1.1.6.6 Engine maintenance safety
• Stop the engine before you do the maintenance
or repair work.
• Before you do the maintenance or repair work
on the electrical system set the battery primary
switch to OFF.
• Surfaces and components near and on the
engine are hot when the engine has operated.
• Always let the components that contain hot
fluid or gas decrease in temperature before you
touch or open them.
• Before you do work on the cooling system,
make sure that you:
- Read the manual for the correct procedure.
- Let the radiator become cool.
- Gradually open the radiator cap to release
the pressure in the system.
• Fuel, lubricants or coolant can cause injury to
your skin. Put on your personal protective
equipment if it is necessary.
• Discard all unwanted materials correctly. Make
sure that you obey all local laws when you
recycle or discard these items.
• It is necessary to replace some components
after you remove them, for example an O-ring.
Make sure that you always replace these
components and do not install them again.
• Only use the components and fluids that have
AGCO approval.
• After you do the maintenance, examine the
work to make sure that it is correct. For
example, do an inspection for leaks.
