temperature is higher than +45°C (+113°F)
or lower than –15°C (+5°F).
• If operated at an ambient temperature
of higher than +45°C (+113°F), the
engine may overheat and cause the
engine oil to degrade.
• If operated at an ambient temperature
of lower than –15°C (+5°F), the parts
made of rubber such as gaskets may
get hardened to cause an early wear or
damage to the machine.
• If the machine is to be used outside the
ambient temperature range described
above, consult your sales or a service
dealer.
Wear appropriate clothing and
personal protective equipment
�
Do not wear loose clothing or any
