INTRODUCTION
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Statement and
Labels
Mack Trucks cannot anticipate every
possible occurrence which may involve
a potential hazard. An accident can be
avoided by recognizing potentially
hazardous situations before a dangerous
situation occurs. Correctly performed
service procedures are critical for
technician safety and safe, reliable
operation of the vehicle.
DANGER
Do not operate the engine in an enclosed
area. All internal combustion engines give
off various fumes and gases while
running. Inhalation of exhaust fumes can
cause death.
DANGER
Do not sit in a parked vehicle for any
extended amount of time with the engine
running if there are leaks in the exhaust
system. Exhaust fumes could leak into the
cab area and death can result. On a
regular basis inspect the exhaust system
for leaks and repair any leakage.
DANGER
Driver attitude is the most important part
of any effective vehicle safety system.
Mack Trucks encourage all drivers and
passengers to use their seat belts, drive
defensively, remain alert and respect the
speed limits. Many accidents can also be
avoided through regular vehicle
maintenance.
DANGER
Engine-driven components such as Power
Take-Off (PTO) units, fans and fan belts,
driveshafts and other related rotating
assemblies, can be very dangerous. Do
not service engine-driven components
unless the engine is shut down. Always
keep body parts and loose clothing out of
range of these powerful components to
prevent serious personal injury. Be aware
of PTO engagement or nonengagement
status. Always disengage the PTO when
not in use.
WARNING
Certain everyday procedures such as
washing the vehicle and cleaning the
windshield can also be hazardous
because of the vehicles height. Mack
Trucks does NOT recommend climbing up
on the vehicle to perform those
operations. Instead, stand on the ground
and use brushes and squeegees mounted
on an extension pole. When better access
is necessary (for instance, when washing
the cab roof), use sturdy ladders held in
place by someone on the ground.
WARNING
Secure loose objects. Loose objects in the
cab or sleeper can be dangerous in a
sudden stop or on bad roads. Secure any
appliance added to the vehicle, such as a
refrigerator or a radio.
WARNING
Keep clear of fan when engine is running.
Fan may start to rotate at high speed
without warning.
