Starter gas
WARNING!
Never use starter gas or similar agents to help
start the engine. This can cause an explosion in
the intake manifold and possible injury.
Running
WARNING!
The engine must not be run in environments
where there is a risk of explosion, as all of the
electrical or mechanical components can gener-
ate sparks.
Approaching a running engine always poses a
safety risk. Parts of the body, clothes or dropped
tools can get caught in rotating parts such as the
fan and cause injury. For personal safety all ro-
tating parts and hot surfaces must be fitted with
guards.
Safety precautions for handling ma-
terials
Fuel and lubricating oil
WARNING!
All fuels and lubricants as well as many chemi-
cals are flammable. Always follow the instruc-
tions on the relevant packaging.
The work must be carried out on a cold engine.
Fuel leaks and spillage on hot surfaces can cause
fire.
Store used rags and other flammable materials
safely so as to avoid spontaneous combustion.
