Handle Starting Fluid Safely
Starting fluid is highly flammable.
Keep all sparks and flame away when using it. Keep
starting fluid away from batteries and cables.
To prevent accidental discharge when storing the
pressurized can, keep the cap on the container, and store
in a cool, protected location.
Do not incinerate or puncture a starting fluid container.
Do not use starting fluid on an engine equipped with glow
plugs or an air intake heater.

In Case of Fire
CAUTION: Avoid personal injury.
Stop machine immediately at the first sign of fire. Fire
may be identified by the smell of smoke or sight of flames.
Because fire grows and spreads rapidly, get off the
machine immediately and move safely away from the fire.
Do not return to the machine! The number one priority
is safety.
Call the fire department. A portable fire extinguisher can
put out a small fire or contain it until the fire department
arrives; but portable extinguishers have limitations.
Always put the safety of the operator and bystanders first.
If attempting to extinguish a fire, keep your back to the
wind with an unobstructed escape path so you can move
away quickly if the fire cannot be extinguished.
Read the fire extinguisher instructions and become familiar
with their location, parts, and operation before a fire starts.
Local fire departments or fire equipment distributors may
offer fire extinguisher training and recommendations.
If your extinguisher does not have instructions, follow
these general guidelines:

1. Pull the pin. Hold the extinguisher with the nozzle
pointing away from you, and release the locking
mechanism.
2. Aim low. Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire.
3. Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly.
4. Sweep the nozzle from side-to-side.
