ENGINE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Warning Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Engines give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless,

poisonous gas. Carbon monoxide may be present even if you do

not smell or see any engine exhaust. Breathing carbon monoxide

can cause nausea, fainting or death, in addition to drowsiness,

dizziness and confusion. If you experience any of these

symptoms, seek fresh air and medical attention immediately.

If your product comes with a separate engine manual, be

sure to read and follow all safety and warning precautions

outlined there, in addition to any in this manual.

Preventing Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

 Always start and run engine outdoors. Do not start or run

engine in an enclosed area, even if doors or windows are open.

 Never try to ventilate engine exhaust indoors. Carbon

monoxide can reach dangerous levels very quickly.

 Never run engine outdoors where exhaust fumes may be

pulled into a building.

 Never run engine outdoors in a poorly ventilated area where

the exhaust fumes may be trapped and not easily taken

away. (Examples include: in a large hole or areas where hills

surround your working area.)

 Never run engine in an enclosed or partially enclosed area.

(Examples include: buildings that are enclosed on one or

more sides, under tents, car ports or basements.)

 Always run the engine with the exhaust and muer pointed

in the direction away from the operator.

 Never point the exhaust muer towards anyone. People

should always be many feet away from the operation of the

engine and its attachments.

 Do not change the engine governor settings or over-speed

the engine.

WARNING

ENGINES GIVE OFF CARBON MONOXIDE, AN ODOR

LESS, COLORLESS, POISONOUS GAS. CARBON MON

OXIDE MAY BE PRESENT EVEN IF YOU DO NOT SMELL

OR SEE ANY ENGINE EXHAUST. BREATHING CAR

BON MONOXIDE CAN CAUSE NAUSEA, FAINTING OR

DEATH, IN ADDITION TO DROWSINESS, DIZZINESS

AND CONFUSION.

IF YOU EXPERIENCE ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS, SEEK

FRESH AIR AND MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

Gasoline Fires and Handling Fuel Safely

Use extra care in handling gasoline and other fuels. They are

ammable and vapors are explosive.

 When storing extra fuel be sure that it is in an appropriate

container and away from any re hazards.

 Prevent re and explosion caused by static electric discharge.

Use only nonmetal, portable fuel containers approved by the

Underwriter’s Laboratory (U.L.) or the American Society for

Testing & Materials (ASTM).

 Always ll fuel tank outside in a well ventilated area. Never

fill your fuel tank with fuel indoors. (Examples include:

basement, garage, barn, shed, house, porch, etc.) Never

ll tank near appliances with pilot lights, heaters, or other

ignition sources. If the fuel has to be drained, this should

be done outdoors. The drained fuel should be stored in a

container specically designed for fuel storage or it should

be disposed of carefully.

 Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel with the engine

running. Stop engine and allow to cool before lling.

 Never drain fuel from engine in an enclosed area.

 Always wipe up excess (spilled) fuel from engine before

starting. Clean up spilled fuel immediately. If fuel is spilled,

do not start the engine but move product and fuel container

from area. Clean up spilled fuel and allow to evaporate and

dry after wiping and before starting.

 Allow fuel fumes/vapors to escape from the area before

starting engine.

 Test the fuel cap for proper installation before starting and

using engine.

 Always run the engine with fuel cap properly installed on

the engine.

 Never smoke while relling engine fuel tank.

 Do not store engine with fuel in fuel tank indoors. Fuel and

fuel vapors are highly explosive.
