Maintenance And Storage; Decals - Troy-Bilt 5210R Owner's/Operator's Manual

SAFETY
27. Do not use the snowthrower near drop-ofts, ditches,
or embankments. If the snowthrower's wheel
should go over the edge, or if the edge would cave
in, the snowthrower could suddenly overturn.
28. Do not wear loose clothing such as scarves that
could get caught in the rotating parts of the
snowthrower.
29. Exercise caution to avoid slipping or falling,
especially when operating in (R) Reverse.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. Never perform any maintenance while the
engine is running or when the spark plug wire is
connected to the spark plug, except when specif-
ically instructed to do so in this Manual.
2. Check shear bolts and other fasteners at fre-
quent intervals for proper tightness to be sure
the snowthrower is in safe working condition.
3. Never store the snowthrower with gas in its gas
tank inside a building where ignition sources
(such as hot water heaters, space heaters,
clothes dryers, etc.) are present. Allow the
engine to cool before storing the snowthrower in
any enclosure.
4. Refer to "Storage" in this Manual and to the
Engine Owner's Manual for important details if
the snowthrower is to be stored for an extended
period.
5. Maintain or replace safety and instructional
labels as necessary. (See the Snowthrower Parts
Catalog for location of labels.)
6
6. Run the snowthrower a few minutes after you've
finished throwing snow to prevent freeze-up of
the auger. Brush off snow build-up on the
snowthrower.
7. Remember, the end of the winter is a good time
to inspect your snowthrower and order any
replacement parts.
8. Use only genuine Troy-Bilt replacement parts.
Replacement parts manufactured by others
could present safety hazards even though they
may fit on this snowthrower.
9. Store gasoline in a cool, well-ventilated area,
safely away from any sparks or flame producing
equipment. Store gasoline in an approved con-
tainer, safely out of the reach of children.
10. Touch up scratches, unpainted or rusted areas
with paint.
DECALS
For your personal safety and the safety of others, a
number of safety message decals have been affixed
to your snowthrower. Keep them clean and legible at
all times. Contact your local servicing dealer or the
factory for replacements if any of these decals is
missing or becomes illegible.
Refer to the separate Snowthrower Parts Catalog
for decal locations, part numbers, and ordering
instructions.
