Do not allow familiarity with this product to make you
careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a se-
cond is sufficient to inflict serious injury.

Always wear eye protection along with hearing protecti-
on. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown
into your eyes and other possible serious injuries.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not recom-
mended by the manufacturer of this product. The use
of attachments or accessories not recommended can
result in serious injury
WARNING:
Operation of this equipment could create sparks that
can start fires around dry vegetation. A spark arrestor
may be required. The operator should contact local fire
agencies for laws or regulations relating to fire preven-
tion requirements.
USING THE RIGHT FUEL
The use of old fuel is the most common cause of per-
formance problems. Use only fresh, clean unleaded
gasoline less than 30 days old.
NOTICE: This unit has a four-cycle engine. DO NOT
mix oil with gasoline.
Definition of Blended Fuels
Today’s fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxyge-
nates such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE (ether). Alco-
hol-blended fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in
the fuel can make fuel and oil separate, forming acids
when stored. ALWAYS use fresh fuel (less than 30 days
old) with less than 10% ethanol. Dispose of old fuel ac-
cording to federal, state and local regulations.
Using Blended Fuels
If using a blended fuel:
Always use fresh unleaded gasoline.
Use the fuel additive STA-BILL
®
or an equivalent.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE E85 OR E15 FUEL IN THIS UNIT. It
has been proven that fuel containing greater than 10%
ethanol will likely damage this engine and void the
warranty.
WARNING:
Operate this unit only in a well-ventilated outdoor area.
Carbon monoxide exhaust fumes can be lethal in a con-
fined area
USING THE RIGHT OIL TYPE
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the crankcase
is extremely important.
Check the oil before each use and change the oil regu-
larly. Failure to use the correct oil, or using dirty oil, can
cause premature engine wear and failure.
Use a high-quality SAE 10W-30 weight oil of API (Ame-
rican Petroleum Institute) service class SF, SG, SH.
WARNING:
Avoid accidentally starting the unit. To avoid serious in-
jury, the operator and the unit must be in a stable posi-
tion when pulling the starter rope.
WARNING:
Do not operate the unit inside a closed environment,
such as a room or building; breathing carbon monoxide
from exhaust fumes can kill.
WARNING:
Inspect unit before each use. Replace damaged parts.
Check for fuel leaks. Make sure all fasteners are in pla-
ce and secure. Replace cutting attachment parts that
are cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way. Make
sure the cutting attachment is properly installed and
securely fastened. Make sure the cutting attachment
shield is properly attached and in the position recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
CAUTION:
Clear the area to be tilled before each use. Remove
all objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or
string which can be thrown or become entangled in the
cutting attachment. Clear the area of children, bystan-
ders, and pets outside a 50 ft (15 m) radius: there is still
a risk of injury from thrown objects outside the 50 ft (15
m) zone. Bystanders should be encouraged to wear eye
protection.
If you are approached, stop the engine and cutting
attachment. In the case of bladed units, there is the
added risk of injury to bystanders from being struck with
the moving blade.
WARNING:
In some countries regulations define at what time of the
day and on what special days products are allowed to
be used and what restrictions apply! Ask your commu-
nity for detailed information and observe the regulations
in order to preserve a peaceful neighborhood and avoid
committing administrative offences.
