FOR ENGINE
powered equipment.

1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshooting and maintenance

work unless the maintenance work requires it to be running.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilated

areas or vent the engine exhaust fumes
outdoors.

____________________________________________________

1.c. Do  not add the fuel near an open flame

welding arc or when the engine is running.
Stop the engine and allow it to cool before
refueling to prevent spilled fuel from vapor-
izing on contact with hot engine parts and
igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling tank. If
fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start
engine until fumes have been eliminated.

____________________________________________________

1.d. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers

and devices in position and in good
repair.Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools
away from V-belts, gears, fans and all
other moving parts when starting, operating
or repairing equipment.

SAFETY

i

ARC WELDING CAN BE HAZARDOUS. PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS FROM POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. PACEMAKER WEARERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR DOCTOR BEFORE OPERATING.

For more detailed information it is strongly recommended that you purchase a copy of  "Safety in Welding and Cutting - ANSI
Standard Z49.1" and WTIA Technical Note 7. All WTIA publications and ANSI/AWS Standards are available from the
Welding Technology Institute of Australia, PO Box 6165 Silverwater NSW 2128. For copies of various Australian Standards
contact your local S.A.A. office.

BE SURE THAT ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES ARE
PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS.

WARNING

1.h. To  avoid scalding, do not remove the

radiator pressure cap when the engine is
hot.

1.e. In  some cases it may be necessary to remove safety

guards to perform required maintenance. Remove
guards only when necessary and replace them when the
maintenance requiring their removal is complete.
Always use the greatest care when working near moving
parts.

___________________________________________________

1.f.  Do not put your hands near the engine fan. Do not attempt to

override the governor or idler by pushing on the throttle control
rods while the engine is running.

___________________________________________________

1.g. To prevent accidentally starting gasoline engines while

turning the engine or welding generator during maintenance
work, disconnect the spark plug wires, distributor cap or
magneto wire as appropriate.
