• To prevent fire or burns, do these steps:
- Do not keep flammable items like fuel, leaves,
paper etc around the exhaust pipe.
- Do not touch the engine when it is in
operation.
- Do not open the fuel tank's filler cap when the
engine is hot. The fuel tank contains hot
pressurized gases. Leakage of this gas in air
can start a fire.

The exhaust gas contains chemicals that
can cause cancer, birth defects or cause
problems in the reproductive system.
SPARK ARRESTORS
A spark arrestor is a device that
prevents fires. It collects the flammable
particles in the exhaust gas. This makes
the exhaust gas less flammable.
SPARK ARRESTORS
In some areas, engines that use
hydrocarbon fuels must have spark
arrestors. The State and local safety
codes has a list of these areas. Make sure
that the engine has spark arrestors, if the
selected site area is there in that list.
Servicing must be done by an approved
technician. If there is a problem for
servicing, speak to Atlas Copco. All
servicing must be done when the engine
is off and the power supply is
disconnected.
