Engine Emissions and CO Safety The purpose of this document is to provide information on: • The potential effects of CO exposure; • The methods to reduce the risk of CO poisoning; • The methods used to determine the amount of potential exposure to CO produced by equipment. DANGER: All LPG (Liquid Propane Gas) powered engines, including this engine, produce Carbon Monoxide (CO).
Document Overview The information provided in the following overview has been condensed to provide the reader with a summary of the material presented. Potential Effects of CO Exposure • Work place/industry guidelines for CO exposure limits vary substantially from region to region (OSHA) Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for CO is 50 ppm, as an 8-hour time weighted average.

Engine Emissions - and CO Safety Potential Effects of CO Exposure • Work place/industry guidelines for CO exposure limits • Definition of CO effects Work place/industry guidelines for CO exposure limits Limits for permissible exposure to CO vary substantially from region to region. City, State, and Industry requirements should be consulted prior to use of any equipment.

Methods to Reduce the Risks of CO Poisoning • Air Exchange and CO Diffusion • Application Considerations (Burnishing versus Stripping) • Air Quality Monitoring • Room Size and Time Estimations • Maintenance of Equipment • Safety Equipment Available Air Exchange and CO Diffusion The most reliable method to prevent CO Poisoning is to ensure all the CO produced is vented outside.

Notice the CO concentration and the Effective Operating Zone with air exchange. The CO cloud is still concentrated in a small area. Note the "Dividing Zone" shown above; this is the line where airflow changes direction. In Model 2, air changes are cut in Y2 as little or no CO crosses the Dividing Zone to be exhausted.
Air Quality Monitoring Warning: Deployment of a monitor/detector is essential for the safe operation of any equipment that has the potential to produce CO. CO sensors/detectors became available on the mass market around 1978. The main differences between the technologies involved are battery or electric and Semiconductor or Biomimetic types.

OPERATOR SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING AVERTISSEMENT ADVERTENCIA DANGER means: Severe bodily injury or death can occur to you or other personnel if the DANGER statements found on this machine or in this Owner‘s Manual are ignored or are not adhered to. Read and observe all DANGER statements found in this Owner's Manual and on your machine.

WARNING: Long or continuous exposure to high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. Always wear hearing protection while using this machine. WARNING: Injury to the eyes and/or body can occur if protective clothing and/or equipment is not worn while using this machine.
Propane Safety Information Facts About LP Gas - Propane As a fuel, Propane gas is unmatched for both safety and dependability. It has been used as a domestic household fuel for over half a century, and for over thirty years as an internal combustion engine fuel. Propane is a highly flammable fuel that is contained under pressure as a liquid.

OVERFILLING PROPANE TANKS IS HAZARDOUS. The tank should NEVER be completely filled with liquid propane. 80% of the total tank volume is to be considered at ALL times as full. EXPANSION MUST BE ALLOWED FOR. Propane Buffer tanks are equipped with a fixed liquid level gauge which contacts the liquid level at 80% of container capacity, allowing 20% for expansion.
How to Operate the Machine Preparing The Machine For Use BEFORE using any type of powered equipment, proper safety dictates you should visually inspect it. 1. Adjust the HANDLE to a comfortable height and tighten the bolts. 2. BONNET FILTER - Make sure the bonnet air filter atop the engine is clean. It should be changed hourly and thoroughly cleaned before reuse.
Maintenance and Adjustments Emission Control Information To protect the environment in which we will live, the manufacturer has incorporated (1) crankcase emission and (2) exhaust emission control systems (EM) in compliance with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board. 1.
Recommended 25 Hour Maintenance Items >Change engine oil. >Check pad driver for loose parts. >Check belt for wear or slippage. >Check engine pulley for tightness. >Check wheel bolts. >Check engine mount bolts. >Check handle bolts. >Check for leakage of engine oil at the various seals. Recommended Oil Change Intervals Do not exceed the 25 hour oil change interval.

PROCEDURE FOR CHANGING MODES OF OPERATION FOR STRIPBUFF MACHINE Turn the machine over onto its right side (from the operator’s position) with the carburetor side UP on HONDA models. Remove the pad holder or brush by spinning it off of the shaft. You may have to loosen the belt tensioner by loosening the tensioner bolt about ¾...
Troubleshooting When troubles occur, be sure to check the simple causes which at first, may seem too obvious to be considered. For example, a starting problem could be caused by fuel starvation due to an empty propane cylinder or an unopened service valve.
