Safety Rules
1 - 6
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
The service information provided in this manual is intend-
ed to provide you with the knowledge required to perform
a wide range of service procedures on the listed equip-
ment.
While appropriate safety reminders and safety warnings
have been included here and elsewhere in this manual to
help promote the use of safe service techniques, you
must also observe all appropriate shop safety rules
whenever performing these procedures.
No single manual, including this one, can include every
possible warning or safety instruction necessary to guar-
antee complete safety - you must apply your common
sense and knowledge of shop and power equipment
safety whenever performing service, whenever working
around others who are operating, servicing, or handling
equipment, and whenever you are present in a work
environment where hand or power tools, shop equip-
ment, or outdoor power equipment may be present.
This includes taking the necessary safety precautions to
help ensure a safe workplace, exercising reasonable
care to avoid unsafe acts, and being alert for potential
hazards as you move about the workplace or engage in
various service activities.
If you encounter a service situation involving the use of
an unfamiliar tool, procedure, or part, and rereading the
appropriate section of this manual does not provide the
information you want, contact your Simplicity dealer
before proceeding. Never attempt a repair that you’re
not sure about, since help is usually never more than just
a phone call away.
Practicing safe service procedures not only helps protect
you and those you work around, it also contributes to
providing safe, reliable equipment .
Personal Protective Equipment
• Wear protective safety glasses whenever using hand
or power tools, shop equipment, and whenever work-
ing under power equipment to protect your eyes from
falling debris and small parts.
• Wear safety goggles or full face protection when han-
dling battery electrolyte fluid, or when performing
grinding or sharpening operations that produce
sparks or flying debris. Extensive grinding may
require the use of protective sleeves and an apron.
• Wear work gloves when handling sharp surfaces
such as mower blades, or when working around
sharp edges. Never wear gloves that are loose fitting
or that have tie straps, as these could cause your
hands to get caught by rotating parts, resulting in
serious injury. Chemical-resistant Rubber gloves are
recommended when handling or pouring battery elec-
trolyte.
• Steel-toe safety shoes are highly recommended to
protect feet from falling tools, heavy parts, and other
shop equipment.
Fuel Handling Safety
• Always use extra care when handling gasoline -
gasoline is highly flammable, and gasoline vapors
are explosive as well as toxic if inhaled.
• Never store fuel indoors, or refuel a unit indoors.
Gasoline vapors can easily travel unseen to distant
sources of ignition such as pilot lights or open flames
on water heaters, furnaces, stoves, or other gas
operated appliances, sparks from electric motors or
other electrically-operated tools and equipment, weld-
ing equipment, grinders, or burning smoking materi-
als. Contact with these or any other sources of igni-
tion will cause an explosion and/or fire, serious per-
sonal injury, and damage to property and equipment.
• Never transfer gasoline from one container to another
unless the containers are connected by an approved
grounding strap. Hand or power operated transfer
pumps can generate a static charge of electricity,
causing dangerous sparking and ignition of fuel or
fuel vapors. Always follow the pump manufacturer’s
safety and operating instructions.
• Use only approved containers for fuel, and always
handle the container with extreme care to avoid
spillage or leaking of explosive vapors.
• Never smoke or allow others in the area to smoke
while refilling the fuel tank, or when handling gaso-
line cans. Make sure any smoking materials that had
been in use in the area are fully extinguished before
opening a fuel can or starting refueling .
