1.8 Exhaust Gases Are Deadly
Provide an adequate exhaust system to properly expel discharged gases away
from enclosed or sheltered areas, and areas where individuals are likely to
congregate. Visually and audibly inspect the exhaust system daily for leaks per
the maintenance schedule. Make sure that exhaust manifolds are secured and
not warped. Do not use exhaust gases to heat a compartment.
