Safety Instructions And Warnings About Your O.s. Engine 2 - O.S. engine MAX-21XM Owner's Instruction Manual

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND
WARNINGS ABOUT YOUR
O.S. ENGINE
Remember that your engine is not a " toy ", but a highly
efficient internal-combustion machine whose power is
capable of harming you, or others, if it is misused.
As owner, you, alone, are responsible for the safe
operation of your engine, so act with discretion and care at
all times.
If at some future date, your O.S. engine is acquired by
another person, we would respectfully request that these
instructions are also passed on to its new owner.
The advice which follows is grouped under two headings
according to the degree of damage or danger which
might arise through misuse or neglect.
WARNINGS
These cover events which might involve serious ( in
extreme circumstances, even fatal ) injury.
These cover the many other possibilities, generally less
obvious sources of danger, but which, under certain
circumstances, may also cause damage or injury.
NOTES
WARNINGS
• Never touch, or allow any object to come
into contact with, the rotating propeller.
•
Model engine fuel is poisonous. Do not
allow it to come into contact with the eyes
or mouth. Always store it in a clearly
marked container and out of the reach
of children.
• Model engine fuel is also highly flammable.
Keep it away from an open flame,
excessive heat, sources of sparks, or
anything else which might ignite it.
Do not smoke or allow anyone else to
smoke, near to it.
•
Never operate your engine in an enclosed space.
Model engines, like automobile engines, exhaust
deadly carbon-monoxide. Run your engine only in an
open area.
• Model engines generate considerable
heat. Do not touch any part of your engine
until it has cooled. Contact with the
muffler(silencer), cylinder head or exhaust
header pipe, in particular, may result in a
serious burn.
