factory approved V-belt and diamond blade guards

condition. If any decal becomes damaged and/or
unreadable, replace with a genuine, factory
approved, replacement part only.

vibration. Replace all self locking hardware with
genuine, factory approved, replacement parts only.
9) Consult the material supplied by the engine or
electric motor manufacturer for specific information
relative to proper operational, lubrication and
