person should start the engine or touch
controls during inspection or maintenance.

Stop the engine and remove the key
before performing maintenance.

Use the correct tools
Do not use damaged or weakened tools or
tools designed for other purposes. Use tools
suited for the operation at hand.
Replace important safety parts
periodically

an irregularity is found, even if it is before
the normal time for replacement.
Refer to the section titled “Important Parts”
for further details.
Anti-explosive lighting

lights when inspecting fuel, oil, coolant,
battery fluid, etc. If lighting that is not anti-
explosive should break, the substance could
ignite, resulting in serious injury or death.
Do not allow unauthorized
personnel in the work area
Do not allow unauthorized personnel in the
work area. Chips or other debris can fly off
machine parts when grinding, welding or
using a hammer.
