(e)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.

WARNING: Snow throwers have ex- posed rotating parts, which can cause severe injury from contact, or from ma- terial thrown from the discharge chute. Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, small children and pets at all times including startup.

CAUTION: Muffler and other engine parts become extremely hot during operation and remain hot after engine has stopped. To avoid severe burns on contact, stay away from these areas.

(f)Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times, until refuel- ing is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

(g)Replace gasoline cap securely and wipe up spilled fuel.

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

5.Use extension cords and receptacles as specified by the manufacturer for all units with electric drive motors or electric starting motors.

6.Adjust the collector housing height to clear gravel or crushed rock surface.

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

8.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 machine.

Operation

1.Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.

2.Exercise extreme caution when operating on or cross- ing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert for hidden hazards or traffic.

3.After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor), remove the wire from the spark plug, disconnect the cord on electric motors, thoroughly inspect the snow thrower for any damage, and repair the damage before restarting and operating the snow thrower.

4.If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

5.Stop the engine (motor) whenever you leave the oper- ating position, before unclogging the collector/impeller housing or discharge chute, and when making any repairs, adjustments or inspections.
