8.1 Safety instructions
– Never run the engine in an enclosed space.
– Provide a proper gas-tight discharge for exhaust gases.
– Provide sufficient ventilation.
– Never fill the fuel tank while the engine is running.
– Wear hearing protection while in the vicinity of a running engine.
WARNING
It is the employer's responsibility to ensure that the safety measures (such as
protection against overload) and the resulting actions (such as shut-down of the
engine) are included in the safety circuit.
DANGER
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is a colourless,
odourless and deadly gas which, when inhaled, prevents the body from absorbing
oxygen, resulting in asphyxiation. Severe carbon monoxide poisoning can result in
brain damage or death.
