EXHAUST GASES AND FIRE PREVENTION
• Engine exhaust fumes can be very harmful if allowed to
accumulate. Be sure to run the engine in a well-ventilated area
where there are no people or livestock near by.
• The exhaust gas from the muffler is very hot. To prevent a fire,
do not expose dry grass, oil or any other combustible materials
to exhaust gas. Keep the engine and mufflers clean all the time.
• To avoid a fire, be alert for leaks of flammables from hoses and
lines. Be sure to check for leaks from hoses and pipes, such as
fuel and hydraulic by following the maintenance check list.
• To avoid a fire, do not short across power cables and wires.
Check to see that all power cables and wires are in good
condition. Keep all power connections clean. Bare wire or
frayed insulation can cause a dangerous electrical shock and
personal injury.
