Important Information
• To avoid potential hazard, accident prevention
activities must be planned methodically and con-
ducted continually by considering all aspects of
engine operation, maintenance and inspection.
Everyone including managers and supervisors
should actively participate, recognize one's role
and organize oneself and one's work to ensure a
safe environment.
• The foremost safety objective is to prevent acci-
dents which could result in injury or death, or
damage equipment.
• Observe all related federal/national and local
codes and regulations to reduce the possibility of
personal injury.
• The manufacturer cannot foresee all potential
danger of the engine, potential danger resulting
from human error and others, or danger caused
by a specific environment in which the engine is
used.
Since there are many actions that cannot be per-
formed or must not be performed, it is not possi-
ble to indicate every caution in this manual or on
warning labels. As such, it is extremely important
to follow directions in this manual and also to take
general safety measures when operating, main-
taining and inspecting the engine.
• This manual has been prepared for people whose
native language is English. When the engine is
used by individuals whose native language is not
English, the customer is requested to provide
thorough safety guidance to the operators. Also
add safety, caution and operating signs that
describe the original warning label statements in
the native language of the operators.
• The engine must be operated, maintained and
inspected only by qualified persons who have
thorough knowledge of engines and their danger
and also received danger avoidance training.
• To prevent occurrence of an accident, do not
attempt to carry out any operation other than
those described in this manual, or to use the
engine for any unapproved purpose.
• When the ownership of the engine is transferred,
be sure to provide this manual with the engine to
the new owner. Also inform the manufacturer of
the name and address of the new owner of the
engine.
