circumstances interfere with active or passive

implant manufacturer before operating this product.

Propane safety
WARNING:
instructions that follow before you use the
product.
• Make sure that the ignition key is in off position when
you do work on the propane tank.
• Only replace the propane tank when the ignition key
is in off position.
• Propane is flammable and the fumes are explosive.
Be careful to prevent injury, fire and explosion.
• Read all instructions on the product and on the
propane tank.
• Do not change the propane control equipment.
Changes to the propane control equipment can
cause dangerous levels of engine emissions.
• Do not breathe in the fuel fumes. The fuel fumes are
poisonous and can cause injury. Make sure that the
airflow is sufficient.
• Do not start the engine in an area without sufficient
airflow. Propane is heavier than air and can
accumulate in low areas. Not sufficient airflow
increases the risk of fire or explosion from sparks,
and the risk of injury from the fumes.
• Do not smoke near the product, the engine or the
propane tank.
• Do not put hot objects near the propane or the
engine.
• Keep the product away from sparks or flames.
• Examine the propane supply system for leaks
regularly. If there are leaks, do not start the engine
until the leaks are repaired.
• Do not keep propane tanks in a building. Propane
tanks must only be in a building during operation of
the product.
