Safe Handling of Gasoline:
To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme care
in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can occur when
gasoline is spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite.
Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.
Use only an approved gasoline container.1.
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer 2.
bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the
ground away from your vehicle before filling.
When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from 3.
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 4.
container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do
not use a nozzle lock-open device.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of 5.
ignition.
Never fuel machine indoors.6.
Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is hot or 7.
running. Allow engine to cool at least two minutes before
refueling.
Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than ½ 8.
inch below bottom of filler neck to allow space for fuel
expansion.
Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.9.
If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. 10.
Move unit to another area. Wait 5 minutes before starting
the engine.
To reduce fire hazards, keep machine free of grass, leaves, 11.
or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and
remove any fuel soaked debris.
Never store the machine or fuel container inside where 12.
there is an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a water
heater, space heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas
appliances.
Operation
Do not put hands and feet near rotating parts or in the 1.
feeding chambers and discharge opening. Contact with
the rotating impeller can amputate fingers, hands, and
feet.
Before starting the machine, make sure the chipper chute, 2.
feed intake, and cutting chamber are empty and free of all
debris.
Thoroughly inspect all material to be shredded and remove 3.
any metal, rocks, bottles, cans, or other foreign objects
which could cause personal injury or damage to the
machine.
If the impeller strikes a foreign object or if your machine 4.
should start making an unusual noise or vibration,
immediately shut the engine off. Allow the impeller to
come to a complete stop. Disconnect the spark plug wire,
ground it against the engine and perform the following
steps:
Inspect for damage.a.
Repair or replace any damaged parts.b.
Check for any loose parts and tighten to assure c.
continued safe operation.
Do not allow an accumulation of processed material to 5.
build up in the discharge area. This can prevent proper
discharge and result in kickback of material through the
feed opening.
Do not attempt to shred or chip material larger than 6.
specified on the machine or in this manual. Personal injury
or machine damage could result.
Never attempt to unclog either the feed intake or discharge 7.
opening while the engine is running. Shut the engine off,
wait until all moving parts have stopped, disconnect the
spark plug wire and ground it against the engine before
clearing debris.

Oil Recommendations
NOTE: This engine is shipped without gasoline or oil in the
engine. Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause
serious engine damage and void the engine warranty.
Use a 4-stroke, or an equivalent high detergent, premium
quality motor oil certified to meet or exceed U.S. automobile
manufacturer’s requirements for service classification SG/SF.
Motor oils classified SG/SF will show this designation on the
container.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general, all temperature use. If
single viscosity oil is used, select the appropriate viscosity for the
average temperature in your area from the chart to the right.
Before starting engine, fill with oil. Do not over-fill. Oil •
capacity is about 20 oz.

Fig. 9-2.
Check Fuel Level
Clean around fuel fill before removing cap to fuel.1.
Fill tank to approximately 1-inch below lowest portion of 2.
neck to allow for fuel expansion. Be careful not to overfill.
NOTE: Before refueling, allow engine to cool 2 minutes.
Starting The Engine
WARNING: Always keep hands and feet clear of
equipment moving parts. Do not use a pressurized
starting fluid. Vapors are flammable.
Pull out the choke knob located on the engine. See Figure 1.
9-3 inset.
Figure 9-2
Insert the dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw it 2.
in. Refer to Fig. 10-1B on page 21.
If the level is low, slowly add oil to the upper limit on the 3.
dipstick. See Fig. 9-2 inset.
Tighten dipstick firmly before starting engine.4.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may cause
smoking, hard starting, spark plug fouling, or oil saturation
of air cleaner.
Fuel Recommendations
Use automotive gasoline (unleaded or low leaded to minimize
combustion chamber deposits) with a minimum of 87 octane.
Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol or 15% MTBE (Methyl Tertiary
Butyl Ether) can be used. Never use an oil/gasoline mixture, dirty
gasoline, or gasoline over 30 days old. Avoid getting dirt, dust, or
water in the fuel tank. DO NOT USE E85 GASOLINE.
WARNING: Gasoline is extremely flammable and is
explosive under certain conditions. Refuel in a wellventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where
the engine is refueled or where gasoline is stored.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or
breathing of vapor.
WARNING: Do not overfill the fuel tank (there
should be no fuel in the filler neck). After refueling,
make sure the tank cap is closed properly and
securely. Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling.
Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite. If any fuel is
spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the
engine.
Figure 9-3
NOTE: Use of the choke may not be necessary if the engine
is warm or the air temperature is high.
Turn engine switch to on.2.
Pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is felt, then pull 3.
rapidly to overcome compression, prevent kickback and
start engine. See Figure 9-3. If engine does not start after
ten seconds of repeated pulls, wait a few minutes and
repeat.

IMPORTANT: Used motor oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly
left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods. Although this
is unlikely unless you handle used oil on a daily basis, it is still
advisable to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as
soon as possible after handling used oil.
NOTE: Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is
compatible with the environment. We suggest you take it in a
sealed container to your local service station for reclamation. Do
not throw it in the trash or pour it on the ground.

Spark Plug Service
Spark Plug
Spark Plug Boot
WARNING: DO NOT check for spark with spark
plug removed. DO NOT crank engine with spark
plug removed.
To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be
properly gapped and free of deposits.
Remove the spark plug boot and use a spark plug wrench 1.
to remove the plug. See Fig. 10-3.
Figure 10-3
WARNING: If the engine has been running, the
muffler will be very hot. Be careful not to touch the
muffler.
2. Visually inspect the spark plug. Discard the spark plug
if there is apparent wear, or if the insulator is cracked or
chipped. Clean the spark plug with a wire brush if it is to be
reused.
3. Measure the plug gap with a feeler gauge. Correct as
necessary by bending side electrode. See Fig. 10-4. The gap
should be set to 0.030 in.
Figure 10-4
4. Check that the spark plug washer is in good condition
and thread the spark plug in by hand to prevent crossthreading.
5. After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a spark plug
wrench to compress the washer.
NOTE: When installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn
after the spark plug seats to compress the washer. When
reinstalling a used spark plug, tighten 1/8-1/4 turn after the
spark plug seats to compress the washer.
IMPORTANT: The spark plug must be securely tightened.
An improperly tightened spark plug can become very hot
and may damage the engine.
22 se c t i O n 10— en g i n e Ma i n t e n a n c e
Fuel Filter Service
The fuel filter cannot be cleaned and must be replaced once a
year or every 100 operating hours; more often if run with old
gasoline.
Remove all fuel from tank by running engine until it stops 1.
from lack of fuel.
Remove c-clamp from fuel line and remove fuel line from 2.
tank outlet. See Fig. 10-5.
Figure 10-5
Pull out old fuel filter from tank outlet. Replace when dirty 3.
or damaged.
Grasp new fuel filter from shouldered end and insert it 4.
completely to the shoulder into the tank outlet. See Fig.
10-5 inset.
Replace fuel line and c-clamp.5.
Clean Engine
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least half
an hour before cleaning. Periodically remove dirt build-up from
engine. Clean finger guard and around muffler. Clean with a
brush or compressed air.
IMPORTANT: Do not spray engine with water to clean because
water could contaminate fuel. Using a garden hose or pressure
washing equipment can also force water into the air cleaner or
muffler opening. Water in the air cleaner will soak the paper
element, and water that passes through the element or muffler
can enter the cylinder, causing damage.
Storage
Engines stored between 30 and 90 days need to be treated with
a gasoline stabilizer and engines stored over 90 days need to be
drained of fuel to prevent deterioration and gum from forming
in fuel system or on essential carburetor parts. If the gasoline in
your engine deteriorates during storage, you may need to have
the carburetor, and other fuel system components, serviced or
replaced.
Remove all fuel from tank by running engine until it stops 1.
from lack of fuel.
WARNING: Never leave engine unattended while
running.
Change oil. See Oil Change section.2.
Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 an ounce of engine 3.
oil into cylinder. Replace spark plug and crank slowly to
distribute oil.
Clean debris from around engine, under finger guard, and 4.
under, around and behind muffler. Touch up any damaged
paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a light film
of oil.
Store in a clean, dry and well ventilated area away from any 5.
appliance that operates with a flame or pilot light, such
as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also avoid any
area with a spark producing electric motor, or where power
tools are operated.
If possible, also avoid storage areas with high humidity, 6.
because that promotes rust and corrosion.
Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or 7.
oil leakage.
Removing From Storage
Check your engine as described in the Pre-Operation Check 1.
section of this manual.
If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the 2.
tank with fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of gasoline
for refueling, make certain it contains only fresh fuel.
Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates over time, causing hard
starting.
If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage 3.
preparation, the engine will smoke briefly at startup. This
is normal.
WARNING: Accumulation of debris around muffler
could cause a fire. Inspect and clean before every
use.

ultimate purchaser.
(a) General Emissions Warranty Coverage
Cub Cadet LLC must warrant to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the engine is:
(1) Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board pursuant to its authority in
Chapters 1 and 2,Part 5, Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code; and
(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects to the part as
described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a period of two years.
(b) The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions required by Subsection (c)
must be warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (a)(2). If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it must
be repaired or replaced by Cub Cadet LLC according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty must be
warranted for the remaining warranty period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions required by Subsection (c) must be warranted for
the warranty period defined in Subsection (a)(2). A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” will
not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty
period.
(3) Any warranted part that which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions required by Subsection (c)
must be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled
replacement, the part must be repaired or replaced by Cub Cadet LLC according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced
under warranty must be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.

such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty station.
(7) The engine manufacturer is liable for damages to other engine components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted
part.
(8) Throughout the engine’s warranty period defined in Subsection (a)(2), Cub Cadet LLC will maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to
meet the expected demand for such parts.
(9) Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without charge to the
owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of Cub Cadet LLC.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or
modified parts shall be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim made in accordance with this article. The engine manufacturer shall not be
liable under this article to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of non-exempted add-on or modified part.
