Potential hazards associated with the operation of a
MT-76D2 Tamping Rammer
will be referenced with Hazard
Symbols which appear throughout this manual, and will be
referenced in conjunction with Safety Message Alert
Symbols.
Engine exhaust gases contain
poisonous carbon monoxide. This gas
is colorless and odorless, and can
cause death if inhaled. NEVER operate
this equipment in a confined area or
enclosed structure that does not provide
ample free flow air.
Fuel is extremely flammable, and its
vapors can cause an explosion if ignited.
DO NOT start the engine near spilled
fuel or combustible fluids.
DO NOT fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or
hot. DO NOT overfill tank, since spilled fuel could ignite if
it comes into contact with hot engine parts or sparks from
the ignition system. Store fuel in approved containers, in
well-ventilated areas and away from sparks and flames.
Engine components can generate extreme
heat. To prevent burns, DO NOT touch
these areas while the engine is running or
immediately after operations. Never
operate the engine with heat shields or heat
guards removed.
ALWAYS wear approved
respiratory
protection when required.
