SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
1-4
Manual 0-5338
2. Do not add fuel while smoking or if unit is near any sparks
or open flames.
3. Allow engine to cool before fueling. If possible, check and
add fuel to cold engine before beginning job.
4. Do not overfill tank — allow room for fuel to expand.
5. Do not spill fuel. If fuel is spilled, clean up before starting
engine.
WARNING
MOVING PARTS can cause injury.
Moving parts, such as fans, rotors, and belts can cut fingers
and hands and catch loose clothing.
1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and
securely in place.
2. Stop engine before installing or connecting unit.
3. Have only qualified people remove guards or covers
for maintenance and troubleshooting as necessary.
4. To prevent accidental starting during servicing,
disconnect negative (-) battery cable from battery.
5. Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from
moving parts.
6. Reinstall panels or guards and close doors when
servicing is finished and before starting engine.
WARNING
SPARKS can cause BATTERY GASES TO EXPLODE;
BATTERY ACID can burn eyes and skin.
Batteries contain acid and generate explosive gases.
1. Always wear a face shield when working on a battery.
2. Stop engine before disconnecting or connecting battery
cables.
3. Do not allow tools to cause sparks when working on a
battery.
4. Do not use welder to charge batteries or jump start
vehicles.
5. Observe correct polarity (+ and –) on batteries.
WARNING
STEAM AND PRESSURIZED HOT COOLANT can
burn face, eyes, and skin.
The coolant in the radiator can be very hot and
under pressure.
1. Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Allow
engine to cool.
2. Wear gloves and put a rag over cap area when removing
cap.
3. Allow pressure to escape before completely removing
cap.

NOTE
Considerations About Welding And The Effects
of Low Frequency Electric and Magnetic Fields
The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions
Section of the U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assess-
ment, Biological Effects of Power Frequency Electric & Mag-
netic Fields - Background Paper, OTA-BP-E-63 (Washington,
DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, May 1989): “...there
is now a very large volume of scientific findings based on
experiments at the cellular level and from studies with animals
and people which clearly establish that low frequency mag-
netic fields interact with, and produce changes in, biological
systems. While most of this work is of very high quality, the
results are complex. Current scientific understanding does
not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a single coherent
framework. Even more frustrating, it does not yet allow us to
draw definite conclusions about questions of possible risk or
to offer clear science-based advice on strategies to minimize
or avoid potential risks.”
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following
procedures.
1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.
2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the
operator.
3. Do not coil or drape cable around the body.
4. Keep welding Power Source and cables as far away
from body as practical.
