Engine
Safe
Operation
Practices
Gasoline and its vapors are
extremely flammable and
explosive. Fire or explosion can
cause severe burns or death. If
gasoline is spilled on yourself
or your clothes, wash your skin
and change clothes immediately.
When adding fuel, turn engine OFF and let engine
cool at least 2 minutes before removing gas cap.
Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well ventilated area.
Use only an approved gasoline container.
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or
trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place contain-
ers on the ground away from your vehicle before
filling.
If possible, remove gas-powered equipment from the
truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is
not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer
with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to approximately
2 cm below lowest portion of neck to allow for fuel
expansion.
Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
Never fuel equipment indoors because flammable
vapors will accumulate in the area.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition.
Check fuel line, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for
cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
When starting engine, make sure spark plug, muffler,
fuel cap and air cleaner are in place.
Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting
engine.
When operating equipment, do not tip engine or
equipment at angle which causes gasoline to spill.
Do not choke carburetor to stop engine.
When transporting equipment, transport with fuel tank
EMPTY.
When storing gasoline or equipment with fuel in tank,
store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or
other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition
source because they can ignite gasoline vapors.
Starting engine creates spark-
ing. Sparking can ignite nearby
flammable gases. Explosion and
fire could result.
If there is a natural or LP gas leakage in area, do not
start engine.
Do not use pressurized starting fluids because vapors
are flammable.
Engines give off carbon mon-
oxide, an odorless, colorless,
poisonous gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause nausea,
fainting, or death.
Start and run engine outdoors.
Do not start or run engine in enclosed area, even if
doors or windows are open.
Unintentional sparking can result
in fire or electric shock. Unin-
tentional start-up can result in
entanglement, traumatic amputa-
tion, or laceration.
Before peforming adjustments or repairs, disconnect
spark plug wire and keep it away from spark plug.
When testing for spark, use approved spark plug
tester.
Do not check for spark with spark plug removed.
WARNING: Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire or
explosion can cause severe burns or death. If gasoline is spilled on yourself or your
clothes, wash your skin and change clothes immediately.

Running engine produces heat.
Engine parts, especially muffler,
become extremely hot. Severe
thermal burns can occur on
contact. Combustible debris,
such as leaves, grass, brush, etc.,
can catch fire.
Allow muffler, engine cylinder, and fins to cool before
touching.
Keep children away from hot or running engines. They
can suffer burns from a hot muffler.
Remove accumulated combustibles from muffler and
cylinder area.
Rotating engine parts can
contact or entangle hands, feet,
hair, clothing, or accessories.
Traumatic amputation or severe
laceration can result.
Operate equipment with guards in place.
Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.
Tie up long hair and remove jewelry.
Do not wear loose-fitting clothing, dangling draw
-
strings or items that could become caught.
Rapid retraction of starter cord
(kickback) will pull hand and
arm toward engine faster than
you can let go. Broken bones,
fractures, bruises or sprains
could result.
When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resis-
tance is felt, then pull rapidly.
Remove all external equipment/engine loads before
starting engine.
Direct coupled equipment components such as, but
not limited to blades, impellers, pulleys, sprockets,
etc., must be securely attached.

Spark Plug Service
WARNING: DO NOT check for spark
with spark plug removed. DO NOT
crank engine with spark plug removed.
WARNING: If the engine has been run-
ning, the muffler will be very hot. Be
careful not to touch the muffler.
To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must
be properly gapped and free of deposits.
Remove the spark plug boot and use a spark plug
wrench to remove the plug, Figure 3-2.
Visually inspect the spark plug. Discard the spark
plug if there is apparent wear, or if the insulator is
cracked or chipped. Clean the spark plug with a wire
brush if it is to be reused.
Measure the plug gap with a feeler gauge. Correct
as necessary by bending side electrode, Figure 3-3.
The gap should be set to 0.02-0.03 inches (0.60-
0.80 mm).
Check that the spark plug washer is in good condi-
tion and thread the spark plug in by hand to prevent
cross-threading.
After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a spark
plug wrench to compress the washer.
NOTE: When installing a new spark plug, tighten
1/2 turn after the spark plug seats to compress the
washer. When reinstalling a used spark plug, tighten
1/8-1/4 turn after the spark plug seats to compress
the washer.
IMPORTANT: The spark plug must be tightened
securely. An loose spark plug can become very hot
and can damage the engine.
Cleaning the Engine
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least
half an hour before cleaning. Periodically remove dirt
build-up from engine.
IMPORTANT: Do not spray engine with water to
clean because water could contaminate fuel. Using
a garden hose or pressure washing equipment can
also force water into the muffler opening. Water that
passes through the muffler can enter the cylinder,
causing damage.

Storage
Engines stored over 30 days need to be drained of fuel to prevent deterioration and gum from forming in fuel system
or on essential carburetor parts. If the gasoline in your engine deteriorates during storage, you may need to have the
carburetor, and other fuel system components, serviced or replaced.
Remove all fuel from tank by running engine until it stops from lack of fuel.
Change oil. See Oil Change section.
Remove spark plug and pour approximately 1 oz. (30 ml) of clean engine oil into the cylinder. Pull the recoil
starter several times to distribute the oil, and reinstall the spark plug.
Clean debris from around engine, and under, around, and behind muffler. Apply a light film of oil on any areas that
are susceptible to rust.
Store in a clean, dry and well ventilated area away from any appliance that operates with a flame or pilot light,
such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Avoid any area with a spark producing electric motor, or where
power tools are operated.
If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity.
Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or oil leakage.
Removing From Storage
Check your engine as described in the Pre-Operation Check section in this manual.
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of
gasoline for refueling, make certain it contains only fresh fuel. Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates over time,
causing hard starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine will smoke briefly at startup. This is
normal.

This section applies to 1995 and later small off-road engines. The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an
ultimate purchaser.
(a) General Emissions Warranty Coverage
MTD must warrant to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the engine is:
(1) Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board pursuant to its authority in
Chapters 1 and 2,Part 5, Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code; and
(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects to the part as
described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a period of two years.
(b) The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions required by Subsection (c)
must be warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (a)(2). If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it must be
repaired or replaced by MTD according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty must be warranted for
the remaining warranty period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions required by Subsection (c) must be warranted for
the warranty period defined in Subsection (a)(2). A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” will
not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty
period.
(3) Any warranted part that which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions required by Subsection (c)
must be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled
replacement, the part must be repaired or replaced by MTD according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under
warranty must be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty provisions of this article must be performed at no charge to the owner at a
warranty station.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs must be provided at all MTD distribution centers that
are franchised to service the subject engines.
(6) The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided that
such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty station.

(7) The engine manufacturer is liable for damages to other engine components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted
part.
(8) Throughout the engine’s warranty period defined in Subsection (a)(2), MTD will maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such parts.
(9) Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without charge to the
owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of MTD.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or
modified parts shall be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim made in accordance with this article. The engine manufacturer shall not be
liable under this article to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of non-exempted add-on or modified part.
(c) MTD will include a copy of the following emission warranty parts list with each new engine, using those portions of the list applicable to the
engine.
