Be sure to:
•
Remove the wire from the spark plug when servicing
the engine or equipment to prevent accidental starting.
Disconnect the negative wire from the battery terminal if
equipped.
•
Keep cylinder fins and governor parts free of grass and
other debris which can affect engine speed.
•
Examine muffler periodically to be sure it is functioning
effectively. A worn or leaking muffler should be repaired or
replaced as necessary.
•
Use fresh gasoline. Stale fuel can gum carburetor and
cause leakage.
•
Check fuel lines and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks.
Replace if necessary.
2.12 Winch Safety
This information pertains to the winch accessary, if equipped.
Refer to winch manual included with your machine for further
information.
WARNING!
Synthetic rope that fails under tension can snap
back with great force causing injury or death.
Avoid sudden jerks, quick starts or stops. Start
slowly and smoothly. Replace if kinked, badly
frayed, has knots, cuts, or broken strands.

•
Never stand in line with the path of a rope under tension.
Stand to the side to activate the winch. If a rope breaks
under tension, it can snap back in an unpredictable
direction with great force. The recoil may cause injury or
death to a person in its path.
•
Always keep hands clear of winch rope, hook loop, hook
and fairlead opening during installation, operation, and
when spooling in or out. Never touch winch rope or hook
while under tension or under load.
•
Always be certain the anchor you select can withstand the
load and the strap or chain cannot slip.
•
Never engage or disengage clutch if winch is under load,
winch rope is in tension or drum is moving.
•
Check rope condition before using winch. Rope may break
during operation if knotted, has broken strands, or sharp
kinks. Replace rope if damaged. Do not touch rope during
operation.
•
Do not allow anyone within 20 ft (6 m) of logs when
winching. Logs can roll in unpredictable ways.
•
Wind the rope under load. Rope does not wind in properly
with no load.
•
Check that the winching trail is clear of obstructions so logs
can be winched in easily.
•
Never exceed a winching angle of ±25° from the centerline
of the machine. If unsure of winch angle, reposition
machine or use a snatch block. Whenever possible winch
in line with the machine.
