CALIFORNIA
Proposition 65 Warning
Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
• Keep the area around muffler pipe free of flammable materials.
• Check the fuel lines and the fuel tank for leaks and cracks before starting the engine.
Do not run the machine if fuel leaks are present or the fuel lines are loose.
• Engine exhaust can kill you in minutes! Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide.
This is a poison you cannot see or smell. Never run the machine indoors or in an
enclosed area such as a deep trench unless adequate ventilation, through such items
as exhaust fans or hoses, is provided.
• Do not smoke while operating the machine.
• Do not run the engine near open flames.
• Do not touch the engine or muffler while the engine is running or immediately after it
has been turned off.
• Do not operate a machine when its fuel cap is loose or missing.
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is running or hot. The radiator fluid is
hot and under pressure, and may cause severe burns!
