gasoline has been spilled. Clean spilled gasoline before starting the Engine and dis-
pose of cleaning materials in a ventilated metal container. Do not operate near a pilot
light or open flame.
Operate the engine in well ventilated areas only. Carbon Monoxide is produced dur-
ing operation and is deadly in a closed environment. Early signs of Carbon Monoxide
poisoning resemble the flu, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you have these
symptoms the engine may not be working properly, or it is being utilized with too little
ventilation in the work area. Get fresh air immediately.

22.
if the engine is installed indoors, exhaust fumes must be piped out of the building
using leak-free, heat-resistant piping. Pipes and silencer should not use any flam-
mable materials, nor should they be installed near the same. Engine exhaust fumes
should be within legal limits.
engine fuel and fumes are flammable, and potentially explosive. do not smoke,
or allow sparks, flames or other sources of ignition around the engine, fuel tanks,
or batteries. Use proper fuel storage and handling procedures. Always have multiple
ABC class fire extinguishers nearby.
23.
24.
never store fuel or other flammable materials near the engine.
keep hands, arms, long hair, loose clothing, and jewelry away from pulleys, belts,
and other moving parts. Be aware that when Engine parts are moving fast they can-
not be seen clearly.
25.
the engine can produce high noise levels. Prolonged exposure to noise levels
above 85 dBA is hazardous to hearing. Always wear ANSI-approved ear protection
when operating or working around the Engine when it is running.

emission control system warranty
california and united states emission control defects warranty statement
The California Air Resources Board (herein CARB), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (herein EPA), and Harbor Freight
Tools® (herein HFT) are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your 1995 and later Small Off-Road Engine (herein
engine). In California, the engine must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. Elsewhere within
the United States, new off-road, spark-ignition engines certified for model year 1997 and later, must meet similar standards set forth by the
EPA. HFT must warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods of time described below, provided there has been no
abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel-injection system, and the ignition system. Also included may
be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, HFT will repair your engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s warranty coverage
The 1995 and later engines are warranted for two (2) years. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired
or replaced by HFT.

Owner’s warranty responsibilities
-
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s Manual. HFT recom-
mends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your engine, but HFT cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts

As the engine owner, you should, however, be aware that HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part has failed due
to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for shipping your engine to a HFT warranty station as soon as a problem exists. Contact the HFT Customer Service
department at the number below to make shipping arrangements. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount
of time, not to exceed 30 days.
