SCREED SAFETY DANGER Engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can cause death if inhaled. The engine of this equipment requires an adequate free flow of cooling air. NEVER operate this equipment in any enclosed or narrow area where free flow of the air is restricted. If the air flow is restricted it will cause injury to people and property and serious damage to the equipment or engine. NEVER operate the equipment in an explosive atmosphere or near combustible materials. An explosion or fi re could result causing severe bodily harm or even death WARNING If applicable, NEVER use your hand to fi nd hydraulic leaks. Use a piece of wood or cardboard. Hydraulic fluid injected into the skin must be treated by a knowledgeable physician immediately or severe injury or death can occur. ALWAYS keep clear of rotating or moving parts while operating the screed. NEVER disconnect any emergency or safety devices. These devices are intended for operator safety. Disconnection of these devices can cause severe injury, bodily harm or even death. Disconnection of any of these devices will void all warranties. CAUTION NEVER allow passengers or riders on the screed during operation. NEVER lubricate components or attempt service on a running machine. NOTICE ALWAYS keep the machine in proper running condition. Fix damage to machine and replace any broken parts immediately. ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel. ENGINE SAFETY WARNING DO NOT place hands or fingers inside engine compartment when engine is running. NEVER operate the engine with heat shields or guards removed. Keep fingers, hands hair and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot. The possibility of hot oil exists which could cause severe scalding. CAUTION NEVER touch the hot exhaust manifold, muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool before servicing equipment. NOTICE NEVER run engine without an air filter or with a dirty air filter. Severe engine damage may occur. Service air filter frequently to prevent engine malfunction. NEVER tamper with the factory settings of the engine or engine governor. Damage to the engine or equipment can result if operating in speed ranges above the maximum allowable FUEL SAFETY DANGER DO NOT start the engine near spilled fuel or combustible fluids. Fuel is extremely flammable and its vapors can cause an explosion if ignited. ALWAYS refuel in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks and open flames. ALWAYS use extreme caution when working with flammable liquids. 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 appropriate containers, in well-ventilated areas and away from sparks and flames. NEVER use fuel as a cleaning agent. DO NOT smoke around or near the equipment. Fire or explosion could result from fuel vapors or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine. TRANSPORTING SAFETY CAUTION NEVER allow any person or animal to stand underneath the equipment while lifting. NEVER lift or transport screed with personnel standing on the screed. Use proper heavy lifting procedures when lifting the screed. NOTICE Machine can be transported on flatbed truck of proper weight capacity. The easiest way to lift the screed is to attach lifting hooks to the screed frame. Lifting hooks should be placed at equal distances from each end of the screed. A strap or chain can be attached to these hooks, allowing a forklift or crane to lift the screed up onto and off of a slab of concrete. The strap or chain should have a minimum of 2,000 pounds (1,000 kg) lifting capacity and the lifting device must be capable of lifting at least this amount. Always make sure crane or lifting device has been properly secured to the lifting hooks on the equipment. ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting. NEVER lift the equipment while the engine is running. Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel cock to prevent fuel from spilling. Use adequate lifting cable (wire or rope) of sufficient strength. DO NOT lift machine to unnecessary heights. ALWAYS tie down equipment during transport by securing the equipment with rope. TOWING SAFETY CAUTION Check with your local county or state safety towing regulations, in addition to meeting Department of Transportation (DOT) Safety Towing Regulations, before towing your screed. In order to reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the screed on public roads, ALWAYS make sure the trailer that supports the screed and the towing vehicle are mechanically sound and in good operating condition. ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle are rated equal to, or greater than the trailer “gross vehicle weight rating.” ALWAYS inspect the hitch and coupling for wear. NEVER tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains, etc. Check the tire air pressure on both towing vehicle and trailer. Trailer tires should be inflated to 50 psi cold. Also check the tire tread wear on both vehicles. ALWAYS make sure the trailer is equipped with a safety chain. ALWAYS properly attach trailer’s safety chains to towing vehicle. ALWAYS make sure the vehicle and trailer directional, backup, brake and trailer lights are connected and working properly. DOT Requirements include the following: • Connect and test electric brake operation. • Secure portable power cables in cable tray with tie wraps. The maximum speed for highway towing is 55 MPH unless posted otherwise. Recommended off-road towing is not to exceed 15 MPH or less depending on type of terrain. Avoid sudden stops and starts. This can cause skidding, or jack-knifing. Smooth, gradual starts and stops will improve towing. Avoid sharp turns to prevent rolling. Trailer should be adjusted to a level position at all times when towing. Raise and lock trailer wheel stand in up position when towing. Place chock blocks underneath wheel to prevent rolling while parked. Place support blocks underneath the trailer’s bumper to prevent tipping while parked. Use the trailer’s swivel jack to adjust the trailer height to a level position while parked. ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY/DECOMMISSIONING NOTICE Decommissioning is a controlled process used to safely retire a piece of equipment that is no longer serviceable. If the equipment poses an unacceptable and unrepairable safety risk due to wear or damage or is no longer cost effective to maintain (beyond life-cycle reliability) and is to be decommissioned (demolition and dismantlement),be sure to follow rules below DO NOT pour waste or oil directly onto the ground, down a drain or into any water source. Contact your country's Department of Public Works or recycling agency in your area and arrange for proper disposal of any electrical components, waste or oil associated with this equipment. When the life cycle of this equipment is over, it is recommended that the screed frame and all other metal parts be sent to a recycling center. Metal recycling involves the collection of metal from discarded products and its transformation into raw materials to use in manufacturing a new product. Recyclers and manufacturers alike promote the process of recycling metal. Using a metal recycling center promotes energy cost savings. NOTICE The gasoline engine used in this equipment has been designed to reduce harmful levels of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) contained in diesel exhaust emissions. This engine has been certified to meet US EPA Evaporative emissions requirements in the installed configuration. Attempting to modify or make adjustments to the engine emission system by unauthorized personnel without proper training could damage the equipment or create an unsafe condition. Additionally, modifying the fuel system may adversely affect evaporative emissions, resulting in fines or other penalties. Emission Control Label The emission control label is an integral part of the emission system and is strictly controlled by regulations. The label must remain with the engine for its entire life. If a replacement emission label is needed, please contact your authorized Honda Engine Distributor.
