S TEAM AND P RES SURIZED HOT
COOLANT can burn face, eyes, and
skin.
The coolant in the radiator can be very hot and under
pressure.
1. Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Allow engine to
cool.
2. Wear gloves and put a rag over cap area when removing cap.
3. Allow pressure to escape before completely removing cap.

SPARKS can cause BATTERY GASES
TO EXPLODE; BATTERY ACID can
burn eyes and skin.
Batteries contain acid and generate explosive gases.
1. Always wear a face shield when working on a battery.
2. Stop engine before disconnecting or connecting battery cables.
3. Do not allow tools to cause sparks when working on a battery.
4. Do not use welder to charge batteries or jump start vehicles.
5. Observe correct polarity (+ and –) on batteries.
MOVING PARTS can cause injury.
Moving parts, such as fans, rotors, and belts can cut
fingers and hands and catch loose clothing.
1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely
in place.
2. Stop engine before installing or connecting unit.
3. Have only qualified people remove guards or covers for mainte-
nance and troubleshooting as necessary.
4. To prevent accidental starting during servicing, disconnect nega-
tive (-) battery cable from battery.
5. Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from moving
parts.
6. Reinstall panels or guards and close doors when servicing is
finished and before starting engine.
ENGINE FUEL can cause fire or
explosion.
Engine fuel is highly flammable.
1. Stop engine before checking or adding fuel.
2. Do not add fuel while smoking or if unit is near any sparks or open
flames.
3. Allow engine to cool before fueling. If possible, check and add
fuel to cold engine before beginning job.
4. Do not overfill tank — allow room for fuel to expand.
5. Do not spill fuel. If fuel is spilled, clean up before starting engine.
NOTE: Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency Electric And Magnetic Fields
The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions Section of the U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Biological Effects
of Power Frequency Electric & Magnetic Fields — Background Paper, OTA-BP-E-63 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, May
1989): “... there is now a very large volume of scientific findings based on experiments at the cellular level and from studies with animals and
people which clearly establish that low frequency magnetic fields can interact with, and produce changes in, biological systems. While most of
this work is of very high quality, the results are complex. Current scientific understanding does not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a
single coherent framework. Even more frustrating, it does not yet allow us to draw definite conclusions about questions of possible risk or to
offer clear science-based advice on strategies to minimize or avoid potential risks.”
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following procedures:
About Pacemakers:
The above procedures are among those also normally recommended for pacemaker wearers. Consult your doctor for complete information.
1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.
2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.
3. Do not coil or drape cables around the body.
4. Keep welding power source and cables as far away from body as
practical.
WARNING: This product, when used for welding or cutting, produces fumes or gases which contain chemicals known to the State
of California to cause birth defects and, in some cases, cancer.
