DANGER: RISK TO BREATHING (ASPHYXIATION)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Breathing
ex
haust fumes will cause
se ri ous injury or death! Engine
exhaust contains high levels of
carbon monoxide (CO), a poison-
ous gas you cannot see or smell.
You may be breathing CO even if
you
do not
smell engine exhaust.
•
NEVER
use an engine inside
homes, garages, crawlspaces or
other partly enclosed areas. Deadly
levels of carbon monoxide can
build up in these areas. Using a
fan or opening windows and doors
does
NOT
supply enough fresh air.
•
Only
use outdoors and far away
from open windows, doors and
vents. These openings can pull in
engine exhaust.
•
Keep children, pets and others away
from area of operation.
•
Always keep the exhaust pipe free
of foreign object
