ENGINE SAFETY
1. ENGINE SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Most accidents with engines can be prevented if you follow all instructions in this manual and on the engine. Some of the most common hazards are discussed below, along with the best way to protect yourself and others.
Owner Responsibilities
zThe engines are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to instructions. Read and understand this owner’s manual before operating the engine. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
zKnow how to stop the engine quickly, and understand the operation of all controls. Never permit anyone to operate the engine without proper instructions.
zDo not allow children to operate the engine. Keep children and pets away from the area of operation.
Refuel With Care
Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can explode. Refuel outdoors, in a well-ventilated area, with the engine stopped. Never smoke near gasoline, and keep other flames and sparks away. Always store gasoline in an approved container. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
Hot Exhaust
zThe muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot. Let the engine cool before storing it indoors.
zTo prevent fire hazards and to provide adequate ventilation for stationary equipment applications, keep the engine at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from building walls and other equipment during operation. Do not place flammable objects close to the engine.
Carbon Monoxide Hazard
Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide. Avoid inhalation of exhaust gas. Never run the engine in a closed garage or confined area.
Other Equipment
Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered by this engine for any additional safety precautions that should be observed in conjunction with engine startup, shutdown, operation, or protective apparel that may be needed to operate the equipment.

Fuel Valve Lever
The fuel valve opens and closes the passage between the fuel tank and the carburetor. The fuel valve lever must be in the ON position for the engine to run.
When the engine is not in use, leave the fuel valve lever in the OFF position to prevent carburetor flooding and to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.

Choke Lever
The choke lever opens and closes the choke valve in the carburetor. The CLOSE position enriches the fuel mixture for starting a cold engine.
The OPEN position provides the correct fuel mixture for operation after starting, and for restarting a warm engine.
Some engine applications use a remotely-mounted choke control rather than the engine-mounted choke lever shown here.

CHECK BEFORE OPERATION
4. CHECK BEFORE OPERATION
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.
Improperly maintaining this engine, or failing to correct a problem before operation, could cause a malfunction in which you could be seriously injured.
Always perform a preoperation inspection before each operation, and correct any problem.
Before beginning your preoperation checks, be sure the engine is level and the engine switch is in the OFF position.
Check the General Condition of the Engine
zLook around and underneath the engine for signs of oil or gasoline leaks.
zRemove any excessive dirt or debris, especially around the muffler and recoil starter.
zLook for signs of damage.
zCheck that all shields and covers are in place, and all nuts, bolts, and screws are tightened.
Check the Engine
Check the engine oil level. Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
The Oil Alert system (applicable engine types) will automatically stop the engine before the oil level falls below safe limits. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always check the engine oil level before startup.
Check the air filter. A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance.
Check the fuel level. Starting with a full tank will help to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.
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.
