8. CAUTIONS AGAINST BURNS & BATTERY EXPLOSION
A
To avoid burns, be cautious of hot components, e.g. muffler, muffler
cover, radiator, hoses, engine body, coolants, engine oil, etc. during
operation and after the engine has been shut off.
A
DO NOT remove the radiator cap while the engine is running or
immediately after stopping. Otherwise hot water will spout out from the
radiator. Wait until the radiator is completely cool to the touch before
removing the cap. Wear safety goggles.
A
Be sure to close the coolant drain valve, secure the pressure cap, and
fasten the pipe band before operating. If these parts are taken off, or
loosened, it will result in serious personal injury.
A
The battery presents an explosive hazard. When the battery is being
charged, hydrogen and oxygen gases are extremely explosive.
A
DO NOT use or charge the battery if its fluid level is below the LOWER
mark.
Otherwise, the component parts may deteriorate earlier than expected,
which may shorten the service life or cause an explosion. Immediately,
add distilled water until the fluid level is between the UPPER and
LOWER marks.
A
Keep sparks and open flames away from the battery, especially during
charging. DO NOT strike a match near the battery.
A
DO NOT check the battery charge by placing a metal object across the
terminals. Use a voltmeter or hydrometer.
A
DO NOT charge a frozen battery. There is a risk of explosion. When
frozen, warm the battery up to at least 16 C (61 F).
9. KEEP HANDS AND BODY AWAY FROM ROTATING PARTS
A
Be sure to stop the engine before checking or adjusting the belt tension
and cooling fan.
A
Keep your hands and body away from rotating parts, such as the cooling
fan, V-belt, fan drive V-belt, pulley or flywheel. Contact with rotating
parts can cause severe personal injury.
A
DO NOT run the engine without safety guards. Install safety guards
securely before operation.
