Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation
and fueling. Read and follow the warning instructions in the engine
owner's manual and the safety guidelines below. Failure to follow the
warnings and safety guidelines could result in severe injury or death.
NEVER operate the machine indoors unless exhaust fumes can be
adequately ventilated.
DO NOT fill or drain the fuel tank near an open flame, while smoking,
or while the engine is running.
ALWAYS refill the fuel tank in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT touch or lean against hot exhaust pipes.
ALWAYS replace the fuel tank cap after refueling.
DO NOT remove radiator cap when the engine is hot. The radiator fluid
is hot and under pressure and may cause severe burns!
DO NOT use gasoline or other types of fuels or flammable solvents to
clean parts, especially in enclosed areas. Fumes from fuels and
solvents can become explosive.
ALWAYS keep the area around the muffler free of debris such as
leaves, paper, cartons, etc. A hot muffler could ignite the debris and
start a fire.
