■ The engine of this reversible plate compactor requires an
adequate free flow of cooling air.  NEVER  operate the
reversible plate compactor in any enclosed or narrow area
where free flow of the air is
restricted. If the air flow is restricted

liquids. When refueling, stop the engine
and allow it to cool. DO NOT 
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 reversible plate compactor in an
explosive atmosphere or near combustible materials. An
explosion or fire could result causing severe 
bodily harm or
even death.
■ Topping-off to filler port is dangerous, as it tends to spill fuel.
