SAFETY INFORMATION
HIGH PRESSURE FLUID RISK OF PUNCTURE
Work on the injection system must be carried out by
suitably trained staff wearing protection equipment.
Injuries caused by fluid penetration are highly toxic and
dangerous.
If an injury occurs, seek immediate medical attention.
Fuel is flammable and its vapours can ignite. Store fuel
only in approved containers, in well ventilated,
unoccupied buildings. Do not fill the fuel tank while the
engine is hot or running, since spilled fuel could ignite if it
comes in contact with hot parts or sparks from ignition.
Do not start the engine near spilled fuel. Never use fuel
as a cleaning agent.
Charge battery only in a well ventilated area. Keep
sparks, open flames, and other sources of ignition away
from the battery at all times. Batteries produce explosive
hydrogen gas while being charged.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Remove all
jewelry when servicing batteries. Before disconnecting
the negative (-) ground cable, make sure all switches are
OFF. If ON, a spark will occur at the ground cable
terminal which could cause an explosion.
High Pressure Fluids can puncture skin
and cause severe injury or death.
EXPLOSIVE FUEL
Explosive fuel can cause fires and severe
burns.
EXPLOSIVE GAS
Explosive Gas can cause fires and severe
acid burns.
