LUBRICATE OIL CHECK AND REPLACEMENT
FILL THE COOLANT CIRCUIT
The engine should not be used in environments containing flammable materials, explosive atmospheres or easily combustible powders, unless
specific and adequate precautions have been taken, clearly stated and certified for the engine.
Fuel is flammable, so the tank must be filled only when the engine is turned off. Close the fuel tank cap carefully after each filling operation. Do not fill
the tank right up to the top, but leave sufficient space to allow for any expansion of the fuel. Dry carefully any fuel that may have been spilled.
Remove the fuel container and any clothes soaked with fuel or oil.
Do not smoke or use naked flames while filling or operating the engine.
Make sure that any sound-absorbing panels made of porous material are not soaked with fuel or oil.
To start the engine follow the specific instructions provided in the manual ; do not use any spray device which may cause explosions in the air
manifold.
Before starting, check for and remove any tools that have been used to carrying out maintenance work to the engine and check that any guards
removed have been replaced.
Do not start the engine without fitting the air filter.
Preferably the oil should be emptied out while the engine is still hot. Particular care should be taken in order to avoid burns. In any event make
sure that oil does not come into contact with your skin because of the health hazards involved. Take care when removing the oil filter as it may be hot.
Check that the discharged oil, oil filter, air filter , fuel filter and all the parts replaced are disposed of in an environmentally.
Do not start or run the gen-set without closing the oil filler cup, as it may be possible for oil to escape.
Do not carry out any check, filling or replacement of the cooling liquid before the engine has cooled down. In any case use a suitable cloth to prevent
injury. Open the exchanger or the expansion tank cap cautiously and wait for any gas escape. Take particular care if liquids containing nitrites are
mixed with other not containing these compounds as this may give rise to the formation of nitrosamines, which are a health hazard. The cooling
liquid is polluting, so dispose of in an environmentally.
