Carbon Monoxide Safety Information
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, tasteless, and
can cause death if inhaled. Failure to provide proper venting of CO, failure to properly maintain the engine, or failure to
properly train personnel of the dangers and warning signs of carbon monoxide exposure may result in
Serious Injury Or
Death to the operator and others in the area.
• Any equipment with the potential to produce carbon monoxide presents a signifi cant hazard when used indoors.
They must be used with great caution. Opening a door or window, or running an exhaust fan will not necessarily
supply adequate ventilation. Avoid inhaling exhaust fumes and never run the engine in a closed building or
confi ned area without proper ventilation.
