death. Before performing maintenance, disconnect spark
plug cap from spark plug.
NEVER use inside a home
or garage, EVEN IF doors
and windows are open.
Only use OUTSIDE and far
away from windows, doors, and
vents.
WARNING
Improper maintenance, or failure to correct a problem
before operation, can cause a malfunction in which you
can be seriously hurt or killed. Always follow inspection
and maintenance recommendations and schedules in this
owner's manual.
• Shut off engine before performing any maintenance.
If engine must be run, be sure area is well ventilated.

control devices and systems may be performed by any
