BEFORE OPERATING ACTIVATE AND CHARGE BATTERY (Fig. 2) 1. Since battery is not filled with electrolyte or activated, bulk electrolyte with 1.280 specific gravity must be purchased from a local battery supply cutlet, WARNING Electrolyte gases are explosive and can cause serious injury to eyes, lungs and skin. Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves when working with electrolyte or battery. Charge the battery in a well ventilated place so gasses produced while charging can dissipate.
BEFORE OPERATING FILL FUEL TANK WITH GASOLINE (Fig. 4) THE TOR COMPANY STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THE USE OF FRESH CLEAN, UNLEADED REGULAR GRADE GASOLINE IN TOR GASOLINE POWERED PRODUCTS. UNLEADED GASOLINE BURNS CLEANER, EXTENDS ENGINE LIFE, AND PROMOTES GOOD STARTING BY REDUCING THE BUILD-UP OF COMBUSTION CHAMBER DEPOSITS. DANGER Because gasoline is flammable, caution must be used when storing or handling it. Do not fill fuel tank while engine is l running, hot or when machine is in an enclosed area.
BEFORE OPERATING CHECK PUMP CASE FLUID LEVEL (Fig. 6) The pump crank case is filled at the factory with approximately 40 ounces of Mobil DTE Extra Heavy oit. Check level of ¢il on dipstick before engine is first started and daily thereafter, Change oil initially after 25 hours of operation, thereafter change every 250 hours of operation. The oil must be changed immediately when any contamination, sludge, water or condensation appears in oil or on sight gauge.
