• SAFETY AND INTERNATIONAL SYMBOLS •

This operator's manual describes safety and international symbols and pictographs that may appear on this product.

Read the operator's manual for complete safety, assembly, operating, maintenance, and repair information.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols,

and their explanations, deserve your careful attention and understanding. The safety warnings do

not by themselves eliminate any danger. The instructions or warnings they give are not substitutes

for proper accident prevention measures.

NOTE:

Advises you of information or instructions vital to the operation or maintenance of the equipment.

SYMBOL MEANING

SPARK ARRESTOR NOTE

NOTE: For users on U.S. Forest Land and in the states of California, Maine, Oregon and Washington.

All U.S. Forest Land and the state of California (Public Resources Codes 4442 and 4443), Oregon and

Washington require, by law that certain internal combustion engines operated on forest brush and/or grass-

covered areas be equipped with a spark arrestor, maintained in effective working order, or the engine be

constructed, equipped and maintained for the prevention of fire. Check with your state or local authorities for

regulations pertaining to these requirements. Failure to follow these requirements could subject you to liability

or a fine. This unit is factory equipped with a spark arrestor. If it requires replacement, ask your LOCAL

SERVICE DEALER to install the Accessory Part #753-06182 Muffler Assembly.
