SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Have qualified personnel do all maintenance and
troubleshooting work.
• Turn the engine off before working inside the machine or
servicing the engine.
• Remove guards only when necessary to perform mainte-
nance and replace them when the maintenance requiring
their removal is complete. If guards are missing from
the machine, obtain replacements from a Lincoln
Distributor. (See Operating Manual Parts List.)
WARNING
Read the Safety Precautions in the front of this manual and
in the Engine Owner's Manual before working on this
machine.
Keep all equipment safety guards, covers, and devices in
position and in good repair. Keep hands, hair, clothing, and
tools away from the gears, fans, and all other moving parts
when starting, operating, or repairing the equipment.

Routine Maintenance
At the end of each day's use, refill the fuel tank to minimize
moisture condensation in the tank. Running out of fuel tends to
draw dirt into the fuel system. Also, check the crankcase oil
level and add oil if indicated.
