„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.
