Machine-specific safety instructions for operation
Introduction
The machine can pose residual risks during operation. To eliminate these
risks, all persons working on the machine must follow the general and ma-
chine-specific safety instructions.
If you have an engine that is not yet installed in a machine, it is imperative
that you follow the
Assembly Instructions for HATZ Diesel Engines
be-
fore installing the engine.
These assembly instructions contain important information on safe installa-
tion.
If the engine is installed in a machine or assembled with other machines to
form a machine, it is prohibited to start the engine before it has been deter-
mined that the newly created machine fulfills all safety-related requirements
and applicable legal regulations.
Safe operation
▪ Before switching on the machine, ensure that no one can be injured when
the machine is started up.
▪ During machine operation, ensure that unauthorized persons do not have
access to the area in which the machine has an impact.
▪ Parts of the exhaust gas system and the surface of the engine become hot
during operation. Risk of injury from touching hot parts! Let the engine cool
before maintenance.
▪ Do not refuel during operation.
Faults
▪ Immediately eliminate faults that compromise safety.
▪ Switch off the machine and do not take into service again until all faults
have been eliminated.
