Before using a new machine

•Read the Operator‘s Manual carefully.

•Check the assembly and adjustment of the cutting equipment. See page 13.

•Start the machine and check the carburetor settings. See page 16-17.

IMPORTANT! A too lean carburetor adjustment significantly increases the risk of an engine breakdown.

Insufficient care of the air filter will cause deposits on the spark plug resulting in starting difficulties.

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any nonroad engine repair establishment or individual.

!WARNING!

Under no circumstances may the design of the machine be modified without the permis- sion of the manufacturer. Always use genuine accessories. Non-authorised modifications and/or accessories can result in serious personal injury or the death of the operator or others.

Your warranty does not cover damage or liability caused by the use of non-authorized accessories or replacement parts.
