iNITIAL SERVICING

The engine (See Figure 3) must be checked for proper lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the manufacturer's engine manual for instructions and details of operation and servicing. The engine shown above is a HONDA engine, operation for other types of engines may vary somewhat.

1.Fuel Filler Cap — Remove this cap to add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Make sure cap is tightened securely. DO NOT over fill.

DANGER

Adding fuel to the tank should be done only when the engine is stopped and has had an opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until the fuel residue has been completely wiped up and the area surrounding the engine is dry.

2.Throttle Lever — Used to adjust engine RPM speed (lever advanced forward - SLOW, lever back toward operator - FAST).

3.Engine ON/OFF Switch — ON position permits engine starting, OFF position stops engine operations.

4.Recoil Starter (pull rope) — Manual-starting method. Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and smoothly.

5.Fuel Valve Lever — OPEN to let fuel flow. CLOSE to stop the flow of fuel.

6.Air Cleaner — Prevents dirt and other debris from entering the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter cannister to gain access to filter element.

NOTICE

Operating the engine without an air filter, with a damaged air filter, or a filter in need of replacement will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.

WARNING

Engine components can generate extreme heat . To prevent bur ns, DO NOT touch these areas while the engine is running or immediately after operating. NEVER operate the engine with the muffler removed.

7.Spark Plug — Provides spark to the ignition system. Set spark plug gap to 0.6 - 0.7 mm (0.028 - 0.031 inch). Clean spark plug once a week.

8.Muffler — Used to reduce noise and emissions.

9.Fuel Tank — Holds unleaded gasoline. For additional information refer to engine owner's manual.
