WARNING:
Before attempting to start
the engine and/or operate the vehicle, read the
owners/operators manual.
• Before operating the engine and/or the
vehicle, install any engine guards that
were removed and clear all personnel
from the immediate area.
• Check that the brakes are fully functional.
• DO NOT exceed the stability limits of
the vehicle.
• Allow only ONE person to have control
of the engine and the vehicle.
WARNING:
Wear protective glasses and
protective shoes.
• Verify that the work area is capable of
supporting the weight of the vehicle
and the torque created by any suspended
load.
• DO NOT work on an engine or a vehicle
that is supported ONLY by a hoist or lift
jacks. Use blocks or suitable stands.
WARNING:
Operate the engine in a
well-ventilated area only. Assure that engine
operation will not produce a concentration of
toxic emissions.
• DO NOT operate the engine in the
presence of a fuel spill or gas leak.
Such combustible vapors, when drawn
into the engine, can cause engine
over-acceleration, explosion, fire, and
extensive personal injury and property
damage. Before operating in any
hazardous environment, consult a
recognized authority (such as the
engine distributor) on engine operation
in hazardous environments.
• DO NOT smoke or operate the engine
during refueling.
WARNING:
When using steam cleaners
and pressure washers, wear protective
glasses, gloves and clothing to help prevent
personal injury.
WARNING:
NEVER use gasoline or
other flammable materials for cleaning parts.
Use only approved cleaning solvents.
WARNING:
DO NOT remove the
radiator cap while the engine and coolant are
hot. Hot coolant under pressure is dangerous
and can injure the eyes and cause severe burns.
• Cooling system corrosion inhibitors
contain alkali (chemicals that break
down organic substances such as skin
and eye tissue) DO NOT swallow.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact
with corrosion inhibitors. In case of skin
contact, immediately wash affected
area with soap and water. In case of
contact with eyes, immediately flood
eyes with large amounts of water for a
minimum of 15 minutes. Obtain medical
assistance immediately. Keep corrosion
inhibitors out of the reach of children.
• DO NOT use salt water or other
corrosive liquid in the cooling system.
