notice regarding emissions
Engines which are certified to comply with California and federal EPA emission
regulations for SORE (Small Off Road Equipment) are certified to operate on
regular unleaded gasoline, and may include the following emission control sys-
tems: Engine Modification (EM) and Three Way Catalyst (TWC) if so equipped.
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation
regularly. Refer to the maintenance and adjustment sections of this
manual.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting machine disengage all control
levers and stop the engine. Wait until the auger/impeller come to a
complete stop. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against the
engine to prevent unintended starting.
Check bolts and screws for proper tightness at frequent intervals to keep
the machine in safe working condition. Also, visually inspect machine for
any damage.
Do not change the engine governor setting or over-speed the engine.
The governor controls the maximum safe operating speed of the engine.

Check controls periodically to verify they engage and disengage
properly and adjust, if necessary. Refer to the adjustment section in this
operator's manual for instructions.
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.
Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for gas, oil, etc. to protect
the environment.
Prior to storing, run machine a few minutes to clear snow from machine
