INSTALLATION

WARNING
If there is a damaged part, do not work with the machine until you have replaced the damaged part. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING
Do not attempt to modify the machine or to install accessories that are not approved for use. Any such modification may result in incorrect use and may create hazards that could cause serious personal injury.

WARNING
Always disconnect the starter battery before working on parts. Failure to follow this instruction may cause the machine to be unintentionally started and cause serious personal injury.
CAUTION
If you attempt to start the engine without first adding oil, you will damage the engine.

WARNING: Fuel vapors are flammable and explosive. To avoid danger of fire or injury to persons or property, handle fuel carefully. Keep away from sources of ignition. Always handle fuel outdoors, never smoke while working with fuel, and always wipe up spilled fuel.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
When you work with the machine, do not get distracted. Remember that inattention can cause serious injury.

WARNING
During operation with a gasoline or electric tool, always wear protective goggles or safety glasses with side shields or a face shield. Failure to follow this instruction may result in eye injury if the safety glasses are not worn.

WARNING
Do not use parts and accessories other than those recommended by the manufacturer for this machine. Use of unapproved parts and accessories may cause serious injury.
MIXING FUEL (Fig. 2)
The machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine, which requires a mixture of gasoline and synthetic oil. Mix unleaded gasoline with synthetic oil for two-stroke engines in a clean container intended for storing gasoline. The engine runs on unleaded automotive gasoline with an octane number of 87 ([R + M] / 2) or higher. Do not use fuel mixtures sold at gas stations that are intended exclusively for mopeds, motorcycles, etc. Use only synthetic oil for two-stroke engines. Do not use automotive oil or any oil for two-stroke engines. Mix the synthetic oil for
two-stroke engines with gasoline in a ratio of 50:1.
Before refueling the tank, always shake the fuel mixture thoroughly. Mix only small quantities of fuel: do not mix more than one month's supply. We also recommend using synthetic oil for two-stroke engines that contains a fuel stabilizer.

REFUELING THE TANK
Place the trimmer on a flat surface with the fuel tank cap facing up. Clean the area around the cap to prevent fuel from getting dirty. Slowly loosen the cap to release pressure and prevent fuel from spilling. Check and inspect the condition of the filter. Carefully pour the fuel mixture into the tank, being careful not to spill. Replace the cap and tighten securely. Wipe up any spilled fuel. Stay at least 9 meters away from the area where you refueled before starting the engine.
Warning: The engine may start when the machine is first started, and then it will stop.

WARNING
Before filling the fuel tank, stop the engine. Never fill the machine if the engine is still running or if it is hot. Wait at least 9 minutes after stopping, before filling the fuel tank. Do not smoke!
