Reminders; Operational Safety - Eagle Tracker 3000 Operator's Manual

• Liquefied propane will expand 270 times to
flammable vapor - avoid needless release
of liquefied propane and using overfilled
cylinders.
• Propane is heavier than air – if it leaks it will
spread in low places like under doors where it
may be ignited and cause damage.
• Only use 4E240 cylinders that are approved
by the DOT - never use cylinders designed for
other services like barbecues.
• The low boiling point of propane can cause
serious frostbite – always wear frost proof
• Operator must have completed certification
training before using machine.
• Proper maintenance is the responsibility of the
operator before use of machine. This includes:
checking the oil level, checking and cleaning
air and dust filters, keeping machine clean and
lubricated, inspect for damaged, worn or loose
parts, clean carburetor air filters (and as needed
during operation), clean entire machine after
each use.
• Sweep floor and check for items protruding out
of the floor surface before operating machine.
• Do not start engine with the transport wheel
attached, if applicable.
• Do not allow the machine to run unattended or
be tilted back while it is running.
• Exhaust parts are extremely HOT. Be careful
not to allow them to come into contact with
anything or anyone.
• Do not attempt to change pads or abrasives
while the engine is running.
