6. EXHAUST GASES & FIRE PREVENTION
A Engine exhaust fumes can be very harmful if allowed to
accumulate. Be sure to run the engine in a well
ventilated location and where there are no people or
livestock near the engine.
A The exhaust gas from the muffler is very hot. To prevent
a fire, do not expose dry grass, mowed grass, oil or any
other combustible materials to exhaust gas. Keep the
engine and muffler clean at all times.
A To avoid a fire, be alert for leaks of flammable
substances from hoses and lines. Be sure to check for
leaks from hoses or pipes, such as fuel and hydraulic
fluid by following the maintenance check list.
A To avoid a fire, do not short across power cables and
wires. Check to see that all power cables and wirings
are in good condition. Keep all electrical connections
clean. Bare wire or frayed insulation can cause a
dangerous electrical shock and personal injury.
7. ESCAPING FLUID
A Relieve all pressure in the air, the oil and the cooling
systems before disconnecting any lines, fittings or
related items.
A Be
cautious of
disconnecting any device from a pressurized system
that utilizes pressure. DO NOT check for pressure leaks
with your hand. High pressure oil or fuel can cause
personal injury.
A Escaping fluid under pressure has sufficient force to
penetrate skin causing serious personal injury.
A Fluid escaping from pinholes may be invisible. Use a
piece of cardboard or wood to search for suspected
leaks: do not use hands and body. Use safety goggles
or other eye protection when checking for leaks.
A If injured by escaping fluid, see a medical doctor
immediately. This fluid can produce gangrene or severe
allergic reaction.
