should be performed by trained personnel only. To prevent
carbon monoxide poisoning, be sure proper ventilation is
available when engine must be operated in an enclosed area.
Read and observe safety warnings in front of manual.
Your Accu Z wasadjusted before it leftthe factory and was
checked during pre-delivery setup. However, after start-
up and continued use, a certain amount of break-in wear
will cause some adjustments to change.
Remain alert for unusual noises, theycould be signaling a
problem. Visually inspect the machine for any abnormal
wear ordamage. A good timeto detect potential problems
is while performing scheduled maintenance service.

insurance.
