• Before applying pressure to the system,
make sure all components are tight, and
that lines, hoses and couplings are not
damaged.
• Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the hydraulic lines,
fittings or hoses by using tapes, clamps or cements. The
hydraulic system operates under extremely high pressure.
Such repairs can fail suddenly and create a hazardous and
unsafe condition.
• Wear proper hand and eye protection
when searching for a high-pressure
hydraulic leak. Use a piece of wood
or cardboard as a backstop instead of
hands to isolate and identify a leak.
• If injured by a concentrated high-pressure stream of
hydraulic fluid, seek medical attention immediately. Serious
infection or toxic reaction can develop from hydraulic fluid
piercing the skin surface.
• Relieve pressure in the hydraulic system before working on
it.
2.10 Engine Safety
CAUTION!
Before starting the engine, review the safety,
operating, and maintenance instructions in the
engine manual.

IMPORTANT! In some regions, when an engine is used
on any forest covered, brush covered, or grass covered
unimproved land it is required by law to have a spark
arrestor installed on the muffler. A spark arrestor traps
exhaust particles that are expelled from the engine. It is the
responsibility of the operator to comply with the local laws
and regulations. To purchase a spark arrestor, contact your
local Wallenstein dealer or distributor.
• DO NOT operate engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust gases
contain odorless and deadly carbon monoxide that can
cause death by asphyxiation.
• DO NOT place hands or feet near moving or rotating parts.
• DO NOT store, spill, or use gasoline near an open flame,
or devices such as a stove, furnace, or water heater which
use a pilot light or devices which can create a spark.
• DO NOT refuel indoors where area is not well ventilated.
• DO NOT refuel while engine is running. Allow engine to cool
for five minutes before refueling. Store fuel in approved
safety containers.
• DO NOT remove fuel tank cap while engine is running.
• DO NOT operate engine if gasoline is spilled. Move machine
away from the spill and avoid engine ignition until gasoline
has evaporated.
• DO NOT smoke while filling fuel tank.
• DO NOT choke carburetor to stop engine. Whenever
possible, gradually reduce engine speed before stopping.
• DO NOT run engine above rated speeds. This may result in
injury.
• DO NOT tamper with governor springs, governor links or
other parts which may increase the governed speed.
• DO NOT tamper with the engine as set by the original
equipment manufacturer.
• DO NOT check for spark with spark plug or spark plug wire
removed.
• DO NOT crank engine with spark plug removed. If engine is
flooded, crank until engine starts.
• DO NOT strike flywheel with a hard object or metal tool as
this may cause flywheel to shatter in operation. Use proper
tools to service engine.
• DO NOT operate engine without a muffler. Inspect
periodically and replace, if necessary.
• DO NOT operate engine with an accumulation of grass,
leaves, dirt or other combustible materials in the muffler
area.
• DO NOT touch hot muffler, engine body or cooling fins.
Contact may cause burns.
• DO NOT run engine with air cleaner or air cleaner cover
removed.
Be sure to:
• Remove the wire from the spark plug when servicing
the engine or equipment to prevent accidental starting.
Disconnect the (-) ground wire from the battery terminal.
• Keep engine cooling fins and governor parts free of grass
and other debris that 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. Old fuel can clog carburetor and cause
leakage.
• Check fuel lines and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks.
Replace if necessary.
