NOTICE!
• To avoid accelerated engine component wear, always allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes
to decrease the engine temperature before shutting the engine off. Never abruptly shut
down the engine, except in an emergency.
• Never stop the engine suddenly when it is overheated. Run the engine at low idle to allow
the engine to cool gradually before shutting it down.
Failure to follow this notice could damage the machine or cause it to operate improperly.
