Engine Safety
For full details of the safe operation and maintenance of the engine refer to the
Briggs & Stratton Vanguard Engine Operator’s Manual supplied with the sprayer.
IMPORTANT:
fire, explosion or injury to the operator can occur if the following
instructions are not followed:
1.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide, an odourless and deadly poison.
2.
Do not fill the petrol (gasoline) tank while the engine is running. Allow the
engine to cool for two minutes before refuelling. Only fill in a well ventilated
area.
3.
If petrol (gasoline) is spilled, move the sprayer away from the area of the spill
and avoid creating any source of ignition until the petrol (gasoline) has
evaporated.
4. Do not operate the engine without a muffler fitted. Inspect the muffler
periodically and replace if necessary.
5.
Do not use the engine on any forest covered, brush covered or grass covered
unimproved land unless a spark arrester is attached to the muffler.
6.
Do not operate the engine if the air cleaner or the cover directly over the
carburettor air intake is removed.
7.
When transporting the sprayer, the fuel shut-off valve must be closed to
prevent fuel leaking from carburettor.
8.
Do not choke the carburettor to stop the engine.
9.
Do not run the engine at excessive speeds.
10. Do not change the engine speed selected by the original equipment
manufacturer.
11. Avoid contact with the exhaust, cylinder or fins when they are hot as contact
may cause burns.
12. To prevent accidental starting when servicing the engine or sprayer, always
remove the spark plug or disconnect the wire from the spark plug.
CAUTION TO UNITED STATES CUSTOMERS:
If this engine is not equipped with a spark arrester and is to be used on any forest
covered, bush covered, or grass covered unimproved land, before using on such
land a spark arrester must be added to the muffler. The arrester must be maintained
in effective working order by the operator. In the State of California the above is
required by law (section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code). Other
states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands. See your
Authorised Briggs & Stratton Service Centre for spark arrester muffler options.
