 Sources of danger of the working area
Ensure that the walls of a trench are steady and that they won't tumble down by the
vibrations.
Ensure that there are no voltage-carrying cables, gas lines or water pipes which can be
damaged during operation.
Be careful when you work near unprotected holes or excavations. The operation of the
machine happens on your own responsibility and your discretion.
 Burning hazard
Touching the muffler of the exhaust may cause serious burnings when the engine is
hot.
 Fire and explosion hazards
Petrol is flammable easily and at special conditions explosive.
NEVER refill fuel during operation or when the machine is hot.
Do not smoke and keep away flames and sparks during refilling and at places where fuel
is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank and avoid spilling petrol. When fuel has been spilled you
must clean that place before starting the machine.
Ensure that the tank cap is fastened well after refilling.
 Chemical dangers
Never refill or operate a combustion engine in a closed room without enough air
circulation.
Carbon monoxide from the combustion engine can cause the death or can damage your
health by breathing in. That's why you're only allowed to operate the machine in good
ventilated rooms and outdoors.
 Hazard of the sound
Excessive sound may cause hearing damages. For restricting the sound you have to use
hearing protection which is certified to health and safety directives.
 Special protective clothing
Except of the directives in this manual for wearing protective clothing you must wear
special safety clothing and safety shoes when you work with bitumen mixtures.
 Maintenance
Ensure that repairs on the machine will only be done by qualified persons.
Make sure that the ignition is in the position OFF and that the ignition cable is
disconnected with the spark plug before you remove protections, do maintenance work or
adjust something.
Don't accelerate the controlled idle speed of the engine over 3500 rpm. Each increasing
can cause injuries or damages on the machine.
