WARNING LETHAL EXHAUST GAS NEVER RUN THE ENGINE IN A CLOSED BUILDING OR CONFINED AREA Exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, and can cause death if inhaled. BETCO, CORP.
CARBON MONOXIDE - MUST READ THIS! Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Symptoms Train your employees to know the warning signs of carbon monoxide poisoning. Mild carbon monoxide poisoning may cause any of the following: headache, drowsiness, faintness, poor coordination, nausea, and vomiting. Turn the engine off and immediately get to fresh air if you have any of these symptoms. Do not run the machine until it is given an emissions test and repairs made by a Betco Corporation distributor.
SAFETY lmportant Safety Information All LPG (Liquid Propane Gas) powered engines, including this engine, produce Carbon Monoxide (CO). It is a LETHAL POISON that is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and non-irritating gas. You must read “Danger: Lethal Exhaust Gas” information below. Keep hands, feet, and loose clothing away from all moving parts while the machine is in operation.
SAFETY continued from previous page x Use only as described in this manual. x Use only manufacturer’s recommended components. x Maintenance and repairs must be done by qualified personnel. x Only trained operators should be allowed to operate propane powered floor machines. x If the machine is not working properly, have it serviced by an authorized service center. x Install fuel cylinder in a well ventilated place. x Be aware of possible leaks of propane gas if odor is present.
TANK USE AND STORAGE We use the Worthington gas cylinders designed for vapor withdrawal. The fuel lock offs, regulators, and engines are also designed for vapor withdrawal. x Use the OPD (Overflow Protection Device) vapor withdrawal type cylinder. These style tanks have a triangle shaped valve handle. x Do not overfill - the best gauge is a scale - never allow tank to weigh over 36 pounds for an aluminum tank and 43 pounds for a steel tank. x Store tanks outside in a well-ventilated area.
BEFORE STARTING THE MACHINE Before the machine is operated, you first should read your Engine Operation Manual and your Owner’s Manual. x Your machine is shipped ready operation; however there is no fuel in the tank. When having the tank filled, you must make sure the tank is never over filled. o The best way to do this is to tell the filling station to weigh the tank full. On an aluminum tank, it should weigh no more than 36 pounds and on a steel tank no more than 43 pounds.
