MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

1.Never perform any maintenance while the engine is running or when the spark plug wire is connected to the spark plug, except when specif- ically instructed to do so in this Manual.

2.Check shear bolts and other fasteners at fre- quent intervals for proper tightness to be sure the snowthrower is in safe working condition.

3.Never store the snowthrower with gas in its gas tank inside a building where ignition sources (such as hot water heaters, space heaters, clothes dryers, etc.) are present. Allow the engine to cool before storing the snowthrower in any enclosure.

4.Refer to "Storage" in this Manual and to the Engine Owner'sManual for important details if the snowthrower is to be stored for an extended period.

5.Maintain or replace safety and instructional labels as necessary. (See the Snowthrower Parts Catalog for location of labels.)

6.Run the snowthrower a few minutes after you've finished throwing snow to prevent freeze-up of the auger. Brush off snow build-up on the snowthrower.

7.Remember, the end of the winter is a good time to inspect your snowthrower and order any replacement parts.

8.Use only genuine Troy-Bilt replacement parts. Replacement parts manufactured by others could present safety hazards even though they may fit on this snowthrower.

9.Store gasoline in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away from any sparks or flame producing equipment. Store gasoline in an approved con- tainer, safely out of the reach of children.

10.Touch up scratches, unpainted or rusted areas with paint.
