• Allow engine to cool at least two minutes before refueling.
• Never over fill fuel tank.
• Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
• If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. Move machine to another area.
Wait 5 minutes before starting the engine.
• Never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, spark or pilot
light (e.g. furnace, water heats, space heater, clothes dryer etc.).
• Allow machine to cool at least 5 minutes before storing.
• 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 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.
OPERATION
• Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts, in the auger impeller housing or chute
assembly. Contact with the rotating parts can amputate hands and feet.
• The auger impeller control lever is a safety device. Never bypass its operation. Doing so
makes the machine unsafe and may cause personal injury.
• The control levers must operate easily in both directions and automatically return to the
disengaged position when released.
• Never operate with a missing or damaged chute assembly. Keep all safety devices in
place and working.
• Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.
• Do not operate machine while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Muffler and engine become hot and can cause a bum. Do not touch. Keep children away.
• Exercise extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel surfaces. Stay alert for
hidden hazards or traffic.
