2. Safety Information
This manual contains DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE
callouts which must be followed to reduce the possibility of personal
injury, damage to the equipment, or improper service.
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential
personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this
symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

2.1 Laws Pertaining to Spark Arresters
Notice: State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources Codes
specify that in certain locations spark arresters be used on internal
combustion engines that use hydrocarbon fuels. A spark arrester is a
device designed to prevent accidental discharge of sparks or flames
from the engine exhaust. Spark arresters 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.

2.2 Operating Safety
Familiarity and proper training are required for the safe operation of
equipment! Equipment operated improperly or by untrained personnel
can be dangerous! Read the operating instructions contained in both
this manual and the engine manual and familiarize yourself with the
location and proper use of all controls. Inexperienced operators should
receive instruction from someone familiar with the equipment before
being allowed to operate the machine.
2.2.1 NEVER allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper
training. People operating this equipment must be familiar with the
risks and hazards associated with it.
2.2.2 NEVER touch the engine or muffler while the engine is on or
immediately after it has been turned off. These areas get hot and may
cause burns.
2.2.3 NEVER use accessories or attachments that are not recommended by
Wacker. Damage to equipment and injury to the user may result.
2.2.4 NEVER operate the machine with the belt guard missing. Exposed
drive belt and pulleys create potentially dangerous hazards that can
cause serious injuries.
2.2.5 NEVER leave machine running unattended.
2.2.6 ALWAYS be sure operator is familiar with proper safety precautions
and operation techniques before using machine.
2.2.7 ALWAYS wear protective clothing appropriate to the job site when
operating equipment.
2.2.8 ALWAYS wear hearing protection when operating equipment.
2.2.9 ALWAYS close fuel valve on engines equipped with one when
machine is not being operated.
2.2.10 ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being used.
Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of
children.
2.2.11 ALWAYS operate machine with all safety devices and guards in place
and in working order. DO NOT modify or defeat safety devices. DO
NOT operate machine if any safety devices or guards are missing or
inoperative.
2.2.12 ALWAYS read, understand, and follow procedures in Operator's
Manual before attempting to operate equipment.

2.3 Operator Safety while using Internal Combustion Engines
Internal combustion engines present special hazards during operation
and fueling! Read and follow warning instructions in engine owner's
manual and safety guidelines below. Failure to follow warnings and
safety guidelines could result in severe injury or death.
2.3.1 DO NOT run machine indoors or in an enclosed area such as a deep
trench unless adequate ventilation, through such items as exhaust
fans or hoses, is provided. Exhaust gas from the engine contains
poisonous carbon monoxide gas; exposure to carbon monoxide can
cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.
2.3.2 DO NOT smoke while operating machine.
2.3.3 DO NOT smoke when refueling engine.
2.3.4 DO NOT refuel hot or running engine.
2.3.5 DO NOT refuel engine near open flame.
2.3.6 DO NOT spill fuel when refueling engine.
2.3.7 DO NOT run engine near open flames.
2.3.8 ALWAYS refill fuel tank in well-ventilated area.
2.3.9 ALWAYS replace fuel tank cap after refueling.
2.3.10 ALWAYS check fuel lines and fuel tank for leaks and cracks before
starting engine. Do not run machine if fuel leaks are present or fuel
lines are loose.

2.4 Service Safety
Poorly maintained equipment can become a safety hazard! In order
for the equipment to operate safely and properly over a long period of
time, periodic maintenance and occasional repairs are necessary.
2.4.1 DO NOT attempt to clean or service machine while it is running.
Rotating parts can cause severe injury.
2.4.2 DO NOT crank a flooded engine with the spark plug removed on
gasoline-powered engines. Fuel trapped in the cylinder will squirt out
the spark plug opening.
2.4.3 DO NOT test for spark on gasoline-powered engines, if engine is
flooded or the smell of gasoline is present. A stray spark could ignite
fumes.
2.4.4 DO NOT use gasoline or other types of fuels or flammable solvents to
clean parts, especially in enclosed areas. Fumes from fuels and
solvents can become explosive.
2.4.5 ALWAYS keep area around muffler free of debris such as leaves,
paper, cartons, etc. A hot muffler could ignite them, starting a fire.
2.4.6 ALWAYS replace worn or damaged components with spare parts
designed and recommended by Wacker.
2.4.7 ALWAYS disconnect spark plug on machines equipped with gasoline
engines, before servicing, to avoid accidental start-up.
2.4.8 ALWAYS keep machine clean and labels legible. Replace all missing
and hard-to-read labels. Labels provide important operating
instructions and warn of dangers and hazards.
