and open flames.

liquids. When refueling, stop the engine and allow it to cool.

smoke around or near the machine. Fire or
explosion could result from fuel vapors, or if fuel is spilled on
a hot engine.
NEVER operate the vibratory roller in an explosive
atmosphere or near combustible
materials. An explosion or fire could

chock blocks if parking
vibratory roller on a grade.
NEVER touch the hot exhaust manifold,
muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to
cool before servicing engine or vibratory
roller.
The engine of this vibratory roller requires an adequate free
flow of cooling air. NEVER operate the vibratory roller in any
enclosed or narrow area where free flow of the air is restricted.
