ENGINEEXHAUST
The carbon monoxide in exhaust fumes can be hazard-
ous. It is important for you and your passengers to be
aware of the potential safety hazard created by exhaust
fumes. Familiarize yourself with the symptoms of indi-
viduals overcome by carbon monoxide, and most impor-
tantly, ways you can protect yourself and your guests.
DONOTattempttoserviceanyenginewithout
being totally familiar with the safe and proper
service procedures. Do not attempt to main-
tain or adjust an engine while it is running.
Certain moving parts are exposed and failing
to shut off the engine can result in serious
injury or death.
DO NOT inhale exhaust fumes! Exhaust con-
tains carbon monoxide which is colorless and
odorless. Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas
that is potentially lethal.
