eeSAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When unloading the conveyor from a carrier, using a ramp, at-
tach a snubbing line to the frame of the machine in the tie point
rings to avoid the possibility of the machine “getting away” down
the ramp.
Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is running. Gasoline
spilled on a hot engine may vaporize and ignite.
When handling gasoline, always provide a metallic contact be-
tween the container and the tank. This will prevent a spark from
being generated as gasoline flows over the metallic surfaces.
Never run the conveyor without oil pressure showing on the
engine oil gage.
Make sure the choke valve is wide open when the engine is run-
ning at operating temperature.
Devices such as a governor to contro] engine speed, air cleaner,
and oil filter are provided to prolong the engine life. Failure to
maintain them in operating condition or to replace them when they
become inoperative will result in greatly decreased engine life.
When using the electrical starter to start the engine, if the
engine fails to start in 15 seconds allow a minute interval between
attempts.
When using the starting crank to start the engine, keep the
thumb on the same side of the handle as the fingers to avoid in-
jury should the engine kick. Never attempt to spin the crank.
When operating in extreme cold, do not stop the engine until it
has run long enough to warm the oil in the crankcase and vaporize
any moisture which may have condensed when the engine was last
stopped. The time necessary to warm the engine will depend upon
the air temperature.
If the engine overheats because of lack of coolant, allow it to
cool before filling the radiator; otherwise there is danger of
cracking the block. If it is necessary to fill the radiator before the
engine has cooled, be sure to fill it very slowly with the engine
running at fast idling speed.
