Summary of Important Safety Information (Continued)
Safety After Use
Cool engine before storing. Let engine cool for at least five (5) minutes before storing. A hot engine can be a fire
hazard.
Shut off fuel supply. If equipped, make sure gasoline shut-off lever is in the closed position (to the left).
Prevent accidental starting. When Hydraulic Power Pack is not in use, remove key from starter (electric start engines)
and secure in a safe location, or remove spark plug in order to ensure that Hydraulic Power Pack cannot be
started in a storage location or by untrained persons.
Storage location. Store the Hydraulic Power Pack in a dry location away from sources of heat, open flames, sparks or
pilot lights, such as water heaters, space heaters, furnaces, clothes dryers, or other gas appliances, EVEN IF the
Hydraulic Power Pack’s gas tank is empty. Residual gasoline could ignite.
Exercise regularly. Exercise the Hydraulic Power Pack’s engine every four (4) weeks to dry out moisture that
accumulates in the windings. If engine cannot be exercised on a regular basis, prepare it for long-term (seasonal)
storage.
Safety Inspection/Maintenance
Inspect and maintain your Hydraulic Power Pack on a regular basis and repair as needed to keep it in safe working
condition:
Turn off Hydraulic Power Pack. Always turn off Hydraulic Power Pack and remove spark plug or spark plug wire
before working on the engine or Hydraulic Power Pack to prevent accidental starting.
Burns. Do not touch hot muffler. Muffler will be hot even if unit is stopped. Allow unit to cool before servicing.
Burns. Do not remove hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine is running or hot. Hot oil can escape and cause severe
burns. Allow Hydraulic Power Pack to cool completely before removing hydraulic oil fill cap.
Replacement parts. If a part needs replacement, only use parts that meet the manufacturer’s specifications.
Replacement parts that do not meet specifications may result in a safety hazard or poor operation of the
Hydraulic Power Pack and will void the warranty.
