Safety rules for operation and maintenance
Daily checks
Make it a habit to always give the engine and engine
bay a visual check before operation
(before the en-
gine is started) and after driving (when the engine
has been stopped) . This helps you to quickly discov-
er whether any leakage of fuel, coolant, oil or any oth-
er abnormal event has happened, or is about to hap-
pen.
Fuel filling
There is always a risk of fire and explosion during fuel
filling. Smoking is not permissible, and the engine
should be stopped.
Never over-fill the tank. Shut the tank cap securely.
Only use the fuel recommended in the instruction
book. The wrong grade of fuel can cause malfunctions
or stop the engine. In a diesel engine, it can also
cause the injection pump to bind and the engine will
over-rev, entailing a strong risk of personal injury and
machinery damage.
Carbon monoxide poisoning
Only start the engine in a well- ventilated area. When
operated in a confined space, exhaust fumes and
crankcase gases must be ventilated.
Operation
The engine must not be operated in environments
which contain explosive media since none of the elec-
trical and mechanical components are explosion
proof.
Going close to a running engine is a safety risk. Hair,
fingers, loose clothes, or dropped tools can catch on
rotating components and cause severe injury.
When engines are supplied without touch guards, all
rotating components and hot surfaces must be pro-
tected after installation in their application, if neces-
sary for personal safety.
Ignition lock
If the instrument panel does not have a key switch,
the engine room must be lockable, to prevent unau-
thorized persons from starting the engine. Alternative-
ly, a lockable main switch can be used.
Care and maintenance
Knowledge
The instruction book contains instructions for doing
the most common service and maintenance tasks in a
safe and correct manner. Read them carefully before
starting work.
Literature for more major tasks is available from your
Volvo Penta dealer.
Never do a job if you are not entirely sure about how
to do it. Please contact your Volvo Penta dealer and
ask for assistance instead.
Stop the engine
Stop the engine before opening or removing the en-
gine hatch/hood. Care and maintenance work should
be done with the engine stopped unless otherwise
specified.
Prevent the engine from being started by pulling out
the starter key and cutting the current with the battery
isolator. Lock them in the “Off” position. Fix a notice
by the operator’s seat to say that work is in progress.
Working with, or going close to a running engine is a
safety risk. Hair, fingers, loose clothes, or dropped
tools can catch on rotating components and cause se-
vere injury. Volvo Penta recommends that all service
work which requires the engine to be running should
be done by an authorized Volvo Penta workshop.
