Safety while working

Safety while working
To prevent and accident or injury and to
ensure quality service, follow the safety proce-
dures provided below.

Fire prevention

Gasoline is highly flammable.
Keep gasoline and all flammable products
away from heat, sparks, and open flames.

Ventilation

Gasoline vapor and exhaust gas are heavier
than air and extremely poisonous. If inhaled in
large quantities, they may cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a short time.
When test running an engine indoors (e.g., in a
water tank), be sure to do so where adequate
ventilation can be maintained.

Self-protection

Protect your eyes by wearing safety glasses or
safety goggles during all operation involving
drilling and grinding, or when using an air com-
pressor.
Protect your hands and feet by wearing protec-
tive gloves and safety shoes when necessary.

Parts, lubricants, and sealants

Use only genuine Yamaha parts, lubricants,
and sealants, or those recommended by
Yamaha, when servicing or repairing the
watercraft.
Under normal conditions, the lubricants men-
tioned in this manual should not harm or be
hazardous to your skin. However, you should
follow these precautions to minimize any risk
when working with lubricants.
1. Avoid contact with skin. Do not, for exam-
ple, place a soiled rag in your pocket.
2. Wash hands and any other part of the
body thoroughly with soap and hot water
after contact with a lubricant or lubricant
soiled clothing has been made.
3. Change and wash clothing as soon as
possible if soiled with lubricants.
4. To protect your skin, apply a protective
cream to your hands before working on the
watercraft.
