Cleaning engine and transmission
Including the engine encapsulation and all
hatches
• A clean engine compartment minimizes the risk of
overheating and wear damage.
• Prior to every engine compartment wash, a visual
inspection must be carried out to identify any fluid or
exhaust leakages.
• Following each wash, all hoses and bellows must be
inspected visually to identify any leakages, cracks
or chafing.
• Following each wash, electrical harnesses must be
visually inspected to identify any damage to
insulation, cable jackets or clamping.
• Battery, alternator, power steering unit and starter
motor cables must be inspected extra carefully.
• Any damage to hoses, bellows, grommets or
electrical harnesses must be reported immediately.
Important!
• When cleaning, always use mild detergents/
solvents.
• When cleaning the engine and engine
compartment, the alternator, idler pulley, belt
tensioner, power steering unit and all electrical
components must be covered with plastic or similar
so that detergent/solvents do not get into the parts
• Where fitted, the AC compressor must also be
protected with plastic or similar.
• When cleaning air coolers, they should be vacuum
cleaned first before flushing with warm water from
the inside out.
• Do not use a power washer on the air cooler.
• Clean the outside with a sponge/brush.
• Then flush with lukewarm water.
• When pressure washing and steam cleaning, water
pressure may not exceed 80-100 bar at the nozzle.
Maintain a distance of 100-150 mm; use a fan spray
nozzle.
• It is not permitted to came jets of water from the
pressure washer directly onto the alternator. The
electrical regulator, rectifiers, power steering units,
bellows and mechanical parts (bearings) may be
damaged and lead to serious consequential
damage.
NOTICE! If the generator is exposed to water, it must
be dried; see drying.
