If any sediment is stirred up during the
process this has time to settle before the
engine is used again, this will minimise the
risk of condensation contaminating the
fuel.
If cans are used, avoid tipping out the last
few drops.
h. Funnels are very difficult to keep clean in
dusty conditions.
Wash them before and after use and
wrap them up when not required, or fill
the tank direct from a small mouthed
screw capped fuel can.
i. The fuel injection equipment is manu-
factured to very accurate limits and the
smallest particle of dirt will destroy its
efficiency.
Fuel, free from water and contaminants
is of the utmost importance.
General Precautions
a.
Ensure the engine is securely mounted.
b. Ensure that there is a generous supply of
cooling and combustion air available.
c. Keep the engine and surrounding area
clean.
d. Keep all safety guards in position.
e.
Keep the body and clothing clear of all
moving or hot parts.
f.
Never allow any part of the body to come
into contact with high pressure fuel oil,
for example when testing fuel injection
equipment.
g.
Thoroughly clean any lubricating or fuel
oil from the skin as soon as possible.
h.
Rectify all fuel and oil leaks as soon as
practicable and clean any spillages when
they occur.
