ENGINE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

If your product comes with a separate engine manual, be

sure to read and follow all safety and warning precautions

outlined there, in addition to any in this manual.

Preventing Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

• Always start and run engine outdoors. Do not start

or run engine in an enclosed area, even if doors or

windows are open.

• Never try to ventilate engine exhaust indoors. Carbon

monoxide can reach dangerous levels very quickly.

• Never run engine outdoors where exhaust fumes may

be pulled into a building.

• Never run engine outdoors in a poorly ventilated area

where the exhaust fumes may be trapped and not

easily taken away. (Examples include: in a large hole

or areas where hills surround your working area.)

• Never run engine in an enclosed or partially enclosed

area. (Examples include: buildings that are enclosed

on one or more sides, under tents, car ports or

basements.)

• Always run the engine with the exhaust and muer

pointed in the direction away from the operator.

• Never point the exhaust muer towards anyone.

People should always be many feet away from the

operation of the engine and its attachments.

• Do not change the engine governor settings or over-

speed the engine.

Gasoline Fires and Handling Fuel Safely

Use extra care in handling gasoline and other fuels. They are

ammable and vapors are explosive.

• When storing extra fuel be sure that it is in an

appropriate container and away from any re hazards.

• Prevent re and explosion caused by static electric

discharge. Use only nonmetal, portable fuel

containers approved by the Underwriter’s Laboratory

(U.L.) or the American Society for Testing & Materials

(ASTM).

• Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel with the engine

running. Stop engine and allow to cool before lling.

• Do not smoke.

• Never drain fuel from engine in an enclosed area.

• Always ll fuel tank outside in a well ventilated area.

Never ll your fuel tank with fuel indoors. (Examples

include: basement, garage, barn, shed, house, porch,

etc.) Never ll tank near appliances with pilot lights,

heaters, or other ignition sources. If the fuel has to be

drained, this should be done outdoors. The drained

fuel should be stored in a container specically

designed for fuel storage or it should be disposed of

carefully.

• Always wipe up excess (spilled) fuel from engine

before starting. Clean up spilled fuel immediately.

If fuel is spilled, do not start the engine but move

product and fuel container from area. Clean up spilled

fuel and allow to evaporate and dry after wiping and

before starting.

• Allow fuel fumes/vapors to escape from the area

before starting engine.

• Test the fuel cap for proper installation before starting

and using engine.

• Always run the engine with fuel cap properly installed

on the engine.

• Never smoke while relling engine fuel tank.

• Do not store engine with fuel in fuel tank indoors. Fuel

and fuel vapors are highly explosive.

Preparation

• Dress appropriately when operating the tiller. Always

wear sturdy footwear. Never wear sandals, sneakers

or open shoes, and never operate the tiller with

bare feet. Do not wear loose clothing that might get

caught in moving parts.

• Carefully inspect the area to be tilled and remove

all foreign objects. Do not till above underground

water lines, gas lines, electric cables, or pipes. Do not

operate the tiller in soil with large rocks and foreign

objects which can damage the equipment.

• Disengage all clutches and leave control lever in the

neutral position before starting the engine.
