Safety Instructions And Warnings About Your O.s. Engine - O.S. engine max-12TZ series 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 applies basically to ALL MODEL ENGINES and 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
extreme circumstances, even
fatal) injury.
• Model engine fuel is poi-
sonous. Do not allow it to
come into contact with the
eyes or mouth. Always store
it in a clearly marked con-
tainer 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.
These cover
possibilities, generally less obvious
(in
sources of danger, but which, under
certain circumstances, may also
cause damage or injury.

WARNINGS

Never operate your engine in an en-
closed 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.
