With engine with automatic starting it is indispensable that none of the moving parts be
accessible. Warning signs "Unit starts automatically" are to be attache to the engine. Re-
gulation on this which may apply locally are to be satisfied.
When engine is running, lube oil pressure must build up at the oil pressure gauge. If not
switch off engine immediately.

gine this is liable to cause increased wear due to corrosion. Prolonged idling is harmful to
the environment.
