Warning!
Handling heavy components as those men-
tioned above, requires experience in stacking and
lifting. Work involving this must never be done by
inexperienced personnel. Always make sure the lift
tools can cope with the work in hand and are in
good condition.
Make sure the lift fixture slots securely into the en-
gine lift points and that the guide edges fix against
the lift forks or lift table.
Always switch off the main switch and disconnect
the battery cables before removing electrical con-
nections.
The number and location of the drain points vary with
bus type. Drain points common to all types are the radi-
ator and two drain points on the engine. Coolant must
be handled with the same care and caution as for
other fluids dangerous to health.
