MOVE AND OPERATE MACHINE SAFELY

Bystanders can be run over.
Take extra care not to run over bystanders. Con-
firm the location of bystanders before moving,
swinging, or operating the machine.
Always keep the travel alarm and horn in working
condition (if equipped). It warns people when the
machine starts to move.
Use a signal person when moving, swinging, or
operating the machine in congested areas. Coor-
dinate hand signals before starting the machine.
Use appropriate illumination. Check that all lights
are operable before operating the machine. If any
faulty illumination is present, immediately repair it.

HANDLE STARTING AIDS SAFELY

Starting fluid:
Starting fluid is highly flammable.
Keep all sparks and flame away when using it.
Keep starting fluid well away from batteries and
cables.
Remove container from machine if engine does
not need starting fluid.
To prevent accidental discharge when storing a
pressurized container, keep the cap on the con-
tainer, and store it in a cool, well-protected loca-
tion.
Do not incinerate or puncture a starting fluid con-
tainer.
