PROTECTIVE COVER
■Place the protective covers over the rotating parts.
If rotating parts such as the drive shaft, pulley, belt, etc. are left exposed, they are potentially hazardous.
To prevent injury, equip them with protective covers or shrouds.
■Be careful of hot parts.
The muffler and other engine parts become very hot while the engine is running or just after it has stopped. Operate the engine in a safe area and keep children away from the running engine.
■Never make adjustments on the machinery while it is connected to the engine, without first removing the ignition cable from the spark plug. Turning the crankshaft by hand during adjusting or cleaning might start the engine, and the machinery with it, causing serious injury to the operator.
■Never run the engine with governor disconnected, or operate at speeds in excess of 3600 rpm load.
SURROUNDINGS
■Operate the engine on a stable, level surface free of small rocks, loose gravel, etc.
NOTE
Operating the engine at a steep incline may cause seizure due to improper lubrication even with a maximum oil level.
