Keep away from fire, when working

If the engine is stored for 3 month or

Operation & Maintenance Manual.
Use volatile corrosion inhibitor and
rust preventive oil recommended by
us.

used, the internal engine parts may be rusted
due to insufficient anti-rust effect.
Use new (immediately after opened)
desiccant.
* If you use a product which has been unused for
a long time since its package was opened,
moisture absorbency may be weakened, and
may cause the internal engine parts and/or
sliding parts to rust.
After stopping the engine, spray
volatile corrosion inhibitor while
cranking the engine for at least 2
times.
* Otherwise, accumulated and hardened anti-
corrosive agent on the piston may block turning.
When handling volatile corrosion
inhibitor or rust-preventive oil, wear
protective gears such as protective
mask or protective glasses, and obey
the manufacturer's SDS.
* If such products are breathed in or comes in
contact with the skin, serious personal injury
may occur.
When working with grease, wear
suitable personal protective
equipment such as protective
eyeglasses, rubber gloves, working
clothes with long sleeves and long
trousers.

will cause irritations.
