Safety Information
Introduction
The Workshop Manual contains technical data, de-
scriptions, and repair instructions for the designated
Volvo Penta products or product versions. Make sure
that the correct workshop literature is used.
Read the following safety information and the
General Information and Repair Instructions in
the Workshop Manual carefully before starting
service work.
As a rule, all service work should be performed
on an idle engine. Some work, e.g. certain ad-
justments, require the engine to be running.
Approaching an engine that is running is a
safety risk. Remember that loose clothes or
long hair can fasten in rotating parts and cause
severe injury.
A careless movement or dropped tool while
working in the vicinity of an engine that is run-
ning, can in the worst case lead to injury. Ob-
serve caution on hot surfaces (exhaust pipe,
turbo, charge air pipe, starter element etc.) and
hot fluids in the lines and hoses of an engine
that is running, or has just been started. Refit
all guards dismantled during service work be-
fore starting the engine.
Make sure that the warning or information de-
cals on the product are always clearly visible.
Replace labels that have been damaged or
painted over.
Never start the engine unless the air filter is fit-
ted. The rotating compressor wheel in the turbo
can cause severe injury. Foreign objects in the
inlet pipe can also damage the machine.
Never use starter spray or the like. Explosion
risk in the inlet pipe. Risk of personal injury.
Avoid opening the coolant filler cap when the
engine is hot. Steam or hot coolant can spray
out, and built up pressure will be lost. Open the
filler cap slowly and release the overpressure
in the cooling system if the filler cap or cock
must be opened, or if a plug or coolant pipe
must be removed when the engine is hot.
Steam or hot coolant can flow out in an unpre-
dicted direction.
Hot oil can cause burn injuries. Avoid skin con-
tact with hot oil. Make sure that the oil system
is not pressurised before working on it. Never
start, or run the engine with the oil filler cap re-
moved in view of the risk of ejecting oil.
Important
The following special warning symbols are used in the
Workshop Manual and on the product.
WARNING! Warns of risk of bodily injury, seri-
ous damage to product or property, or that a se-
rious malfunction can occur if the instructions
are not followed.
IMPORTANT! Used to attract attention to things
that can cause damage or malfunction to prod-
uct or property.
NOTE! Used to attract attention to important informa-
tion, to simplify work procedures or handling.
The following list provides an overview of the risks
and cautionary procedures that should always be ob-
served.
Prevent the engine from being started by dis-
connecting the power with the main switch
(switches) and locking it (them) in disconnected
mode before the service work is begun. Attach
a warning sign in the cabin.
