CIDENTAL STARTING.
Hardware--Check all hardware on mixer and

engine, fill the gas tank with clean gasoline from a
safety can. Consult the ENGINE MANUAL supplied

quired.

familiarize yourself, and any other personnel who
will be using it, with the location and proper use of
the controls to insure safe and efficient operation.
