13.3 Remaining risk factors
Even if the machine is used as required it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual risk factors totally. The following hazards may arise in connection with the machine's construction and design:
Risk of burns:
Touching the mufflers, exhaust and other machine components which can be hot after prolonged continuous operation or when the engine is hot cause severe burns.
- Risk of fire and explosion:
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
NEVER refuel fuel or engine oil while the machine is in operation or is hot.
When refueling and at places where fuel is stored not smoke or allow open flames or sparks.
Do not overfill the fuel tank and avoid the spillage of gasoline during refueling. If fuel is spilled make sure the area is completely dry and cleaned before starting the engine.
Make sure that the filler cap is tightly closed again after refueling safely.
Chemical risks
Never use or refuel a gasoline or diesel engine in a closed area without adequate ventilation.
Carbon monoxide emissions from the internal drive units of the engine can cause in confined spaces through inhalation health effects and death. Therefore use the machine only in well-ventilated rooms or outdoors in operation.
Liquid fuels can cause serious damage on the skin and the environment.
- Risk of electric shock
Direct electrical contact may cause electric shock.
Never touch the unit with wet hands. Provide adequate grounding.
