Never over fill fuel tank.
•
Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
•
If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. Move machine to another area. Wait 5
minutes before starting the engine.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, spark or pilot light (e.g.
furnace, water heats, space heater, clothes dryer etc.).
•
Allow machine to cool at least 5 minutes before storing.
•
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
•
If possible, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground.
•
If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than
from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
•
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling
is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock open device.
OPERATION
•
Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts, in the auger impeller housing or chute assembly. Contact
with the rotating parts can amputate hands and feet.
•
The auger (impeller) control lever is a safety device. Never bypass its operation. Doing so makes the
machine unsafe and may cause personal injury.
•
The control levers must operate easily in both directions and automatically return to the disengaged
(vertical) position when released.
•
Never operate with a missing or damaged chute assembly. Keep all safety devices in place and
working.
•
Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,
an odorless and deadly gas.
•
Do not operate machine while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
Muffler and engine become hot and can cause burning. Do not touch. Keep children away.
•
Exercise extreme caution when operating on or crossing gravel surfaces. Stay alert for hidden hazards
or traffic.
•
Exercise caution when changing direction and while operating on slopes.
