-Replace fuel cap securely and wipe up spilled fuel.

-Never store fuel or snow thrower with fuel in the tank inside of a building where fumes may reach an open fl ame or spark.

-When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

-Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tankopening at all times, until refueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

-If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing im- mediately.

For all units with electric starting motors use electric starting extension cords certifi ed CSA/UL. Use only with a receptacle that has been installed in accordance with local inspection authorities.

If snow thrower must be operated over gravel surface, use extra caution and be sure skid plates are adjusted to lowest (highest scraper clearance) position.

Never attempt to make any adjustments while the engine (motor) is running (except when specifi cally recommended by manufacturer).

Let engine (motor) and snow thrower adjust to outdoor temperatures before starting to clear snow.

Always wear safety glasses or eye shields during op- eration or while performing an adjustment or repair to protect eyes from foreign objects that may be thrown from the snow thrower.
