Work safety in engine compartment
CAUTION
The engine compartment is a dangerous area which
can be a source of burns, injuries and accidents:
always be careful!
Do not forget to protect yourself with appropriate
equipment such as: gloves, protective goggles …
Never open the engine cover or perform any work
on the engine if you observe any water vapor or
coolant coming out of the engine: you could seriously
burn yourself .
Wait until the engine has fully cooled down and these
signs have stopped.
Always switch off the engine , remove the key from
the ignition switch and press the stop button.
Place the control lever in the neutral position.
Always work on the engine with the
engine cold .
Keep children away from the engine.
Never open the coolant reservoir plug so long as
the engine is at operating temperature as the cooling
system will be pressurized.
Never pour any operating fluids on the engine;
these are flammable and the engine's high
temperature could cause these fluids to ignite and
cause a
fire .
The engine has a dangerous electrical system .
Make sure you are familiar with all the rules and
instructions before intervening on the supply or on
the electrical equipment:
Never inspect the system when the engine is
running: electrocution hazard.
In operation, the engine outputs a low voltage; do
not touch conductive parts.
Electrical interventions should be performed by a
qualified technician. If any mistakes are make, this
could create an accident, or even a fire.
Avoid short-circuits in the electrical system,
especially at the battery.
If operations must be performed when the engine
is running, be careful with rotating parts, such as the
belt on the alternator.
For work performed on the fuel supply or the
electrical system, observe the following rules:
Always disconnect the battery from the engine.
Do not smoke near the engine.
Do not work near open flames.
Always have a fire extinguisher ready to use.
Keep away from all operating fluids. These are
poisonous for the skin. If accidentally projected into
the eye, rinse thoroughly immediately, and contact a
doctor, bringing the product recipient with you.
If you are performing operations in open sea, keep in
mind the following recommendations:
Swells and waves can cause you to loose your
balance.
The risk of spilling dangerous operating fluids is
thus increased.
Safety is sharply decreased as medical help will be
more difficult to get to.
Limit to the maximum any operations performed at
sea as these sharply increase hazards and danger.
If topping up with an operating fluid, be sure not to
mistakenly use one fluid in place of another. This can
be a source of danger and can also result in damage
to your engine.
Regularly inspect the bottom of the
engine hold and keep it clean to more easily detect
tightening faults. If you notice any suspicious spots,
call a NANNI INDUSTRIES After-Sales Service
partner.
