protective gloves).
• During operation the engine surface reaches potentially
dangerous temperatures. Avoid any contact, especially with
the exhaust system.
• Before carrying out any operation on the engine, stop it and
allow it to cool to ambient temperature.
• Always open the radiator or expansion tank cap carefully,
wearing protective clothing and goggles.
• The liquid cooling circuit is under pressure. Do not perform any
checks until the engine has reached the ambient temperature.
• Where there is an electric fan, do not approach it if the engine
is hot because it could start operating even if the engine is off.
• Oil draining must be performed with the engine hot and
therefore special care is required in order to avoid burns.
Avoid skin contact with the oil as it can cause health damage.
• During operations that require access to moving parts of the
engine and/or removal of guards protecting rotating parts,
isolate electrical energy by disconnecting the negative cable (-)
from the battery to prevent shorts or the accidental activation
of the starter.
• Check belt tightness only with the engine off.
• Carefully close the tank cap after each refill. Do not completely
fill the tank but leave some room for fuel expansion.
• Only start the engine following the specific instructions in the
engine and/or machine manual. Do not use auxiliary starting
aids not originally installed on the machine (e.g., Startpilot).
• Before starting up, remove any tools that have been used
for engine and/or machine maintenance and make sure that
all protections, that may have been removed, are correctly
mounted.
• Always refit the protections and safety devices removed from
the partly completed machinery for maintenance purposes.
• Do not mix petrol or kerosene with diesel. Failure to respect
this prohibition will severely damage the catalytic converter
and result in a non-compliance with the emissions declared.
• Pay attention to the oil filter temperature during replacement.
• Checking, filling, and replacement of the coolant must take
place with the engine off and when it has reached the ambient
temperature. The coolant is a pollutant and must be disposed
of with respect for the environment.
• Do not use jets of air and water at high pressure on the wiring,
connectors, and injectors.
• Accidental start-up of the engine can cause serious personal
injury or death. Before any intervention on the engine or
equipment, disconnect the negative cable (-) from the battery.
• The hot parts can cause serious burns. The parts of the engine
can overheat during operation. Avoid touching the engine if it is
in operation or immediately after it has been turned off. Do not
operate the engine without the thermal guards or safety covers.
• The rotating parts can cause serious personal injury. Keep
a safe distance from the engine in operation. Keep hands,
feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to avoid
personal injury. Never operate the engine without the casings
or safety covers.
• Carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting or death.
Never operate the engine in closed or confined areas to
prevent breathing in exhaust gases (carbon monoxide).
Carbon monoxide is a poisonous, odourless, and colourless
compound that can have lethal effects if inhaled.
• Fluids at high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause
serious or lethal injury. Interventions on the fuel system must
only be carried out by adequately trained personnel wearing
the prescribed personal protective equipment. Fluid injection
injuries can have a highly toxic effect and are dangerous. In
case of injury, immediately seek medical advice.
• The explosive fuel could cause fires and serious burns. The
fuel is extremely flammable and if there are sparks its vapours
can ignite and cause explosions. Only store fuel in certified
containers, in ventilated, uninhabited buildings and away
from open flames or sparks. Do not fill the fuel tank when the
engine is hot or running in order to keep any fuel that may
have leaked from catching fire when it comes in contact with
hot parts or sparks generated by the ignition system. Do not
start the engine near fuel that has leaked during filling. Never
use fuel for cleaning purposes.
• The explosive gas could cause fires and serious burns.
Only charge the batteries in a well-ventilated area. Keep the
battery away from sparks, open flames, and other ignition
sources. While recharging, the batteries produce explosive
hydrogen. Keep the batteries out of reach of children. Remove
all metallic jewellery before working around batteries. Before
disconnecting the negative cable (-), make sure all of the
switches are in the OFF position. Otherwise, sparks could be
created on the ground cable with the risk of explosion.
• An electric shock can cause serious personal injury. Do not
touch electrical wires when the engine is running.
• Exhaust emitted by the engine of this product contain
chemicals that, according to the laws in the State of California,
are known to cause cancer, birth defects or reproductive harm.
