operation. It will also help reduce air pollution.

WARNING : Improper maintenance, or failure to correct a problem before operation, can
cause a malfunction in which you can be seriously injured or killed. Always follow the
inspection, maintenance recommendations, and schedules in this instruction manual.
● Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs.
●
Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.
● To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when working around
gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts. Keep
cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from all fuel-related parts.
