• If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and
check for the cause immediately. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
• ALWAYS wear eye protection when operating the machine.
IV. SERVICE
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE
• To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme care in handling gasoline.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.
• Use only an approved gasoline container.
• NEVER remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine running. Allow engine to cool
before refueling.
• NEVER fuel the machine indoors.
• NEVER store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame, spark or
pilot light such as on a water heater or other appliances.
• NEVER fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner.
ALWAYS place containers on the ground away from your vehicle when filling.
• Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the
ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment 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.
• If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately.
• NEVER overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten securely.
GENERAL SERVICE
• NEVER operate machine in a closed area.
• Keep all nuts and bolts tight to ensure the equipment is in safe working condition.
• NEVER remove or tamper with any safety devices. Check their proper operation
regularly. NEVER do anything to interfere with the function of a safety device or to
reduce the protection oered by the safety device.
• Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris buildup. Clean oil or fuel spillage
and remove any fuel-soaked debris. Allow machine to cool before storing.
• If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the machine. Repair, if necessary,
before restarting.
