Never idle the engine in a closed area. Exhaust
gases, particularly carbon monoxide, may build
up. These gases are harmful and potentially lethal.
With the engine running, this machine will spot
turn when the steering wheel is turned, even if the
transmission is in NEUTRAL.
To avoid personal injury due to unexpected
movement, engage the parking brake and make
sure the area is free of personnel before starting
the engine.

Doing so can damage the drive train.
