Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.
Failure to observe this warning can result in property
damage, severe burns and/or death.
• Ensure spark plug is in place before attempting to start engine.
• Ensure muffler is secured to engine before starting.
• Ensure fuel cap is on fuel tank and tightened securely.
• Ensure air cleaner is clean and properly attached to engine.
A dirty air cleaner element changes the air to fuel ratio and
promotes incomplete combustion of fuel increasing the output of
carbon monoxide. Always make sure air cleaner element is clean
before every operation of the engine.
•
DO NOT
crank engine with spark plug wire removed. The resulting spark
could ignite spilled fuel.

extremely hot and can cause severe burns. Exhaust gases can
ignite combustible items such as clothing or structures in close
proximity. Gases leaking from worn muffler can heat up and damage fuel
tank resulting in fire or explosion.
