SELF-PROTECTION

Keep all equipment safety guards, covers and devices in position and in good repair. Keep
hands, hair, clothing and tools away from V-belts, gears, fans and all other moving parts
when starting, operating or repairing equipment.

Do not put your hands near the engine fan. Do not attempt to override the governor or
idler by pushing on the throttle control rods while the engine is running.
DO NOT
add any fuel near an open-flame welding arc or when the
engine is running. Stop the engine and allow it to cool before refueling to prevent spilled fuel
from vaporizing on contact with hot engine parts and igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling
tank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start engine until fumes have been eliminated.
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or explosion.
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to explode.
Flying sparks from the welding arc, hot work piece, and hot equipment can cause fires and
burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion,
overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding

Remove fire hazards material from the welding area. If this is not possible, cover them to
prevent the welding sparks from starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent
areas. Avoid welding near hydraulic lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available.

Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site, special precautions should be
used to prevent hazardous situation.

When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode circuit is touching the work or
ground. Accidental contact can cause overheating and create a fire hazard.

Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the proper steps have been taken
to insure that such procedures will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances
