Dangerous products - warnings
Used engine oil
Warning
Prolonged or repeated contact with used engine
oil may cause skin cancer. If exposed to used engine
oil on a daily basis, make it a rule to wash your hands
thoroughly with soap immediately after use. Keep
away from children.
Brake lining debris
Never attempt to clean the brake assembly using
compressed air or a dry brush.
Brake fluid
Warning
Avoid spilling brake fluid onto plastic, rubber or
painted parts of the motorcycle to avoid the risk of
damage. Protect these parts with a clean shop cloth
before proceeding to service the motorcycle. Keep
away from children.
Warning
The brake fluid used in the brake system is
corrosive. In the event of accidental contact with eyes
or skin, wash the affected area with abundant running
water.
Coolant
Engine coolant contains ethylene glycol, which may
ignite under particular conditions, producing invisible
flames. Although the flames from burning ethylene
glycol are not visible, they are still capable of causing
severe burns.
Warning
Take care not to spill engine coolant on the
exhaust system or engine parts. These parts may be
hot and ignite the coolant, which will subsequently
burn with invisible flames. Coolant (ethylene glycol)
is an irritant and is poisonous when ingested. Keep
away from children. Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The coolant will be scalding
hot and is under high pressure.
