3.5 Information and safety signals
Accidental Starts can cause
severe injury or death.
Before working on the engine or equipment,
disconnect the battery negative (-) wire.
Hot Parts can cause severe
burns.
Engine components can get extremely hot
from operation. Do not touch engine while
operating or just after stopping.
Never operate the engine with heat shields or
guards removed.
Rotating Parts can cause
severe injury.
Stay away while engine is in operation. Keep
hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all
moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate
the engine with covers, shrouds, or guards
removed.
Carbon Monoxide can cause
severe nausea, fainting or
death.
HIGH PRESSURE FLUID RISK OF PUNCTURE
High Pressure Fluids can puncture skin
and cause severe injury or death.
Work on the injection system must be carried out by
suitably trained staff wearing protection equipment.
Injuries caused by fluid penetration are highly toxic
and dangerous.
If an injury occurs, seek immediate medical
attention.
Explosive fuel can cause fires and
severe burns.
Fuel is flammable and its vapours can ignite. Store
fuel only in approved containers, in well ventilated,
unoccupied buildings. Do not fill the fuel tank while the
engine is hot or running, since spilled fuel could ignite
if it comes in contact with hot parts or sparks from
ignition. Do not start the engine near spilled fuel.
Never use fuel as a cleaning agent.
Explosive Gas can cause fires and
severe acid burns.
Charge battery only in a well ventilated area. Keep
sparks, open flames, and other sources of ignition
away from the battery at all times. Batteries produce
explosive hydrogen gas while being charged.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Remove
all jewelry when servicing batteries. Before
disconnecting the negative (-) ground cable, make
sure all switches are OFF. If ON, a spark will occur at
the ground cable terminal which could cause an
explosion.
