2.9 ENGINE SAFETY
• Read and understand the operating
manual provided with the engine.
• Use proper tools to service engine.
• Do not run engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust
gases contain carbon monoxide, an odorless and
deadly poison.
• Store fuel in approved safety containers.
• Do not store fuel near an open flame.
Appliances such as a stove, furnace, or
water heater use a pilot light which can
create a spark.
• No smoking when filling the fuel tank.
• Do not remove fuel cap while engine is running.
• Do not refuel indoors where area is not well
ventilated. Outdoor refueling is preferred.
• Do not refuel while engine is running. Allow engine
to cool for 5 minutes before proceeding.
• Use fresh fuel. Stale fuel can gum carburetor and
cause leakage.
• Check fuel lines and fittings frequently for cracks or
leaks. Replace if necessary.
• Do not operate engine if fuel has spilled. Move
machine away. Avoid creating any ignition until the
fuel has evaporated.
• Do not run engine above rated speeds. This may
result in damage and injury.
• Do not tamper with the engine speed selected by
the original equipment manufacturer.
• Do not tamper with governor springs, governor
links or other parts which may increase the

• Do not strike flywheel with a hard object or metal
tool. This may cause it to shatter in operation.
• Keep cylinder fins and governor parts free of grass
and other debris which can affect engine speed.
• Do not operate engine with grass, leaves, dirt or
other combustible materials in muffler area.

Resources Code). Other states may have similar
laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands.
