INTRODUCTION
A FEW WORDS ABOUT SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important. And using this engine
safely is an important responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about safety, we have provided
operating procedures and other information on labels and in this manual. This
information alerts you to potential hazards that could hurt you or others.
Of course, it is not practical or possible to warn you about all the hazards
associated with operating or maintaining an engine. You must use your own
good judgment.
You will find important safety information in a variety of forms, including:
l
Safety Labels - on the engine.
.
Safety Messages - preceded by a safety alert symbol A and one of three
signal words, DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These signal words mean:

instructions.
