HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:

This vacuum is self-propelled. To engage the drive, pull operator's bail against operator's handle. The drive is disen- gaged by releasing the operator's bail.

GROUND SPEED can be varied by applying slight downward pressure to handle during operation (to allow drive wheels partial slippage) or by changing the engine rpm.

For improved control in confined areas, this machine can be freewheel pushed forward or backward by releasing the operator's bail and pushing machine.

16.5STORAGE

HANDLING & TRANSPORTING: Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly venti- lated areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliance.

If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as follows:

16.5STORAGE Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Remove all gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away from open flame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine runs out of gasoline.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carburetor.

Do not store with debris in bag.

16.12 TAMPER

Before turning machine off, use the Tamper to slowly push remaining pieces of wood through the chipper. This can prevent any remaining wood from jamming in the chipper when machine is turned off.
