MTD 600 Series E F Style Snow Blower Owners Manual

Safe Handling of Gasoline
5.
Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly  ventilated area.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,  an odorless
and deadly gas.
To avoid personal injury or property  damage use extreme care
in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely  flammable and the
vapors are explosive. Serious  personal injury can occur when
gasoline is spilled on yourself  or your clothes which can ignite.
Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.

6.      If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally, stop
the engine, disconnect the spark  plug wire and ground it
against the engine. Inspect  thoroughly for damage. Repair
any damage before starting  and operating.
k.      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.
7.      Disengage all control levers and stop engine before  you
leave the operating position (behind  the handles). Wait
until the auger/impeller comes to a complete stop before
unclogging the chute assembly, making any adjustments,
or inspections.
l.
If possible, 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.

8.      Never put your hand in the discharge or collector
openings. Always use the clean-out  tool provided to
unclog the discharge opening. Do  not unclog chute
assembly while engine is running.  Shut off engine and
remain behind handles until all moving  parts have stopped
before unclogging.
m.    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.

Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts,  in the auger/
impeller housing or chute assembly. Contact  with the
rotating parts can amputate  hands and feet.
0.      When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance
is felt, then pull rapidly. Rapid retraction  of starter cord
(kickback) will pull hand and arm  toward engine faster than
you can let go. Broken bones, fractures,  bruises or sprains
could result.
The auger/impeller control lever is a safety  device. Never
bypass its operation. Doing  so makes the machine unsafe
and may cause personal injury.
The control levers must operate easily  in both directions
and automatically return to the disengaged  position when
released.
