Safety<br />
2.1.6 Sufficient ventilation<br />
When operating in a pit, a tunnel or a trench make sure that the exhaust gases are fed to<br />
the outside Normally, the air is very calm in such places. Inhaling exhaust gases is extremely<br />
dangerous.<br />
Don't forget - exhaust gases can be deadly.<br />
2.1.7 Safe h<strong>and</strong>ling of fuel<br />
Exercise care in h<strong>and</strong>ling fuel: it is highly flammable. Never smoke while fuelling the machine<br />
<strong>and</strong> make sure that no open flame or sources of sparks are nearby. Shut down the<br />
motor while fuelling the machine. Only fuel outdoors. Prevent fires by making sure the<br />
machine is kept free of dirt <strong>and</strong> greasy residue. Always clean up spilled fuel.<br />
2.1.8 Emergency preparedness<br />
Be prepared for potential fires. Keep a first aid kit <strong>and</strong> fire extinguisher within reach at all<br />
times. Keep the emergency numbers for doctors, ambulance, hospital, <strong>and</strong> fire department<br />
available at the telephone at all times.<br />
2.1.9 Safe h<strong>and</strong>ling of starter fluids<br />
Starter fluids are highly flammable. When using starter fluid, keep away from sparks <strong>and</strong><br />
flames. Keep starter fluid away from batteries <strong>and</strong> cables. To prevent accidental discharge<br />
during storage of pressurised containers, do not touch the seal cap <strong>and</strong> store the container<br />
in a cool, safe place. Do not burn or puncture starter fluid containers.<br />
2.1.10 Noise protection<br />
A long-lasting, high noise level can result in hearing damage or deafness. When exposed<br />
to loud noises, wear proper heading protection (for example, earmuffs or earplugs).<br />
2.1.11 ROPS / FOPS<br />
Never modify the ROPS / FOPS protective equipment under any circumstances. Modifications<br />
such as welding, drilling or cutting may weaken the structure <strong>and</strong> reduce the<br />
protective effect. Damaged ROPS / FOPS protective equipment can not be repaired - it<br />
must be replaced.<br />
2.1.12 Compliant disposal of waste<br />
If disposal does not take place according to regulations, the environment <strong>and</strong> ecological<br />
systems can be harmed. Drain fluids into leak-proof <strong>and</strong> sealed containers. Do not use<br />
food or beverage containers from which someone could mistakenly drink. Never pour<br />
waste on the floor, down the drain or into a body of water. Information about the correct<br />
recycling or disposal method is available from the locally responsible environmental protection<br />
office or from the dealer.<br />
