BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS

IS YOUR ENGINE READY TO GO?
For your safety, and to maximize the service life of your equipment, it is
very important to take a few moments before you operate the engine to
check its condition. Be sure to take care of any problem you find, or have
your servicing dealer correct it, before you operate the engine.
Failure to properly maintain this engine, or failing to correct
a problem before operation, could result in a significant
malfunction.
Some malfunctions can cause serious injuries or death.
Always perform a pre-operation inspection before each
operation and correct any problems.
Before beginning your pre-operation checks, be sure the engine is level
and the engine switch is in the OFF position.
Always check the following items before you start the engine:
Check the General Condition of the Engine
1. Before each use, look around and underneath the engine for signs of
oil or gasoline leaks.
2. Remove any excessive dirt or debris, especially around the muffler.
3. Remove any objects or debris that may block the cooling air intake at
the screen grid cover. Running the engine with a blocked air intake
can cause engine damage.
4. Look for signs of damage.
5. Check that all shields and covers are in place, and all nuts, bolts, and
screws are tightened.
Check the Engine
1. Check the fuel level. Starting with a full tank will help to eliminate or
reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
2. Check the engine oil level (see page 7). Running the engine with a
low oil level can cause engine damage.
3. Check the air filter element (see page 9). A dirty air filter element will
restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance.
4. Check the equipment powered by this engine.
Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered by
this engine for any precautions and procedures that should be
followed before engine startup.

OPERATION

SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Before operating the engine for the first time, please review the SAFETY
INFORMATION section on page 2 and the BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS on
page 4.
Carbon Monoxide Hazards
For your safety, do not operate the engine in an enclosed area such as a
garage. Your engine's exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas
that can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause illness or death.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can
build up to dangerous levels in closed areas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause unconsciousness or
death.
Never run the engine in a closed, or even partly closed area.
Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered by this
engine for any safety precautions that should be observed with engine
startup, shutdown, or operation.
Do not operate the engine on slopes greater than 20° (36%).

STARTING THE ENGINE

1. If the fuel tank is equipped with a valve, be sure the fuel valve is in the
OPEN or ON position before attempting to start the engine.
2. To start a cold engine, move the choke lever to the CLOSED position.
To restart a warm engine, leave the choke lever in the OPEN position.
Some engine applications use a remote-mounted choke control
rather than the engine-mounted choke lever shown here. Refer to
the instructions provided with the equipment powered by this
engine for remote control information.
