Alcohol
• Never operate the engine while you are under the influence of alcohol or
when you are ill or feel unwell as this results in accidents.
Exhaust Gas Poisoning
• Be sure to establish good ventilation in the engine room with windows,
vents, or other ventilation equipment. Check again during operation to be
sure that ventilation is good. Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon mon-
oxide and should not be inhaled.

• Do not touch the moving parts of the engine (propeller shaft, V-belt, PTO-
pulley, etc.) during operation or let your clothing get caught in them as this
can result in injury.

• Check before starting the engine to see that any tools or cloths used in
maintenance have been removed from the area.

• The whole engine is hot during operation and immediately after stopping.
The turbocharger, exhaust manifold, exhaust pipe, and engine are very hot.
Never touch these parts with your body or clothing.
