Maintenance
• Never make adjustments with the engine running.
• Disengage the drive units, shut off the engine and
wait until all moving parts come to a complete
stop before making adjustments, performing
maintenance or cleaning the machine.
• Disconnect the spark plug cable before beginning
repair work.
• Keep all components in serviceable condition and
make sure all nuts, bolts and other hardware are
tight. Replace worn or damaged decals.
• Be careful when checking work tools. Use gloves
when performing maintenance work.
• Never allow persons not trained in the use of the
machine to perform service on it.
• Always park the machine on even ground before
performing maintenance or making adjustments.
• Do not disassemble the engine. This can
invalidate the engine warranty. Contact the dealer
for questions regarding service or guarantee
matters. Follow all maintenance instructions.
• Do not change the setting of governors and avoid
running the engine with overly high RPM. If the
engine is run too fast, damage to the machine
components can occur.
• Do not modify safety equipment. Check regularly
to be sure it works properly. The machine must
not be run with defective or disassembled safety
equipment.
• The muffler is designed to maintain sound levels
at an approved level and keep direct exhaust
away from the user. Exhaust gases from the
engine are extremely hot and may contain sparks
that can cause fires or burn the user.
• Never use a machine with a defective muffler.
• Reduce the risk of fire by removing grass, leaves
and other debris that may have caught in the
machine.
