Evacuating in Case of Fire

 If a fire breaks out, evacuate the machine in the following
way:
 Stop the engine by turning the key switch to the OFF
position if there is time.
 Use a fire extinguisher if there is time.
 Exit the machine.
 In an emergency, if the cab door or front window can not
be opened, break the front or rear window panes with
the emergency evacuation hammer to escape from the
cab. Refer to the explanation pages on the Emergency
Evacuation Method.

Beware of Exhaust Fumes

 Prevent asphyxiation. Engine exhaust fumes can cause
sickness or death.
 If you must operate in a building, be sure there is
adequate ventilation. Either use an exhaust pipe
extension to remove the exhaust fumes or open doors
and windows to bring enough outside air into the area.
 PM (Particulate Matter) combustion may generate white
smoke during muffler filter regeneration. Do not attempt
to do muffler filter manual regeneration in a badly
ventilated indoors.
