DANGER
Poisonous exhaust gases
The exhaust gases of the internal combustion engine contain carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is an
invisible, odourless, tasteless gas which can lead to loss of consciousness and suffocation. It can quickly
accumulate in narrow spaces and stay there for hours, even after the engine has been turned off.
 Never operate machines with internal combustion engines in closed or confined spaces

If you feel dizzy or uneasy, turn off the engine immediately and go out into the fresh air. Visit a
doctor. You may suffer from carbon monoxide poisoning.
