Page 11: High Altitude Operation
High Altitude Operation This engine will have proper engine performance and emission control when it is operated at or below an altitude of 5000 feet (1524 meters). This engine requires a high-altitude carburetor kit to ensure proper engine performance and emission control when operated at altitudes above 5000 feet (1524 meters). -
Page 12: Checking The Engine Oil
HOT SURFACES A running engine produces heat. The surfaces of the engine, other related components, and engine exhaust gas get hot enough to cause moderate burns or ignite materials on contact. To avoid burns, do not touch engine surfaces or exhaust gases while operating and allow engine to cool completely before moving, touching, or performing any maintenance. - Page 13 FILL ENGINE OIL BEFORE USE The engine is shipped from the factory without oil. Running the engine without oil will result in severe engine damage and void the warranty. To avoid causing engine damage and voiding the warranty, fill the engine with the recommended oil type. USE CORRECT ENGINE OIL Oil is a major factor in the performance and service life of any engine.

Page 14: Checking Fuel
Checking Fuel REFUELING Gasoline is highly flammable and gasoline vapors are extremely explosive. Fire and explosions can cause severe burns and/or death. Keep gasoline away from flames, sparks, and other ignition sources. Refuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped and cool. - Page 15 GASOLINE STORAGE It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts, such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (also called gasohol, ethanol, or methanol) attract moisture, which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage.
