BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS

IS YOUR ENGINE READY TO GO?
For your safety, to ensure compliance with environmental regulations,
and to maximize the service life of your equipment, it is very important
to take a few moments before you operate the engine to check its
condition. Be sure to take care of any problem you find, or have your
servicing dealer correct it, before you operate the engine.
Improperly maintaining this engine, or failing to correct a problem
before operation, could cause a malfunction in which you could be
seriously injured.
Always perform a pre-operation inspection before each operation,
and correct any problem.
Before beginning your preoperation checks, be sure the engine is
level and the throttle lever or engine stop switch is in the STOP or
OFF position.
Always check the following items before you start the engine:
1. Fuel level
(page
6).
2. Oil level
(page
7).
®
The Oil Alert
system (applicable engine types) will automatically
stop the engine before the oil level falls below safe limits. However,
to avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always
check the engine oil level before startup.
3. Air cleaner
(page
7).
4. General inspection: Check for fluid leaks and loose or damaged
parts.
5. Check the equipment powered by this engine.
