MOVING PARTS can cause injury.
Moving parts, such as fans, rotors, and belts can cut
fingers and hands and catch loose clothing.
1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards
closed and securely in place.
2. Stop engine before installing or connecting unit.
3. Have only qualified people remove guards or covers for maintenance
and troubleshooting as necessary.
4. To prevent accidental starting during servicing, disconnect negative (-)
battery cable from battery.
5. Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from moving parts.
6. Re-install panels or guards and close doors when servicing is finished
and before starting engine.
SPARKS can cause BATTERY GASES
TO EXPLODE; BATTERY ACID can burn
eyes and skin.
Batteries contain acid and generate explosive gases
1. Always wear a face shield when working on a battery.
2. Stop engine before disconnecting or connecting battery cables.
3. Do not allow tools to cause sparks when working on a battery.
4. Do not use welder to charge batteries or jump start vehicles.
STEAM AND PRESSURIZED HOT
COOLANT can burn face, eyes, and
skin.
The coolant in the radiator can be very hot and under
pressure
1. Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Allow engine to cool.
2. Wear gloves and put a rag over cap area when removing cap.
3. Allow pressure to escape before completely removing cap.
WARNING: This product, when used for welding or cutting, produces fumes or gases which contain chemicals known to the State of
California to cause birth defects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health & Safety Code Sec. 25249.5 et seq.)
NOTE: Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency Electric And Magnetic Fields
The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions Section of the U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Biological Effects of Power
Frequency Electric & Magnetic Fields Background Paper OTA-BP-E-63 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, May 1989): "... there is now a
very large volume of scientific findings based on experiments at the cellular level and from studies with animals and people which clearly establish that low
frequency magnetic fields can interact with, and produce changes in, biological systems. While most of this work is of very high quality, the results are
complex. Current scientific understanding does not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a single coherent framework. Even more frustrating, it does not
yet allow us to draw definite conclusions about questions of possible risk or to offer clear science based advice on strategies to minimize or avoid potential
risks."
To reduce magnetic fields in the work place, use the following procedures:
1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.
2. Do not coil or drape cables around the body.
3. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.
4. Keep welding power source and cables as far away from body as
practical.
About Pacemakers: The above procedures are among those also normally recommended for pacemaker wearers. Consult your doctor for complete
information.
