Preparations
Knowledge
The operator’s manual contains instructions on how
to carry out general maintenance and service opera-
tions safely and correctly. Read the instructions care-
fully before starting work.
Service literature covering more complicated opera-
tions is available from your Volvo Penta dealer.
Never carry out any work on the engine if you are
unsure of how it should be done, contact your Volvo
Penta dealer who will be glad to offer assistance.
Stop the engine
Stop the engine before opening or removing engine
hatches. Unless otherwise specified all maintenance
and service must be carried out with the engine stop-
ped.
To prevent accidental start of the boat engine, remove
the ignition key, turn off the power supply to the engine
at the main switches and lock them in the OFF posi-
tion before starting work. Put up a warning sign in the
control position that work on the engine is being car-
ried out.
Approaching or working on an engine which is running
is a safety risk. Loose clothing, hair, fingers or a drop-
ped tool can be caught in the rotating parts of the
engine and cause serious personal injury. Volvo
Penta recommend that all servicing with the engine
running should be undertaken by an authorized Volvo
Penta workshop.
Lifting the engine
When lifting the engine, use the lifting eyes installed
on the engine. Always check that lifting equipment is
in good condition and has sufficient load capacity to
lift the engine (engine weight including any extra
equipment installed). For safety’s sake lift the engine
using an adjustable lifting beam. All chains and cables
should run parallel to each other and as perpendicular
as possible in relation to the top of the engine. Bear
in mind that extra equipment installed on the engine
may alter its center of gravity. Special lifting equip-
ment may then be required in order to maintain the
correct balance and make the engine safe to handle.
Never carry out work on an engine suspended on a
hoist.
Before starting the engine
Reinstall all protective parts removed during service
operations before starting the engine. Check that no
tools or other items have been left on the engine.
Never start a turbocharged engine without installing
the air cleaner (ACL). The rotating compressor in the
Turbocharger unit can cause serious personal injury.
Foreign objects can also be sucked in and cause
mechanical damage to the unit.
Fire and explosion
Fuel and lubrication oil
All fuel, most lubricants and many chemicals are
inflammable. Read and follow the instructions on the
packaging.
When carrying out work on the fuel system, make sure
the engine is cold. A fuel spill onto a hot surface or
electrical components can cause a fire.
Store fuel soaked rags and other flammable material
so that there is no danger of them catching fire. Fuel-
soaked rags can self-ignite under certain conditions.
Do not smoke when filling fuel, oil or in proximity of a
filling station or in the engine room.
Non-original components
Components used in the fuel and electrical systems
on Volvo Penta products are designed and con-
structed to minimize the risk of fire and explosion.
Using non-original Volvo Penta parts can result in fire
or explosion on board.
Batteries
The batteries contain and emit oxyhydrogen gas,
especially during charging. This gas is easily ignited
and highly volatile.
Do not under any circumstances smoke or use naked
flame or allow sparks in the vicinity of the batteries or
battery compartment.
An incorrect connection of a battery terminal cable or
jump-start cable can cause a spark which in its turn
can be sufficient to cause an explosion.
Start spray
Never use start spray or similar agents to start an
engine equipped with air pre-heating (glow plugs/
starter element). This may cause an explosion in the
inlet manifold. Danger of personal injury.
