OTHER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Maintain the protective covers over the rotating parts.
If rotating parts such as the drive shaft, pulley, belt, etc., are left exposed, they
are potentially hazardous. To prevent injury, equip them with protective covers or
shrouds.
• Be careful of hot parts
The muffl er and other engine parts become very hot while the engine is running or
just after it has stopped. Operate the engine in a safe area and keep children away
from the running engine.
• Do not touch the spark plug or ignition cable when starting and operating the engine.
• Never make adjustments to the machinery while it is connected to the engine,
without fi rst removing the ignition cable from the spark plug. Turning the crankshaft
by hand during adjusting or cleaning might start the engine, and cause serious injury
to the operator.
NOTE
Operating the engine at a steep incline may cause engine seizure due to improper
lubrication even with a maximum oil level.
• Do not transport the engine with fuel in tank or with fuel shut-off valve open.
• Keep the unit dry (do not store the engine outdoors).
