Product liability
As referred to in the product liability laws, we are not
liable for damages that our product causes if:
• the product is incorrectly repaired.
• the product is repaired with parts that are not from
the manufacturer or not approved by the
manufacturer.
• the product has an accessory that is not from the
manufacturer or not approved by the manufacturer.

Safety

• Under no circumstances may the design of the
product be modified without the permission of the
manufacturer. Do not use a product that appears to
have been modified by others and always use
original accessories. Non-authorized modifications
and/or accessories can result in serious personal
injury or the death of the operator or others.
• Keep the product clean. Signs and decals must be
fully visible.
• Never allow children or other persons not trained in
the use of the product to use or service it.
• Do not let a person use the product unless you make
sure that they understand the contents of the
manual.
• Long term inhalation of the engine's exhaust fumes
can represent a health risk. When the engine is
running the exhaust contains chemicals such as
unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. The
content of the exhaust fumes is known to cause
respiratory problems, cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
Carbon monoxide is colorless and tasteless and is
always present in exhaust fumes. The onset of
carbon monoxide poisoning is distinguished by a
slight dizziness which may or may not be recognized
by the victim. A person may collapse and lapse into
unconsciousness with no warning if the
concentration of carbon monoxide is sufficiently high.
Since carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, its
presence can not be detected. Any time exhaust
odors are noticed, carbon monoxide is present.
