Safety instructions regarding internal combustion engines
• Internal combustion engines present special hazards
during operation and fueling.
• Failure to follow the warnings and safety instructions
can cause serious injury or death.
• Keep the area around the exhaust system free of
flammable materials.
• Check the engine and fuel system for leaks (for
example, loose fuel lines). Do start or let the engine
run in case of leaks.
• Breathing the exhaust fumes causes death very
quickly.
• Engine exhaust contains gases you cannot see or
smell (for example, carbon monoxide and dioxide).
- Never operate the machine in enclosed premises or
areas (for example, in pits); if there is no suitable
ventilation (for example, exhaust-gas filters, suction
systems).
• Do not operate the vehicle in potentially explosive
areas.
• Do not touch the engine, exhaust system and cooling
system as long as the engine is still running or has not
cooled down yet.
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is
running or hot.

• The coolant is hot, under pressure and can cause
serious burns.
Bleeding the fuel system and refueling
• Do not bleed the fuel system or refuel near open
flames.
• Bleed the fuel system and refuel only in well-ventilated
areas (for example, due to vapors harmful to health,
explosion hazard).
• Wipe away fuel spills immediately (for example, due to
fire hazard, slipping hazard).
• Firmly close the fuel tank cap; replace a malfunc-
tioning fuel tank cap.
