5. If the engine must be running to perform a main-
tenance adjustment, keep hands, feet, and
clothing away from moving parts. Do not wear
jewelry or loose clothing.
6. Always use the proper engine service
manual when working on the engine.
Unauthorized maintenance operations or
modifications to the engine may result in
unsafe operating conditions.
7. Altering the equipment or engine in any manner
which adversely affects its operation, perfor-
mance, durability, or use will VOID the warranty
and may cause hazardous conditions.
8. Never attempt to disconnect any safety devices
or defeat the purpose of these safety devices.
9. Do not change the engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. The governor has been
factory-set for maximum-safe engine operating
speed.
10. Use genuine factory replacement parts. Sub-
stitute parts may result in product malfunction
and possible injury to the operator and/or
others.

forming maintenance on the battery and
electrical system:
a. Make sure the battery charger is unplugged
before connecting or disconnecting cables
to the battery.
b. Charge the battery in a well-ventilated
space, so gases produced while charging
can dissipate. Make sure the battery vents
in the caps are open.
c. Keep sparks, flames, and smoking materi-
als away from the battery at all times. To
avoid sparks, use care when removing bat-
tery cables from posts.
d. Disconnect both battery cables before un-
