accidentally started. To avoid such a misfortune, take. these precautions before starting to work on an engine:
Tag all electrical switches so that the electrical circuit is disrupted. Accidental contact with the starter button will

This will mean the governor is in the NO-FUEL position. The possibility of the engine firing by accident is
minimized.

1. Consider the hazards of the job and wear protective gear such as safety glasses, safety shoes, hard hat,
etc., to provide adequate protection.

lifted does not exceed the capacity of the lifting device.
