of the towing vehicle, and secure with a heavy-duty hitch pin (not supplied).

 

 
2. STARTING THE ENGINE

 

 

NOTE: If you experience problems with your engine that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by 
following the instructions contained within the engine manual, contact your local engine dealer, or 
call the toll-free service number listed in the repair section of the engine manual.  All engine 
service, warranty or otherwise, is required to be performed by a manufacturer-authorized service 
center.  Giant-Vac Mfg., Inc. is neither authorized nor responsible for any type of warranty engine 
service, nor is it equipped to perform any such service.  

 
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE: 

  Be sure to read your engine manual carefully and thoroughly before attempting to 

start the engine.  

 

  Be sure that the unit is 

completely

 assembled, and all safety guards and 

components are in place.  

 

  Be sure to check engine’s 

oil

 and 

gasoline*

.  (See engine manual for recommended 

oil and gasoline specifications.)  

Never

 check the engine while it is running or while 

you are smoking.  Check only when engine is cold.  

 

     *

All machines are shipped without oil or gasoline unless otherwise noted. 

 

 

  Be sure that red fuel valve on engine is set to open position. 

 
 

TO START ENGINE : 

  Set throttle control up to “full” position.  If engine is cold, set choke by pulling out 

choke handle. 

 

  Turn ignition key and hold until engine starts.  (If engine fails to start within a 

reasonable amount of time, discontinue and check engine manual for further 
instructions.)

half, and turn off choke as required.
