sheet.
Store fuel only in approved containers, in well ventilated, unoccupied buildings and away from
naked flames. Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is running.

hydraulic elements). To prevent severe burns, do not touch these areas while the engine is
running - or immediately after it is turned off. Never operate the engine with heat shields or
guards removed.
ELECTRICAL SHOCKS

of electrical shocks.
