Information about these instructions
User tip
This provisional version of the instructions reflects the current development state of the engines.
These instructions therefore contain graphic representations of the MAN industrial gas engines on which
these instructions are based.
These instructions provide important information on handling engines. Safe working can only be assured if
all safety instructions and handling instructions are followed.
In addition to this, the local accident prevention regulations and general safety regulations applicable to the
engines' field of application must be followed.
Timely and proper maintenance and care of the engines according to the set maintenance intervals ensure
and maintain the operational safety and the reliable application of these engines.
Only use genuine MAN spare parts and accessories or ones that have been approved by MAN.
Only the genuine spare parts approved by us have been tested by us and therefore meet the requirements
for use of the engine.
A particular concern of MAN is to improve environmental protection.
This begins with the development and design of our engines. We make sure that no environmentally ha
zardous materials are used and, for example, that the emissions fulfil the highest requirements.
Economical operation helps to conserve our resources and our environment.
