4TNV98 & 4TNE98 Diesel Engine Section 2. Periodic Maintenance 31
DANGER
CRUSH HAZARD!
When you need to transport an engine for repair,
have a helper assist you to attach it to a hoist
and load it on a truck.
NEVER stand under a hoisted engine. If the
hoist mechanism fails, the engine will fall on
you, causing death or serious injury.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious
injury.
DANGER
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD!
Diesel fuel is flammable and explosive under
certain conditions.
When you remove any fuel system component
to perform maintenance (such as changing the
fuel filter) place an approved container under
the opening to catch the fuel.
NEVER use a shop rag to catch the fuel. Vapors
from the rag are flammable and explosive.
Wipe up any spills immediately.
Wear eye protection. The fuel system is under
pressure and fuel could spray out when you
remove any fuel system component.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious
injury.
DANGER
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD!
Diesel fuel is flammable and explosive under
certain conditions.
Place an approved container under the air bleed
port when you prime the fuel system. Never use
a shop rag to catch the fuel. Wipe up any spills
immediately. ALWAYS close the air bleed port
after you complete priming the system.
Wear eye protection. The fuel system is under
pressure and fuel could spray out when you
open the air bleed port.
If the unit has an electric fuel pump, turn the
key switch to the ON position for 10 to 15
seconds, or until the fuel coming out of the air
bleed port is free of bubbles, to allow the
electric fuel pump to prime the system.
If the unit has a mechanical fuel pump, operate
the fuel priming pump several times until the
fuel coming out of the air bleed port is free of
bubbles.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious
injury.
