IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL! This
equipment and/or its engine may include
evaporative emissions control system
components, required to meet EPA and/or
CARB regulations, that will only function
properly when the fuel tank has been filled to
the recommended level. Overfilling may
cause permanent damage to evaporative
emissions control system components. Filling
to the recommended level ensures a vapor
gap required to allow for fuel expansion. Pay
close attention while filling the fuel tank to
ensure that the recommended fuel level
inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a
portable gasoline container with an
appropriately sized dispensing spout when
filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other
device that obstructs the view of the tank
filling process.
6. Replace fuel cap and tighten.
7. ALWAYS clean up spilled fuel.

impeller to be sure it is not frozen.
To check impeller:
1. With ignition key switch in “Stop”
position, squeeze Attachment Clutch
Lever to Engaged position.
2. Pull Recoil Starter Handle.
3. If Impeller is frozen, (cannot pull Recoil
Starter Handle) move unit to a heated
area and thaw to prevent possible

2. Check Function of Clutches
If clutches do not engage or disengage

tion. See Attachment Clutch/Brake
Adjustment on page 30 and Traction
Drive Clutch Adjustment on page 33.
3. Check Dual Handle Interlock
Without the engine running, press down
(engage) both clutch levers. Release
attachment clutch lever. Attachment
clutch should remain engaged until trac-
tion drive clutch lever is released, then
both clutches must disengage.

tion. See Attachment Clutch/Brake
Adjustment on page 30 and Traction
Drive Clutch Adjustment on page 33.
4. Check Axle Lock Pins

Use the axle lock pins to lock or unlock
the wheels. Lock both wheels to
increase traction; unlock one wheel to
allow for easier turning of the unit.
5. Check Skid Shoes
Check and adjust skid shoes (see Skid
Shoes on page 28). Allow 1/8" (3 mm)
between scraper blade and hard,
smooth surface(s). Allow 7/8" (22 mm)
