Maintenance and storage tips for your McCulloch lawn vacuum

• Never disable or tamper with safety devices on your lawn vacuum. Repair any safety device that malfunctions.
• Check bolts, screws and fasteners for proper tightness before every use to keep the lawn vacuum in safe working condition. Tighten any loose fasteners before using the lawn vacuum.
• Don't change engine governor settings to speed up the engine. The governor is set to run the engine at maximum safe operating speed.
