DANGER
Risk of poisoning!
As soon as the engine is running, this product gene-
rates toxic exhaust fumes containing chemicals, such as
unburned hydrocarbons (including benzene) and carbon
monoxide, that are known to cause respiratory problems,
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some
of the gases (e.g. carbon monoxide) may be colourless
and odourless. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury/
illness from inhaling toxic fumes, never run the machine
indoors or in poorly ventilated locations. If exhaust fumes
become concentrated due to insufficient ventilation, clear
obstructions from work area to permit proper ventilation
before proceeding and/or take frequent breaks to allow
fumes to dissipate before they become concentrated. In-
halation of certain dust, especially organic duxts can cause
susceptible persons to have an allergic reaction. Sub-
stantial or repeated inhalation of dust and other airborne
contaminants, in particular those with a smaller particle
size, may cause respiratory or other illnesses. Control dust
at the source where possible.
