DANGER
Running combustion engines in confined areas
CAN KILL IN MINUTES. Engine exhaust fumes
contain carbon-monoxide – a deadly gas that
you cannot smell or see.
NEVER run a combustion engine in confined
areas EVEN IF windows and doors are open.
ONLY run petrol engines OUTDOORS and away
from doors, windows and vents.
Do not operate the equipment in hazardous locations, such as
where there may be a risk of fire or explosions from flammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Do not operate the equipment in confined areas where exhaust
gases, smoke or fumes could reach dangerous concentrations.
Do not refuel a combustion engine while it is running, on or hot.
Never smoke while refuelling combustion engines or handling
flammable substances.
For generators, the electrical output is potentially lethal and must
only be connected to a fixed electrical installation by an
appropriately licensed person.
Be aware that the equipment may include hazardous
components, such as blades, hot surfaces and moving parts.
Handle any flammable substance with extreme caution.
