Safety with Gasoline - Powered Engines

GASOLINE IS A HIGHLY FLAMMABLE LIQUID. GASOLINE ALSO GIVES OFF FLAMMABLE VAPOR THAT CAN BE EASILY IGNITED AND CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION. NEVER OVERLOOK THE HAZARDS OF GASOLINE. ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS:

•NEVER RUN THE ENGINE IN AN ENCLOSED AREA OR WITHOUT PROPER VENTILATION AS THE EXHAUST FROM THE ENGINE CONTAINS CARBON MONOXIDE, WHICH IS AN ODORLESS, TASTELESS, AND DEADLY POISONOUS GAS.

•STORE ALL FUEL AND OIL IN CONTAINERS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED AND APPROVED FOR THIS PURPOSE AND KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT AND OPEN FLAME, AND OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

•FILL THE GASOLINE TANK OUTDOORS WITH THE ENGINE OFF AND ALLOW THE ENGINE TO COOL COMPLETELY. DON'T HANDLE GASOLINE IF YOU OR ANYONE NEARBY IS SMOKING, OR IF YOU'RE NEAR ANYTHING THAT COULD CAUSE IT TO IGNITE OR EXPLODE. REINSTALL THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL CONTAINER CAPS SECURELY.

•IF YOU SPILL GASOLINE, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START THE ENGINE. MOVE THE MACHINE AWAY FROM THE AREA OF THE SPILL AND AVOID CREATING ANY SOURCE OF IGNITION UNTIL THE GAS VAPORS HAVE DISSIPATED. WIPE UP ANY SPILLED FUEL TO PREVENT A FIRE HAZARD AND PROPERLY DISPOSE OF THE WASTE.

•ALLOW THE ENGINE TO COOL COMPLETELY BEFORE STORING IN ANY ENCLOSURE. NEVER STORE THE MACHINE WITH GAS IN THE TANK OR A FUEL CONTAINER, NEAR AN OPEN FLAME OR SPARK SUCH AS A WATER HEATER, SPACE HEATER, CLOTHES DRYER OR FURNACE.

•NEVER MAKE ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING OR FLYWHEEL TURNING. STOP THE ENGINE, WAIT FIVE (5) MINUTES TO MAKE CERTAIN THE FLYWHEEL AND ALL MOVING PARTS HAVE COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND COOL. DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRES, KEEPING THEM AWAY FROM THE SPARK PLUGS TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL STARTING.

•DO NOT TAMPER WITH THE ENGINE’S GOVERNOR SETTING. THE GOVERNOR CONTROLS THE MAXIMUM SAFE OPERATION SPEED AND PROTECTS THE ENGINE. OVER-SPEEDING THE ENGINE IS DANGEROUS AND WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE AND TO THE OTHER MOVING PARTS OF THE MACHINE. IF REQUIRED, SEE YOUR AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR ENGINE GOVERNOR ADJUSTMENTS.
