2. GENERAL AND SAFETY REGULATIONS
IMPORTANT: Before commencing with any
intervention, carefully read the information
provided in the present manual, in particular
the following safety regulations.
2.1. Qualicationofoperators
All maintenance, disassembly and repairs must
be carried out by expert mechanics who are
familiar with all the accident prevention and safety
regulations after reading through the procedures
in this manual.
2.2. Safety measures
All the engines are built in conformity with the
European safety regulations in force.
To maintain initial safety levels in the long term, the
Service Centre should take proactive measures by
making checks whenever possible.
Every time you are asked to service the engine (or
the machine on which it is installed), you should:
• check:
- that the safety devices function correctly;
- that the casings and protection covers have not
been removed;
- thatthenameplatesorspecicationlabelshave
not been removed or made illegible, (as they
form an integral part of the safety devices).
• Also:
- restore to proper working order any safety
devices which have been manipulated or
removed;
- replace ineffective, damaged or missing guards
and covers;
- replace illegible labels;
- donotcarryoutoperationsormodicationson
the machine or on the engine that could affect
their performance or lead to an improper or
differentusefromtheoneforwhichithasbeen
designed and approved;
- warn the customer that the failure to comply
with the above points automatically voids
the warranty and the responsibility of the
manufacturer.
2.3. Precautions during servicing
As well as following the usual accident prevention
regulations that apply to most repair shops, we
recommend you:
- the site used for disassembly and assembly must
be clean;
- checking and maintenance operations must
becarriedoutwiththeengineswitchedoffand
cold; high temperature operation of the engine
may cause injury and/or burns;

debris, carbon deposits, grease stains and other
impuritieswithcleaningagentsandcompressed
air;
- prepare suitable tools and devices for disassembly
and assembly;
- when dismantling, highlight the most difcult
parts with reference mark, this helps when
reassembling the most complex parts;
- carry out assembly in the opposite order to
disassembly, i.e. assemble in order from the
inside to the outside and from the main part to
the auxiliary part and its components, until the
wholeengineisassembled;
- disconnect the spark plug cap before servicing;
- protect hands with suitable working gloves,
especiallywhenworkingnearthecuttingunit;
