TPC80 Operations Manual

1.4.3 DO NOT test for spark on gasoline-powered engines, if engine is flooded or the smell
of gasoline is present. A stray spark could ignite fumes.
1.4.4 DO NOT use gasoline or other types of fuels or flammable solvents to clean parts,
especially in enclosed areas. Fumes from fuels and solvents can become explosive.

hot muffler could ignite them, starting a fire.

recommended by Tomahawk Power.
1.4.7 ALWAYS disconnect spark plug on machines equipped with gasoline engines, before
servicing, to avoid accidental start-up.
1.4.8 ALWAYS keep machine clean and labels legible. Replace all missing and hard-to-read
labels. Labels provide important operating instructions and warn of dangers and hazards.
