General safety precautions
These safety precautions are important. You must
refer also to the local regulations in the country of use.
Some items only refer to specific applications.
! Only use these engines in the type of application
for which they have been designed.
! Do not change the specification of the engine.
! Do not smoke when you put fuel in the tank.
! Clean away fuel which has been spilt. Material
which has been contaminated by fuel must be
moved to a safe place.
! Do not put fuel in the tank while the engine runs
(unless it is absolutely necessary).
! Do not clean, add lubricating oil, or adjust the
engine while it runs (unless you have had the
correct training; even then extreme care must be
used to prevent injury).
! Do not make adjustments that you do not
understand.
! Ensure that the engine does not run in a location
where it can cause a concentration of toxic
emissions.
! Other persons must be kept at a safe distance
while the engine or auxiliary equipment is in
operation.
! Do not permit loose clothing or long hair near
moving parts.
! Keep away from moving parts during engine
operation. Warning! Some moving parts cannot
be seen clearly while the engine runs.
! Do not operate the engine if a safety guard has
been removed.
! Do not remove the filler cap or any component of
the cooling system while the engine is hot and
while the coolant is under pressure, because
dangerous hot coolant can be discharged.
! Do not use salt water or any other coolant which
can cause corrosion in the closed circuit of the
cooling system.
! Do not allow sparks or fire near the batteries
(especially when the batteries are on charge)
because the gases from the electrolyte are highly
flammable. The battery fluid is dangerous to the
skin and especially to the eyes.
! Disconnect the battery terminals before a repair is
made to the electrical system.
! Only one person must control the engine.
! Ensure that the engine is operated only from the
control panel or from the operators position.
! If your skin comes into contact with high-pressure
fuel, obtain medical assistance immediately.
! Diesel fuel and lubricating oil (especially used
lubricating oil) can damage the skin of certain
persons. Protect your hands with gloves or a
special solution to protect the skin.
! Do not wear clothing which is contaminated by
lubricating oil. Do not put material which is
contaminated with oil into the pockets of clothing.
! Discard used lubricating oil in a safe place to
prevent contamination.
! Ensure that the control lever of the transmission
drive is in the "out-of-drive" position before the
engine is started.
! Use extreme care if emergency repairs must be
made in adverse conditions.
! The combustible material of some components of
the engine (for example certain seals) can
become extremely dangerous if it is burned. Never
allow this burnt material to come into contact with
the skin or with the eyes,
see page 20 .
! Read and use the instructions relevant to lift
equipment which are given
on page 19 .
! Always use a safety cage to protect the operator
when a component is to be pressure tested in a
container of water. Fit safety wires to secure the
plugs which seal the hose connections of a
component which is to be pressure tested.
! Do not allow compressed air to contact your skin.
If compressed air enters your skin, obtain medical
help immediately.
! Turbochargers operate at high speed and at high
temperatures. Keep fingers, tools and items away
from the inlet and outlet ports of the turbocharger
and prevent contact with hot surfaces.
! Do not clean an engine while it runs. If cold
cleaning fluids are applied to a hot engine, certain
components on the engine may be damaged.
! Fit only genuine Perkins parts.
