ventilation is assessed by national labour authorities.
• WARNING. Ensure that any exhaust emissions are not in the vicinity of air intakes.
• Follow the operations described in paragraph "STOP" before topping up with fuel.
• WARNING. Incorrect fuels shall not be used as they may prove hazardous.
• WARNING. Each operation of cleaning, maintenance, replacing parts and conversion of the
