Think Safety First
Avoid unexpected starting of engine…
Always turn off the engine, remove the ignition key and disconnect the spark plug
wire(s) before cleaning, adjusting, or repair.
Avoid lacerations and amputations…
Stay clear of all moving parts whenever the engine is running. Treat all normally
moving parts as if they were moving whenever the engine is running or has
the potential to start.
Avoid burns…
Do not touch the engine, muffler, or other components, which may be hot during
operation, while the unit is running or shortly after it has been running.
Avoid fires and explosions…
Use extreme care in handling fuel. It is flammable and its vapors are explosive.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources of ignition. Avoid
spilling fuel and never smoke while working with any type of fuel or lubricant.
Wipe up any spilled fuel or oil immediately. Never remove the fuel cap or add
fuel when the engine is running. Always use approved, labeled containers for
storing or transporting fuel and lubricants. Do not add or drain fuel in an enclosed
space. Do not store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame,
spark, or pilot light, such as on a water heater or other appliance.
Avoid asphyxiation…
Do not operate an engine in a confined area without proper ventilation.
Avoid injury from batteries…
