Table Caption: This table lists drill bit sizes, presented in both fractional and numerical formats, alongside their corresponding decimal equivalents in inches. It provides a comprehensive reference for selecting the appropriate drill bit based on its diameter.
THE OPERATING & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAIN SAFETY INFORMATION TO
- Make you aware of hazards associated with engines
- Inform you of the risk of injury associated with those hazards, and
- Tell you how to avoid or reduce the risk of injury.
The safety alert symbol ( ) is used to identify safety information about hazards that can result in personal injury.
A signal word (DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION) is used with the alert symbol to indicate the likelihood and the potential severity of injury. In addition, a hazard symbol may be used to represent the type of hazard.
DANGER indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, might result in minor or moderate injury.
CAUTION , when used without the alert symbol, indicates a situation that could result in damage to the engine.
SAFETY
Gaseous fuels are extremely flammable and readily form explosive air-vapor mixtures at ambient temperatures.
IF YOU SMELL GAS:
- DO NOT start the engine.
- DO NOT actuate any electrical switches.
- DO NOT use the phone in the vicinity.
- Evacuate the area.
- Contact the gas supplier or fire department.
REMEMBER:
- Vapor is heavier than air and may travel to remote locations.
- Keep all flames, sparks, pilot lights, and other ignition sources away from the area where the engine is operated or repaired.
- DO NOT smoke when operating or repairing the engine.
- DO NOT store gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of the engine.
- BEFORE doing any service work to the engine, shut off the gas supply.
- After initial installation or servicing, check for gas leaks. DO NOT use an open flame. Apply very soapy water or leak test solution with a brush and look for bubbles.
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.
Unintentional start-up can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation, or laceration.
BEFORE PERFORMING ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS
- Disconnect spark plug wire
