Check the snowblower on level ground with the engine stopped.
To prevent accidental start-up, remove the engine switch key, and
disconnect the spark plug cap before performing the pre-operation
check.
Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck).
After refueling, make sure the fuel tank cap is closed properly and
securely.
