NOTE CAREFULLY: If an oil line fails, or an oil leak develops in the GCF Filter (either through failure of
part, sabotage, or faulty servicing of the unit), and the engine loses its oil supply, GCF disclaims any responsibility for damage to the engines should it be operated without proper
lubrication.
Every engine with oil-pressure lubrication has either a pressure gauge or warning light to indicate that oil pressure is not sufficient to
lubricate the engine. When this occurs, it is the responsibility of the operator to stop the engine, investigate the problem, and take whatever remedial action is necessary. |
