Electrical - Black Max BM905530 Operator's Manual

HOT SURFACE WARNING
Do not touch the muffler or aluminum cylinder of the engine.
They are very HOT and will cause severe burns. Don't put body
parts or any flammable or combustible materials in the direct
path of the exhaust.
CLEARANCE WARNING
While operating and storing, keep
at least 3 feet of clearance on all
sides of this product, including
overhead. Allow a minimum of 30
minutes of "cool down" time before
storage. Heat created by muffler
and exhaust gases could be hot
enough to cause serious burns and/or
ignite combustible objects.
SPARK ARRESTOR
Operation of this equipment may create
sparks that can start fires around dry
vegetation. A spark arrestor may be
required. The operator should contact
local fire agencies for laws or regulations
relating to fire prevention requirements.
FUEL CAP WARNING
Never remove fuel cap when unit is running. Shut off engine and allow the unit
to cool at least five minutes. Remove cap slowly to release any pressure built
up in the fuel system and to avoid the heat from the muffler igniting fuel vapors.
EXTENSION CORD CABLE SIZE
Refer to the table below to ensure the cable size of the extension cords you use are capable of carrying the required load.
Inadequate size cables can cause a voltage drop, which can burn out the appliance and overheat the cord.
