1.2 - Water Safety Guidelines

•  Keep all protective components in place - do not remove guards or 

shields from any part of the engine

•  Use caution near the engine - do not soak or expose the casing to a 

constant flow of water

•  Do not operate while wearing open-toed shoes

•  Do not over-extend while using the spray wand - use caution when 

standing on ladders

•  Do not direct the water stream at persons or pets - water sprays at a 

very high pressure and can result in skin damage

•  Wear appropriate eye protection - gloves are also recommended

•  Do not aim the water stream directly at delicate surfaces - if unsure of 

stream effect, spray indirectly and at a distance.

•  Do not direct spray at or near engine components.

•  Do not shift focus while water stream is on - keep attention on where the 

stream is aimed and ensure that water flow stops before looking away.

1.3 - Maintenance Safety

•  After any maintenance is performed, wash hands immediately using 

soap and clean water. Repeated exposure to lubricant may cause skin 

irritation.

•  Do not clean the filter element with flammable liquids like gasoline 

because explosion may occur.

•  Turn off the engine set before performing any maintenance, otherwise it 

can cause severe personal injury or death.

•  Allow the engine to cool down before performing any maintenance.

•  Always wear safety glasses when cleaning the engine with air.

•  Use rubber gloves when coming into contact with engine oil.

•  Always stop the engine before removing the oil filler cap.

•  Only qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of fuels, 

electricity, and machinery hazards should perform delicate maintenance 

procedures.
