18. CLEANING SOLVENT
CAUTION
Use approved cleaning solvents in a well ventilated area. Do not breathe fumes as some vapours can be fatal.
Keep away from open flames or sparks. Do not use gasoline or paint thinners or other highly volatile fluids for
cleaning. Always read and observe the <<CAUTION>> labels of containers. Do not destroy the labels on the
containers. Cleaning solvents can cause various kinds of skin irritations.
19. WELDING EQUIPMENT
CAUTION
Welding gas cylinders can explode if damaged. Cylinders must be stored in accordance with manufacturer's
specifications and applicable safety requirements.
When using acetylene, check valves should be installed between the regulators and hoses to prevent flashback
into the regulators and supply tanks. Flashback could cause the regulators and supply tanks to explode.
Oily and greasy materials must be kept away from oxygen valves, hoses, etc. Oxygen, if combined with such
materials, will cause and explosive reaction.
Always wear protective eyes shields when welding, cutting or watching welding operations. Protective clothing
must be worn. Do not weld or cut near combustible materials.
20. GROUNDING PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING
CAUTION
When using an electrical welder on an engine, clip the ground lead as close to the welding site as possible.
Putting the ground lead too far from the welding site may result in arching across the main bearings and fusing
these to the crankshaft.
21. ELECTRICAL TOOLS
CAUTION
Make sure that electrical tools are properly grounded. Wear proper eye protection. Do not work in wet or damp
conditions. Be sure that the tool is in good condition and safety guards are in position. An electric trouble light
must also be grounded. Do not carry electric power tools by the cord. Do not yank the cord when removing from
an outlet. Instead, grasp the plug to remove it from an outlet.
