Safety Information

NOTICE

„neveR run engine without an air fi lter or with a dirty air fi lter. Severe engine damage may occur. Service air fi lter frequently to prevent engine malfunction.

„neveR tamper with the factory settings of the engine or engine governor. Damage to the engine or equipment can result if operating in speed ranges above the maximum allowable.

„neveR tip the engine to extreme angles during lifting as it may cause oil to gravitate into the cylinder head, making the engine start diffi cult.

FUEL

„DO nOT start the engine near spilled fuel or combustible fl uids. Diesel fuel is extremely fl ammable and its vapors can cause an explosion if ignited.

„aLWaYs refuel in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks and open fl ames.

„aLWaYs use extreme caution when working with flammable liquids.

„DO nOT fi ll the fuel tank while the engine is running

or hot.

„DO nOT overfi ll tank, since spilled fuel could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine parts or sparks from the ignition system.

„Store fuel in appropriate containers, in well-ventilated areas and away from sparks and fl ames.

„neveR use fuel as a cleaning agent.

„DO nOT smoke around or near the equipment. Fire or explosion could result from fuel vapors or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine.

„DO nOT drop the battery. There is a possibility that the battery will explode.

„DO nOT expose the battery to open fl ames, sparks, cigarettes, etc.The battery contains combustible gases and liquids. If these

gases and liquids come into contact with a fl ame or spark, an explosion could occur.

WaRning

„aLWaYs wear safety glasses when handling the battery to avoid eye irritation. The battery contains acids that can cause injury to the eyes and skin.

„Use well-insulated gloves when picking up the battery.

„aLWaYs keep the battery charged. If the battery is not charged, combustible gas will build up.

„DO nOT charge battery if frozen. Battery can explode. When frozen, warm the battery to at least 61°F (16°C).

„aLWaYs recharge the battery in a well-ventilated environment to avoid the risk of a dangerous concentration

of combustible gases.
