SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
To avoid personal injury:
8
When checking engine or servicing, place the
engine on a wide and level ground. DO NOT
work on anything that is supported ONLY
by lift jacks or a hoist. Always use blocks or
correct stands to support the engine before
servicing.
8
Detach the battery from the engine before
conducting service. Put a “DO NOT
OPERATE!” tag in the starter switch (key) to
avoid accidental starting.
8
To avoid sparks from an accidental short
circuit always disconnect the battery’s
ground cable (-) first and connect it last.
8
Be sure to stop the engine and remove the
key when conducting daily and periodic
maintenance, servicing and cleaning.
8
Check or conduct maintenance after the
engine, coolant, muffler, or muffler cover
have been cooled off completely.
8
Always use the appropriate tools and jig-
fixture in good condition when performing
any service work. Make sure you understand
how to use them before service.
8
Use ONLY correct engine barring techniques
for manually rotating the engine. DO NOT
attempt to rotate the engine by pulling or
prying on the cooling fan and V-belt. This
practice can cause serious personal injury
or premature machine damage to the cooling
fan.
8
Replace fuel pipes and lubricant pipes with
their hose clamps every 2 years or earlier
whether they are damaged or not. They are
made of rubber and are aged gradually.
8
When servicing is performed together by
two or more persons, take care to perform all
work safely.
8
Keep first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy
at all times.
