How to Prepare The Machine for Operation
1. Before assembling the Litter Vac, remove all parts of the
machine from the two cartons. Fasten the handles and the
filter bag to the main frame. Follow the instructions in the
handle carton.
HOW TO CHECK THE OIL
WARNING: Do not check the engine oil level when
the engine is running. Failure to check
the oil level before you use the machine
can destroy the engine. Always make
sure the machine has the correct amount
of oil.
Follow this procedure to check the oil:
1. Make sure the machine is on level ground.
2. Turn the cap marked "Engine Oil" counterclockwise.
3. Lift the dipstick out of the tube.
4. If the mark is below "OK", add oil. See figure 1.
5. When adding oil, make sure the oil does not pass the mark
"FULL" on the dipstick.
See the engine manual for the correct type of oil.
HOW TO FILL THE GASOLINE TANK
WARNING: Fill the gasoline tank in an open area.
Do not fill the tank near open flames.
Do not fill the gasoline tank while the
engine is running. Gasoline is very flam-
mable and creates vapors. Serious injury
to the operator or others could occur.
WARNING: Gasoline is very flammable. When filling
the gasoline tank, make sure the gaso-
line does not enter the extension. See
figure 2. Make sure you do not spill any
gasoline. Use a cloth to remove spilled
gas.
WARNING: Do not mix oil with the gasoline. Damage
to the engine could occur.
Fill the gasoline tank only with regular unleaded gasoline. The
tank holds four quarts. Use a clean container. Prevent dirt and
debris from falling into the tank. Always tighten the cap on the
tank.
