SERIES 50 OPERATOR'S GUIDE
To avoid injury from fire caused
by heated lubricating-oil vapors:
Keep those people who
are not directly involved
in servicing away from the
engine.
Stop the engine immediately
if an oil leak is detected.
Do not allow open flames or
smoke when working on an
operating engine.
Wear adequate protective
clothing (face shield,
insulated gloves, apron, etc.)
to avoid burns.
To prevent a buildup of
potentially volatile vapors,
keep the engine area well
ventilated during operation.
Lubricating oil is relatively
harmless at ambient
temperatures.
