2. HEALTH & SAFETY
Safety Precautions
• Starting fluid (ether) is highly flammable, do not use or an explosion or
fire may result.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
• Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment appropriate to the job.
• Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause impairment or loss of
hearing.
• Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as earmuffs or earplugs
to protect against objectionable or uncomfortable loud noises.
• Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the operator.
Do not wear radio or music headphones while operating machine.
DISPOSE OF WASTE PROPERLY
• Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment and
ecology. Potentially harmful waste used with equipment include such
items as oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, and batteries.
• Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or
beverage containers that may mislead someone into drinking from
them.
• Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water
source.
• Air conditioning refrigerants escaping into the air can damage the
Earth’s atmosphere. Government regulations may require a certified
air conditioning service center to recover and recycle used air
conditioning refrigerants.
• Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste from your
local environmental or recycling center.
PREVENT BYPASS STARTING
• Avoid possible injury or death from engine runaway.
• Do not start engine by shorting across starter terminal. Engine will
start with PTO engaged if normal circuitry is bypassed.
• Start engine only from operator’s station with PTO disengaged or in
neutral.
