CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
•
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic
liner. Always place containers on the
ground away from your vehicle before
filling.
•
When practical, remove gas-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer
and refuel it on the ground. If this
is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a trailer with a portable
container, rather than from a gasoline
dispenser nozzle.
•
Keep the nozzle in contact with the
rim of the fuel tank or container
opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-
open device.
•
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes
and other sources of ignition.
•
Never fuel machine indoors.
•
Never remove gas cap or add fuel
while the engine is hot or running.
Allow engine to cool at least two
minutes before refueling.
•
Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to
no more than ½ inch below bottom
of filler neck to allow space for fuel
expansion.
•
Replace gasoline cap and tighten
securely.
•
If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the
engine and equipment. Move unit to
another area. Wait 5 minutes before
starting the engine.
•
To reduce fire hazards, keep machine
free of grass, leaves, or other debris
build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage
and remove any fuel soaked debris.
•
Never store the machine or fuel
container inside where there is an
open flame, spark or pilot light as on
a water heater, space heater, furnace,
clothes dryer or other gas appliances.

6.
Keep bystanders away from the machine
while it is in operation. Stop the machine if

7.
Be careful when tilling in hard ground. The
tines may catch in the ground and propel
the tiller forward. If this occurs, let go of the
handle bars and do not restrain the machine.

on or crossing gravel surfaces. Stay alert
for hidden hazards or traffic. Do not carry
passengers.

stop engine before you leave the operating
position (behind the handles). Wait
until the tines come to a complete stop
before unclogging the tines, making any
adjustments, or inspections.

Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly
ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly
gas.
