The exact location of the hazards and the description of the hazards are reviewed in this section. Please become familiar with all warning signs. Ensure that all of the warning signs are legible. Clean the warning signs or replace the warning signs if the words cannot be read or if the pictures are not visible. When the warning signs are cleaned, use a cloth, water, and soap. Do not use solvent, gasoline, or other harsh chemicals to clean the warning signs.
Solvents, gasoline, or harsh chemicals could loosen the adhesive that secures the warning signs. The warning signs that are loosened could drop off of the engine. g00780729 Illustration 1 (1) Valve cover (2) Hydraulic Pump The warning label for the starting aid is located on the flat portion of the valve cover.
