SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
HOT EXHAUST PRECAUTIONS
Servicing machine or attachments with
engine running can result in serious
personal injury. Avoid exposure and skin
contact with hot exhaust gases and
components.
Exhaust parts and streams become very hot during
operation. Exhaust gases and components reach
temperatures hot enough to burn people, ignite, or melt
common materials.
WORK IN VENTILATED AREA
Engine exhaust fumes can cause sickness
or death. If it is necessary to run an engine
in an enclosed area, remove the exhaust
fumes from the area with an exhaust pipe
extension.
If you do not have an exhaust pipe extension, open the
doors and get outside air into the area.

en the environment and ecology. Poten-
