SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work Area

1.Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite acci- dents.

2.Do not operate the Engine in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Gasoline engines create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3.Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distrac- tions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed. Children should never be allowed in the work area.

Personal Safety

1.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the Engine may result in serious personal injury.

2.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

3.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the Engine in unexpected situations.

4.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, nonskid

safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropri- ate conditions. Always wear ANSI-approved safety goggles when using or performing maintenance on this Engine.

Tool Use And Care

1.Do not force the Engine. Use the correct Engine for your application. The correct Engine will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Do not force the Engine and do not use the Engine for a purpose for which it is not intended.
