engine has been shut off. Do not remove a fi ller cap
unless it is cool enough to comfortably grip with bare hands.
Slowly loosen cap to relieve pressure before opening fully.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids
Relieve pressure prior to
disconnecting pressurized
lines. Escaping fl uid under
pressure can penetrate the
skin causing serious injury.
Always relieve pressure
before disconnecting
hydraulic or other pressurized lines. Tighten all
connections fi rmly before re-applying pressure.
If searching for leaks, use a piece of cardboard. Always
protect your hands and other body parts from high-
pressure fl uids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any high
pressure spray injected into the skin must be removed
within a few hours to prevent the risk of gangrene or
other infection.
Avoid Heating Near Pressurized Fluid Lines
Flammable spray can be
generated by heating near
pressurized fl uid lines,
resulting in severe burns and
bodily injury. Pressurized
lines can rupture when heat
goes beyond the immediate
fl ame area. Do not weld,
solder or use a torch or open fl ame near pressurized lines
or other fl ammable fl uids.
Do Not Open High-Pressure Fuel System
Many Northern Lights engines use high-pressure fuel
injection. High-pressure fl uid remaining in fuel lines can
cause serious injury. Do not disconnect or attempt any
repair of fuel lines, sensors, or other components between
the high-pressure fuel pump and nozzles on engines with
high pressure fuel systems.
ONLY AUTHORIZED TECHNICIANS CAN
PERFORM REPAIRS ON AN HIGH PRESSURE FUEL
INJECTION SYSTEMS.
All potentially hazardous chemicals come with a Material
Data Safety Sheet (MSDS). The MSDS provides specifi c
details on chemical products, including physical hazards,
safety procedures and emergency response techniques
.
Read and understand the MSDS for each chemical before
you start any job that includes it. Follow the procedures
and use appropriate equipment exactly as recommended.
Contact your Northern Lights dealer or Northern Lights
factory for MSDS’s used on Northern Lights products.
Work in Well Ventilated Areas
Exhaust fumes from engines contain carbon monoxide
and can cause sickness or death. Work in well
ventilated areas to avoid prolonged exposure to engine
fumes. If it is necessary to run an engine in an enclosed
area, route the exhaust fumes out of the area with an
approved, leak proof exhaust pipe extension.
Remove Paint Before Welding or Heating
Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is
heated by welding, soldering or using a torch. To avoid
potentially toxic fumes and dust, remove paint before
heating.
• Remove paint a
minimum of 100 mm
(4 in.) from the area
that will be affected by
heat.
• If paint cannot be
removed, wear an
approved respirator.
• If you sand or grind paint, use an approved respirator.
• If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove stripper
with soap and water before welding. Remove
solvent or paint stripper containers from the area.
• Allow at least 15 minutes for fumes to disperse
before welding or heating.
Do not use a chlorinated solvent in an area where
welding will occur. Work only in areas that are well
ventilated. Dispose of paint and solvent properly.
Service Cooling System Safely
Opening a pressurized cooling
system can release explosive
fl uids and causing serious burns.
Before opening any pressurized
cooling system, make sure the
