4.) Wear hearing protectors (ear muffs or plugs) if
exposed to irritating noise.
5.) The cooling system is pressurised, and the
pressure is checked at the radiator plug or the
radiator expansion tank.
Removing the cap
when the engine is hot is extremely
dangerous. Switch off the engine and wait
until it has cooled down sufficiently
. Even
when the engine is cold, remove the cap with
extreme caution covering it with a cloth and
turning it slowly to the first stop to release
pressure before removing it completely.
Coolant may be added only when the engine is
switched off and cold.
Failure to comply with
these instructions may cause severe burns
by sprays of liquid or steam, and damage to
the engine cooling system
.
6.) The coolant (antifreeze) contains
monoethylene glycol and other chemicals
which are toxic if ingested; prolonged contact
with the skin should also be avoided. When
working with antifreeze, take the following
precautions:
• Use rubber gloves and goggles to prevent
injury from splashes.
• Do not ingest the solution. If swallowed, see
a doctor immediately.
• If any part of the body should come into
contact with the solution, wash immediately
under running water.
• Keep the antifreeze in sealed containers,
out of reach of children, livestock and pets.

DANGER:
Risk of burning and scalding.
7.) The diesel oil in the injection system is
pressurised and sprays may penetrate your
skin. The injectors or other parts of the
injection system must not be modified, opened
or repaired by unauthorised personnel.
Non-compliance with this precaution may
result in serious injuries.
8.) In any event, avoid contact with hot engine oil.
If the oil is very hot, let it cool off to a moderate
temperature before draining it.
9.) Replace the oil filter only when the engine is
cold and under no circumstances with bare
hands, to avoid contact with the oil.
10.) Continuous contact with used engine oil may
cause skin cancer. Protect your skin with
rubber gloves, specifically suited for mineral
oils. If the oil should come into contact with
your skin, wash immediately in running water
and soap; never use solvents.
