Touching exhaust system during test can cause severe burns.
CARBON MONOXIDE (EXHAUST GAS) CAN KILL YOU
Exposure to exhaust gases produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss
of muscular control, drowsiness, or coma. Brain damage or death can result
from severe exposure.
Fumes from engine become concentrated with poor ventilation. Operate
engine in a ventilated area only.
While running engine, be alert for fumes. If someone is overcome, expose to
fresh air; keep warm and still; give artificial respiration if needed. Seek
medical attention. Administer oxygen, if available.
GOOD VENTILATION IS THE BEST DEFENSE AGAINST EXHAUST POISONING.
