adequate and clearly indicated precautions have been
taken and have been certified for the machine.
• To prevent fire hazards, always keep the machine at least
one meter from buildings or from other machinery.
• Children and animals must be kept at a due distance from
operating machines in order to prevent hazards deriving
from their operation.
• Thoroughly wash and clean all the external parts of the
engine before performing any operation, in order to avoid
the accidental introduction of impurities/foreign bodies.
Use only water and/or appropriate products to clean the
engine. If cleaning engine with a pressure washer or steam
cleaner, it is important to maintain a minimum distance of at
least 200mm between the surface to be washed and the nozzle.
• The engine may only be assembled on a machine by
personnel specifically trained by KOHLER and who work in
compliance with the existing documentation.
• The engine has been built to the specifications of a machine
manufacturer, and it is his responsibility to ensure that all
necessary action is taken to meet the essential and legally
prescribed health and safety requirements. Any use of the
machine other than that described cannot be considered
as complying with its intended purpose as specified by
KOHLER, which therefore declines all responsibility for
accidents caused by such operations.
Avoid directing the nozzle on electrical components,
cable connections and sealed rings (oil seals etc).
Thoroughly wash and clean the area surrounding the
engine following the instructions provided by machine
manufacturer.

when the engine is off. Before starting, dry any spilt fuel.
• Make sure that no soundproofing panels and the ground or
floor on which the machine is standing have not soaked up
any fuel.
• Fuel vapour is highly toxic. Only refuel outdoors or in a well
ventilated place.
• Do not smoke or use open flames when refuelling.
• During operation, the surface of the engine can become
dangerously hot. Avoid touching the exhaust system in
particular.
• Before proceeding with any operation on the engine, stop it
and allow it to cool.
• Always open the radiator plug or expansion chamber with
the utmost caution, wearing protective garments and
goggles.
• The coolant fluid is under pressure. Never carry out any
inspections until the engine has cooled.
• If there is an electric fan, do not approach the engine when
it is still hot as the fan could also start operating when the
engine is at a standstill.
