SAFETY RULES
GASOLINE
WARNING: SAFETY WITH GASOLINE
Gasoline is a highly flammable liquid. Gasoline also gives o flammable vapor that can be easily
ignited and cause a fire or explosion. Never overlook the hazards of gasoline. Always follow these
precautions:
A. Never run the engine in an enclosed area or without proper ventilation as the exhaust from
the engine contains carbon monoxide, which is an odorless, tasteless, and a deadly poisonous
gas.
B. Store all fuel and oil in containers specifically designed and approved for this purpose and
keep away from heat and open flame, and out of reach of children.
C. Replace rubber fuel lines and grommets when worn or damaged and after five years of use.
D. Fill the gasoline tank outdoors with the engine o and allow the engine to cool completely. Do
not handle gasoline if you or anyone nearby is smoking, or if you are near anything that could
cause it to ignite or explode. Reinstall the fuel tank cap and fuel container cap securely.
E. If you spill gasoline, to not attempt to start the engine. Move the machine away from the area
of the spill and avoid creating any source of ignition until the gas vapors have dissipated. Wipe
up any spilled fuel to prevent a fire hazard and properly dispose of the waste.
F. Allow the engine to cool completely before storing in any enclosure. Never store a machine
that has gas in the tank, or a fuel container, near an open flame or spark such as a water
heater, space heater, clothes dryer, or furnace.
G. Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine running. Shut down the engine, disconnect
the spark plug wire, keeping it away from the spark plug to prevent accidental starting, wait
five minutes before making adjustments or repairs.
H. Never tamper with the engine’s governor setting. The governor controls the maximum safe
operation speed and protects the engine. Over-speeding the engine is dangerous and will
cause damage to the engine and to other moving parts of the machine. If required, see your
authorized dealer for engine governor adjustments.
I. Keep combustible substances away from the engine when it is hot.
J. Never cover the machine while the muer is still hot.
K. Do not operate the engine with the air cleaner or the carburetor air intake cover removed.
Removal of such parts could create a fire hazard. Do not use flammable solutions to clean the
air filter.
L. The muer and engine become very hot and can cause a severe burn; do not touch.
