NOTICE

State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources Codes specify that in cer-

tain locations spark arresters be used on internal combustion engines that

use hydrocarbon fuels. A spark arrester is a device designed to prevent acci-

dental discharge of sparks or flames from the engine exhaust. Spark ar-

resters are qualified and rated by the United States Forest Service for this

purpose. In order to comply with local laws regarding spark arresters, consult

the engine distributor or the local Health and Safety Administrator.

Manufacturer’s approval

This manual contains references to approved parts, attachments, and modi-

fications. The following definitions apply:

• Approved parts or attachments are those either manufactured or pro-

vided by Wacker Neuson.

• Approved modifications are those performed by an authorized Wacker

Neuson service center according to written instructions published by

Wacker Neuson.

• Unapproved parts, attachments, and modifications are those that do not

meet the approved criteria.

Unapproved parts, attachments, or modifications may have the following

consequences:

• Serious injury hazards to the operator and persons in the work area

Application area

Be aware of the application area.

• Keep unauthorized personnel, children, and pets away from the ma-

chine.

• Remain aware of changing positions and the movement of other equip-

ment and personnel in the application area/job site.

• Identify whether special hazards exist in the application area, such as

toxic gases or unstable ground conditions, and take appropriate action to

eliminate the special hazards before using the machine.

• Do not operate the machine in areas that contain flammable objects, fu-

els, or products that produce flammable vapors.

• Keep the area around the muffler free of debris such as leaves, paper,

cartons, etc. A hot muffler could ignite the debris and start a fire.

Safety devices, controls, and attachments

Only operate the machine when:

• All safety devices and guards are in place and in working order.

• All controls operate correctly.

• The machine is set up correctly according to the instructions in the Oper-

ator’s Manual.

• The machine is clean.

• The machine’s labels are legible.

To ensure safe operation of the machine:

• Do not operate the machine if any safety devices or guards are missing

or inoperative.

• Do not modify or defeat the safety devices.

• Only use accessories or attachments that are approved by Wacker Neu-

son.

• Do not start the machine unless all cleanout doors are secured in place.

• Do not attempt to start the machine when excess oil has accumulated,

when machine is full of vapor, or when the combustion chamber is very

hot.

• Do not tamper with the unit or controls—call your service personnel.

• Should overheating occur or the gas supply fails to shut off, do not turn

off or disconnect the electrical supply to the pump. Instead, shut off the

gas supply at a location external to the machine.

• Do not use this heat exchanger if any part has been under water. Imme-

diately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heat exchanger

and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which

has been under water.

4.3 Safety Guidelines for Lifting the Machine

When lifting the machine:

• Make sure slings, chains, hooks, ramps, jacks, forklifts, cranes, hoists,

and any other type of lifting device used is attached securely and has

enough weightbearing capacity to lift or hold the machine safely. For ma-

chine weight, see Machine on page 116.

• Remain aware of the location of other people when lifting the machine.

• Only use the lifting points and tie-downs described in the Operator’s

Manual.

• Make sure the transporting vehicle has sufficient load capacity and plat-

form size to safely transport the machine.

To reduce the possibility of injury:

• Do not stand under the machine while it is being lifted or moved.

• Do not get onto the machine while it is being lifted or moved.

DANGER

Carbon monoxide hazard

Using this machine indoors can kill you in minutes. Exhaust gas contains

carbon monoxide (CO). This is a deadly poison you cannot see or smell. If

you can smell the exhaust, you are breathing CO. Even if you cannot smell

the exhaust, you could still be breathing CO.

► Never operate the machine inside an enclosed area, such as a home,

tunnel, or garage unless it is vented properly

► Only use the machine outside and far away from windows, doors, and

vents. These openings can pull in exhaust gas.

► Always use a battery-powered or battery-backup CO alarm in nearby

structures. Even when you use the machine correctly, CO may leak into

nearby structures.

► If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak after the machine has been run-

ning, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See a doctor. You could have

carbon monoxide poisoning.

When using the machine:

• Do not fill or drain the fuel tank near an open flame, while smoking, or

while the machine is running.

• Do not smoke when refueling the machine.

• Do not smoke when connecting natural gas or LP.

• Do not attempt to start the burner when excess oil has accumulated,

when the unit is full of vapors, or when the combustion chamber is very

hot.

Note: Some machines may not be capable of supporting natural gas or LP.

Please see the burner manufacturer’s literature for more information.

4.5 Safety Guidelines for Operating Generators

DANGER

Carbon monoxide hazard

Using a generator indoors can kill you in minutes. Generator exhaust con-

tains carbon monoxide (CO). This is a poison you cannot see or smell. If you

can smell the generator exhaust, you are breathing CO. But even if you can-

not smell the exhaust, you could still be breathing CO.
