Scalds from Contact with Hot Engine Parts
Pay sufficient attention not to bring part of your hand and body or clothes in contact
with the silencer, exhaust pipe and engine body during operation or immediately after
stopping the engine.

Never Operate the Engine while you are under the influence of alcohol
Also, never operate the engine when you are ill or feel unwell as this results in
unexpected accidents.
Safety Precautions for Inspection
Do not come in contact with battery electrolyte.
Pay sufficient attention to avoid your eyes or skin form being in contact with the
fluid. The battery electrolyte is dilute sulfuric acid and causes burns. Wash it off
immediately with a large amount of fresh water if you get any on you.
Fire due to Electric Short-Circuits
Make sure to turn off the battery switch or disconnect the negative cable ( )
before inspecting the electrical system. Failure to do so could cause short-
circuiting and fires.
Keep off Rotating Parts
Stop the engine before starting service operation. If you must inspect while the
engine is operating, never bring your hand, body or clothing in contact with or
close to rotating parts, as you may get injured by being caught by rotating parts.
Precautions to Prevent Scalds When Draining Hot Oil and Water
If lube oil must be drained from the engine while it is still hot, take care not to let
the oil splash on you to avoid scalding.
Wait until the temperature goes down before draining the coolant. Hot water
may splash to burn you.
Beware of dirt from air blowing
Wear protective equipment such as goggles to protect your eyes when blowing
compressed air. Dust or flying debris can hurt eyes.

5.3.5 Check every 1000 hours of operation
1. Cleaning the cooling system and checking cooling system parts
As this adjustment requires special knowledge and skill, consult with your dealer
or KAMA distributor. Rust and water scale will accumulate in the cooling water
system through many hours of operation. This lowers the engine cooling effect
and quickly deteriorates the lube oil. The following parts, especially, need
cleaning and maintenance each time the cooling water is replaced.
Cooling water system parts:
Radiator, cooling water pump, thermostat, cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, etc.
5.3.6 Check every 2000 hours of operation
1. Checking and replacing fuel hoses and cooling water hoses
As this adjustment requires special knowledge and skill, consult with your dealer
or KAMA distributor. Regularly check the rubber hoses of the fuel system and
cooling water system. If cracked or degraded, replace them with new ones.
2. Lapping intake and exhaust valves
As this adjustment requires special knowledge and skill, consult with your dealer
or KAMA distributor. The valves must be lapped to maintain air-tightness of
respective cylinders.
3. Checking and adjusting fuel injection timing
As this adjustment requires special knowledge and skill, consult with your dealer
or KAMA distributor. The fuel injection timing must be adjusted for best engine
performance.
