Avoid fire and explosion hazards
Keep flames away from fuel, oil, grease and
antifreeze. Fuel is particularly flammable and
dangerous.
• When handling these combustible
materials, keep lit cigarettes, matches,
lighters and other flames or sources of
flames away.
• Do not smoke or permit open flames while
handling fuel or working on the fuel system.
• Do not leave the location while refilling with
fuel or oil.
• Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel
when the engine is running or still hot. Also,
do not spill the fuel on the hot surface of
the machine or the component of the
electric system.
• Clean up spilled fuel or oil immediately.
• Check for fuel, oil leak. Stop all leaks and
clean the machine before operating.
• When operating with grinder or welding,
move inflammables to a safe place.
• Do not cut or weld on pipes or tubes that
contain flammable fluids. Clean thoroughly
with nonflammable solvent before cutting
or welding.
• Remove all trash or debris from the
machine. Make sure that oily rags or other
flammable material are not stored on the
machine.
• Handle all solvents and dry chemicals
(foam type fire extinguisher) according to
procedures identified on manufacturer's
containers. Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Never use fuel for cleaning purposes.
Always use a nonflammable solvent.
• When handling the fuel, washing oil or
paint, open the door and windows to
ventilate thoroughly.
• Store all flammable fluids and materials in a
safe and well-ventilated place.
• The short circuit of the electric system may
cause the fire. Check for any loosened
connections or damage to the wires every
day. Retighten the loosened connector and
wire clamp. Fix or change the damaged
wire.
• Fire from the pipes:
Make sure that the clamps, guards and
cushions of the hoses and tubes are
securely fixed. If not, hoses or tubes may
be damaged due to vibration or contact
with other parts during operation. This can
cause the high-pressure oil to spurt out,
resulting in the fire or injury.
