SAFETY DECALS
This tiller has been designed and manufactured to provide
you with the safety and reliability you would expect from an
industry leader in outdoor power equipment manufacturing.
Reading this manual and the safety instructions it contains will

safety instruction text in this manual.
BURNS AND FIRES
The muer, muer guard and other parts of the engine become
extremely hot during the operation of the engine. These parts
remain extremely hot after the engine has stopped.
Prevention of Burns and Fires
• If you smell propane (identied by a sour, rotten
egg smell) do not start or run the engine. If there is
a build up of propane, leave the area immediately. If
necessary, call the local re department for assistance.
• Do a visual inspection of the propane tank, hose, and
tting seals before connecting the propane cylinder
to the engine. Do not connect a propane cylinder that
has damaged or missing seals.
• Always disconnect the regulator hose from the
propane cylinder before transporting or storage.
• Use a protective cap on the propane cylinder when
not attached to the engine. This will help keep the
cylinder valve clean.
• Do not over tighten propane cylinder when attaching
to fuel line. Damage to regulator or propane cylinder
seals can occur.
• Check for suspected propane leaks with soapy water
on connections. If bubble are observed, inspect and
retighten tting. Repair all leaks before use.
• Use caution when handling propane. Propane if
ammable.
• Never remove the muer guard from the engine.
• Never touch the muer guard because it is extremely
hot and will cause severe burns.
• Never touch parts of the engine that become hot after
operation.
• Always keep materials and debris away from muer
guard and other hot parts of the engine to avoid res.
Children and bystanders
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children and/or bystanders. Never assume that
others will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, especially
small children and pets. Keep children under the
watchful care of a responsible adult.
• Be alert and turn machine o if children enter the area.
• Before and while moving backwards, look behind and
down for small children.
• Never allow children to operate the machine.
• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.
Service
• Always stop the engine whenever you leave the equipment,
before cleaning, repairing or inspecting the unit. Engine
