WARNING
Safe operation of the snowthrower requires the proper care
and maintenance of the engine.
• Disengage all clutches and shift into neutral before
starting the engine.
• Let the engine adjust to outdoor temperatures before
starting to clear snow.
• Use a grounded three-wire plug for all snowthrowers
equipped with electric drive motors or electric starting
motors.
WARNING
Starting the engine creates sparking.
Sparking can ignite nearby flammable gases.
Explosion and fire could result.
• If there is natural gas or LP gas leakage in the area, do
not start the engine.
• Do not use pressurize starting fluids because their
vapors are flammable.
WARNING
Running the engine produces heat. Engine parts, espe-
cially the muffler, become extremely hot.
Failure to observe these safety instructions could result in
severe thermal burns on contact.
• Never touch a hot engine or muffler. Allow muffler,
engine cylinder, and fins to cool before touching.
• Remove debris from muffler area and cylinder area.
• Install and maintain in working order a spark arrester
before using equipment on forest-covered, grass-cov-
ered, or brush-covered unimproved land.
• U.S.A. Models: It is a violation of California Public
Resource Code Section 4442 to use or operate the
engine on any forest-covered, brush-covered, or
grass-covered land unless the exhaust system is
equipped with a spark arrester, as defined in Section
4442, maintained in effective working order. Other
states or federal jurisdictions may have similar laws.
Contact the original equipment manufacturer, retailer,
or dealer to obtain a spark arrester designed for the
exhaust system installed on this engine.
WARNING
This snowthrower must be properly maintained to ensure
safe operation and performance. Failure to observe the
safety instructions in this manual could result in death or
serious injury.
• When performing any maintenance or repairs on the
snowthrower, shut OFF the engine, disconnect spark
plug wire, and keep the wire away from the plug to pre-
vent someone from accidently starting the engine.
• Check shear bolts and other hardware at frequent
intervals for proper tightness.
• Keep nuts and bolts tight and keep snowthrower in
good condition.
• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper
operation regularly and make necessary repairs if they
are not functioning properly.
• Components are subject to wear, damage, and dete-
rioration. Frequently check components and replace
with recommended parts, when necessary.
• Check control operation frequently. Adjust and service
as required.
• Use only factory authorized replacement parts, or like,
parts when making repairs.
• Always comply with factory specifications on all set-
tings and adjustments.
• Use only factory authorized, or like, attachments and
accessories such as wheel weights, counterweights,
or cabs.
• Never attempt to make any adjustments while the
engine is running (except when specifically recom-
mended by the factory).
