moving parts, etc.

•Used engine oils have been identified by some state and

federal agencies as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. When checking or changing engine oil, take care not to ingest, breathe the fumes, or contact used oil.

•Do not work on this equipment when mentally or physically fatigued, or after consuming any alcohol or drug that makes the operation of equipment unsafe.

BATTERIES

•Before starting work on the engine, disconnect batteries to prevent inadvertent starting of the engine. Disconnect negative (-) cable first.

•DO NOT SMOKE while servicing batteries. Lead acid batteries give off a highly explosive hydrogen gas which can be ignited by flame, electrical arcing or by smoking.

•Verify battery polarity before connecting battery cables. Connect negative (-) cable last.

PROTECT AGAINST MOVING PARTS

•Do not wear loose clothing in the vicinity of moving parts, such as PTO shafts, flywheels, blowers, couplings, fans, belts, etc.

•Keep your hands away from moving parts

FUEL SYSTEMS

•DO NOT fill fuel tank while engine is running

•DO NOT smoke or use an open flame in the vicinity of the engine or fuel tank. Internal combustion engine fuels are highly flammable.

•Fuel line must be made of steel tubing which adequately secured, and free from leaks. Tubing which connects to the carburetor should be factory approved flexible line. Do not use copper tubing as the flexible lines as copper will harden and become brittle enough to break.

•Be sure all fuel supplies have a positive shutoff valve.

•Benzene and lead, found in some gasoline, have been identified by some state and federal agencies as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. When checking, draining, or adding gasoline take care not to ingest, breathe fumes, or contact the gasoline.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

•Exhaust products of any internal combustion engine are toxic and can cause injury, or death it inhaled. When operating the engine in a confined area, make sure the ventilation system is operating properly.

•DO NOT use exhaust gases to heat a compartment.

•Make sure that your exhaust system is free of leaks. Make sure that exhaust manifolds are secure and are not warped by bolts unevenly torqued.

EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY!

Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that can cause unconsciousness and death. It is an odorless and colorless gas formed during combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are:

•Dizziness

•Vomiting

•Headache

•Muscular Twitching

•Throbbing in Temples

•Weakness and Sleepiness

If you experience any of these symptoms, get out into fresh air imme- diately, shut down the unit and do not use it until it has been inspected. The best protection against carbon monoxide inhalation is proper installation and regular, frequent inspections of the complete exhaust system. If you notice a change in the sound or appearance of exhaust system, shut the unit down immediately and have it inspected and repaired at once by a competent mechanic.

KEEP THE UNIT AND SURROUNDING AREA CLEAN

•Make sure that oily rags are not left on or near the engine.

•Remove all unnecessary grease and oil from the unit. Accumulated grease and oil can cause overheating and subsequent engine damage and present a potential fire hazard.
