NEVER use parts that appear to be worn, damaged,
improperly sized, or otherwise incompatible with mating
parts. Contact your dealer or Consumer Support for
assistance if parts do not t properly.
NEVER modify parts or use parts from other pieces of
equipment to assemble your unit. Use only parts that
are designed to t your model. Modifying a part to t
may weaken it, and cause premature failure. Parts from
other models may not work properly, and can create
unsafe operating conditions.
Wiring
Position wiring safely to prevent snagging, separation of
connectors, or breakage during operation. Gather excess
wire, and secure with wiring clamp if provided on unit, or
tuck behind the air lter area. Do not place wiring directly
against hot engine components.
Check wiring and connectors for nicks, cuts, exposed
wire, or other damage, and repair or replace as needed. Exposed wire or
connectors can cause shocks, sparks, and risk of re or explosion, resulting in
serious injury.
Check wire terminals for secure connections. Loose connections can cause
erratic engine operation, or prevent Stop switch from stopping engine.
