SAFETY MESSAGES

Your safety and the safety of others are very important. We have
provided important safety messages in this manual and on the
engine. Please read these messages carefully.
A safety message alerts you to potential hazards that could hurt
you or others. Each safety message is preceded by a safety alert
symbol and one of three words, DANGER, WARNING, or
CAUTION.
These signal words mean:
You WILL be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don't follow instructions.
You CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don't follow instructions.
You CAN be HURT if you don't follow
instructions.
Each message tells you what the hazard is, what can happen, and
what you can do to avoid or reduce injury.
DAMAGE PREVENTION MESSAGES
You will also see other important messages that are preceded by
the word NOTICE.
This word means:
Your engine or other property can be damaged if you
don't follow instructions.
The purpose of these messages is to help prevent damage to your
engine, other property, or the environment.
