How To Start The Engine

WARNING
POISONOUS GAS HAZARD. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that could kill
you in minutes. You CANNOT see it, smell it, or taste
it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could
still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas. If you start
to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using this product,
shut it off and get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a
doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Operate this product ONLY outside far away from
windows, doors and vents to reduce the risk of carbon
monoxide gas from accumulating and potentially
being drawn towards occupied spaces.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or
plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up
according to the manufacturer's instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
• DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages,
basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or other partially-
enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors
and windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can
quickly build up in these spaces and can linger for
hours, even after this product has shut off.
• ALWAYS place this product downwind and point the
engine exhaust away from occupied spaces.
Electric Start:
1. Sit squarely in the operator seat.
2. Manual Drive Models - Move the transmission shift lever
to the Neutral ('N') position. Refer to "How To Engage
The Transmission".
WARNING
DO NOT start the engine with the transmission shift lever
in a drive position. Follow starting instructions carefully.
