English / USA Screw cap !Warning! Unit vibrations can cause an improperly tightened fuel filler cap to loosen or come off and spill quantities of fuel. In order to reduce the risk of fuel spillage and fire, tighten the fuel filler cap by hand as securely as possible. Before Starting !Warning! Always check your KombiEngine for proper condition and operation before starting, particularly the throttle trigger, throttle trigger interlock, stop switch and working tool. The throttle trigger (if applicable) must move freely and always spring back to the idle position. Never attempt to modify the controls or safety devices. !Warning! Never use a power tool that is damaged or not properly maintained. !Warning! Check that the spark plug boot is securely mounted on the spark plug - a loose boot may cause arcing that could ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire. Keep the handles clean and dry at all times; it is particularly important to keep them free of moisture, pitch, oil, grease or resin in order for you to maintain a firm grip and properly control your power tool. Starting Start the engine at least 10 feet (3 meters) from the fueling spot, outdoors only. For specific starting instructions, see the appropriate section of your KombiEngine and KombiTool manuals. Place the power tool on firm ground or other solid surface in an open area. Maintain good balance and secure footing. !Warning! To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control, be absolutely sure that the working tool is clear of you and all other obstructions and objects, including the ground, because when the engine starts at starting-throttle, engine speed will be fast enough for the clutch to engage and move the working tool. !Warning! Your power tool is a one-person machine. Do not allow other persons in the general work area, even when starting. !Warning! To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control, do not attempt to "drop start" your power tool. !Warning! When you pull the starter grip, do not wrap the starter rope around your hand. Do not let the grip snap back, but guide the starter rope to rewind it properly. Failure to follow this procedure may result in injury to your hand or fingers and may damage the starter mechanism.
