BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS

IS YOUR ENGINE READY TO GO?

For your safety, and to maximize the service life of your
equipment, it is very important to take a few moments before you
operate the engine to check its condition. Be sure to take care of
any problem you find, or have your servicing dealer correct it,
before you operate the engine.
Improperly maintaining this engine, or failure to
correct a problem before operation, can cause a
malfunction in which you can be seriously hurt or
killed.
Always perform a pre-operation inspection before
each operation, and correct any problem.
Before beginning your pre-operation checks, be sure the engine is
level and the engine switch is in the OFF position.
Always check the following items before you start the engine:
Check the General Condition of the Engine
1.
Look around and underneath the engine for signs of oil or
gasoline leaks.
2.
Remove any excessive dirt or debris, especially around the
muffler and recoil starter.
3.
Look for signs of damage.
4.
Check that all shields and covers are in place, and all nuts, bolts,
and screws are tightened.
Check the Engine

the engine before the oil level falls below safe limits. However,
to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always
check the engine oil level before startup.

OPERATION

SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Before operating the engine for the first time, please review the
SAFETY INFORMATION section on page and the BEFORE
OPERATION CHECKS on page .
For your safety, do not operate the engine in an enclosed area
such as a garage. Your engine's exhaust contains poisonous
carbon monoxide gas that can collect rapidly in an enclosed area
and cause illness or death.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas
that can build up to dangerous levels in closed areas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness or death.
Never run the engine in a closed, or even partly
closed area where people may be present.
Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered by
this engine for any safety precautions that should be observed
with engine startup, shutdown or operation.
Do not operate the engine on slopes greater than 20°.
