„The engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can cause death if inhaled.

„The engine of this equipment requires an adequate free fl ow of cooling air. NeveR

operate this equipment in any enclosed or narrow area where free fl ow of the air is

restricted. If the air fl ow is

restricted it will cause injury to people and property and serious damage to the equipment or engine.

WaRNiNg

„NeveR operate the engine with heat shields or guards removed.

„dO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot. Hot oil will gush out of the engine crankcase and severely scald any persons in the general area of the generator.

CauTiON

„NeveR touch the hot exhaust manifold, muffl er or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool

before servicing equipment.

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.

„State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources Codes specify that in certain locations, spark arresters must be used on internal combustion engines that use hydrocarbon fuels. A spark arrester is a device designed

to prevent accidental discharge of sparks or fl ames from the engine exhaust. Spark arresters are qualifi ed and rated by the United States Forest Service for this purpose. In order to comply with local laws regarding spark arresters, consult the engine distributor or the local Health and Safety Administrator.

„dO NOT add fuel to equipment if it is placed inside truck bed with plastic liner. Possibility exists of explosion or fi re due to static electricity.

„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.
