perception of audible warning signals
(screaming, alarms, etc.) is limited. Always
remove your hearing protection as soon as
the engine stops. Wear gloves that permit
the maximum absorption of vibrations.
• Only allow others to use this power unit
who have read this Operator’s Manual or
received adeguate instructions for the safe
and proper use of this power unit.
• Check the power unit each day to ensure
that each device, whether for safety or
otherwise, is functional.
• Never use a damaged, modied, or
improperly repaired or assembled power
unit. Do not remove, damage or deactivate
any of the safety devices. Always replace
cutting tools or safety devices immediately
if it becomes damaged, broken or is
otherwise removed.
• Carefully plan your operation in advance.
Do not start cutting until you have a clear
work area, secure footing, and a planned
retreat path.
• All power unit service, other than the
operations shown in the present manual,
have to be performed by competent
personnel.
• It is unadvisable to hitch tools or applications
to the P.t.o. that are not specied by the
manufacturer.

Fuel Handling
WARNING: Gasoline is an
extremely ammable fuel. Use
extreme caution when handling
gasoline or fuel mix. Do not
smoke or bring any re or ame
near the fuel or the power unit.
WARNING: Fuel and fuel fumes
can cause serious injury when
inhaled or allowed to come in
contact with the skin. For this
reason observe caution when
handling fuel and make sure there
is adequate ventilation.
WARNING: Beware of carbon
monoxide poisoning.
WARNING! – Mufers tted with
catalytic converters get very hot
during use and remain so for

also applies at idle speed. Contact
can result in burns to the skin.
Remember the risk of re!
• To reduce the risk of re and burn
injury, handle fuel with care. It is highly
ammable.
• Mix, store and transport fuel in a container
approved for gasoline.
• Mix fuel outdoors where there are no

• Select bare ground, stop engine, and allow
to cool before refuelling.
• Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure
and to keep fuel from escaping around the
cap.
SAFETY RULES
• Tighten fuel cap securely after refuelling.
Unit vibration can cause an improperly
tightened fuel cap to loosen or come off
and spill quantities of fuel.
• Wipe spilled fuel from the unit and allow
remaining fuel to evaporate. Move 10
feet (3 m) away from refuelling site before
starting engine.
• Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel under
any circumstances.
• Do not smoke while handling fuel or while
operating the power unit.
• Store fuel in a cool, dry, well ventilated
place.
• Never place the power unit in a combustible
area such as dry leaves, straw, paper, etc.
• Store the unit and fuel in an area where
fuel vapors cannot reach sparks or open
ames from water heaters, electric motors
or switches, furnaces, etc.
