STARTING BATTERIES
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The engine is equipped with a 12 volt electric starter.
Prompt starting requires sufficient battery capacity
and battery cable size. Neither cranking perfor¬
mance nor starter service life will be satisfactory
with an undersized battery.
Regular, monthly maintenance of batteries may be
required. See Periodic Maintenance and any
instructions available from the equipment or battery
manufacturer. It should be noted that as long as the
equipment is operated regularly, the automatic bat¬
tery recharging system on the engine should be
able to maintain battery charge. See OUT-OF-SER-
VICE PROTECTION under Operation regarding
battery care during storage for prolonged periods.
EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY! Mobile engine-pow¬
ered equipment must never be operated inside
buildings or other enclosed spaces without ample
fresh air ventilation.
Stationary engine-powered equipment installed in¬
side buildings or other enclosed spaces must be
equipped with a leak-free exhaust system that car¬
ries all exhaust gases to the outside, well away from
all windows, doors, vents and other openings into
the building or enclosure.
It is the responsibility of the equipment operator(s)
to check for exhaust leaks on a daily basis and to
have all leaks repaired before continuing to operate
the equipment.
