not wear loose clothing such
as
scarves that
could get caught
in
the rotating parts of the
snowthrower.

especially when operating
in

is
connected to the spark plug, except when specif-
ically instructed to do
so
in
this Manual.

at
fre-
quent intervals for proper tightness to
be
sure
the snowthrower
is
in
safe working condition.
3.
Never store the snowthrower with gas

the snowthrower a few minutes after you've

is
a good time
to inspect your snowthrower and order any
replacement parts.

at
all times. Contact your local servicing dealer or the
factory for replacements if any of these decals
is
missing or becomes illegible.
