Safety information
Important
In this book and on the product you will find the fol-
lowing special warning symbols.
WARNING! Warns for the risk of personal inju-
ry, major damage to product or property, or se-
rious malfunctions if the instruction is ignored.
IMPORTANT! Is used to call attention to things
which could cause damage or malfunctions to
product or property.
NOTE! Is used to call attention to important informa-
tion, to facilitate work processes or operation.
To give you a overview of the risks which always
need to be observed and precautions which always
have to be taken, we have noted them below.
Make it impossible to start the engine by cutting
system current with the main switch(es)and lock
it (them) in the off position before starting ser-
vice work. Set up a warning notice by the helm
station.
As a general rule all service operations must be
carried out with the engine stopped. Some
tasks, such as adjustments, need the engine to
be running, however. Approaching an engine
which is operating is a safety hazard. Remem-
ber that loose clothing or long hair can get
caught in rotating parts and cause serious per-
sonal injury.
Introduction
This workshop manual contains technical data, de-
scriptions and repair instructions for the Volvo Penta
products or product versions noted in the table of
contents. Check that you have the correct Workshop
Manual for your engine.
Read this safety information and the General Informa-
tion and Repair Instructions in the workshop manual
carefully before starting work.
If work is done adjacent to a running engine, a care-
less movement or a dropped tool can lead to personal
injury in the worst case.
Take care to avoid contact with hot surfaces (exhaust
pipes, Turbocharger, air intake pipe, starter heater
etc.) and fluids in pipes and hoses in an engine which
is running or has just been stopped. Reinstall all pro-
tective parts removed during servicework before
starting the engine.
Never start the engine with the cover removed.
Apart from the risk of spilling oil, there is a risk
of personal injury.
Check that the warning or information labels on
the product are always clearly visible. Replace
labels which have been damaged or painted
over.
Never start the engine without installing the air
cleaner filter. Foreign objects entering the in-
take ducts can cause mechanical damage.
Never use start spray or similar products as a
starting aid. They may cause an explosion in
the inlet manifold. Danger of personal injury.
Avoid opening the coolant filling cap when the
engine is hot. Steam or hot coolant can spray
out and the system pressure will be lost. Open
the filler cap slowly, and release the pressure in
the cooling system if the filling cap or tap has to
be opened, or if a plug or coolant hose has to
be removed when the engine is hot. It is difficult
to anticipate in which direction steam or hot
coolant can spray out.
Hot oil can cause burns. Avoid skin contact with
hot oil. Ensure that the lubrication system is not
under pressure before carrying out any work.
Never start or operate the engine with the oil fill-
er cap removed, otherwise oil could be ejected.
Stop the engine and close the sea cocks before
doing any work on the cooling system.
