CAUTION:
To avoid injury from fire, contain
and eliminate leaks of flammable
fluids as they occur. Failure to
eliminate leaks could result in fire.
7. Observe the following cautions
when servicing the cooling
system:
CAUTION:
To avoid injury from the expulsion
of hot coolant, never remove the
cooling system pressure cap while
the engine is at operating temper-
ature. Remove the cap slowly to
relieve pressure. Wear adequate
protective clothing (face shield or
safety goggles, rubber gloves,
apron, and boots).
CAUTION:
To avoid injury from slipping and
falling, immediately clean up any
spilled liquids.
8. Observe the following cautions
when working on the engine air
intake system:
CAUTION:
To avoid injury from hot surfaces,
allow engine to cool before
removing any component. Wear
protective gloves.
CAUTION:
To avoid injury from contact with
rotating parts when an engine is
operating with the air inlet piping
removed, install an air inlet screen
shield over the turbocharger air
inlet. The shield prevents contact
with rotating parts.
9. Observe the following cautions
when replacing the engine lubri-
cating oil and filters:
CAUTION:
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 cloth-
ing (face shield, insulated
gloves, apron, etc.) to avoid
burns.
To prevent a buildup of poten-
tially volatile vapors, keep the
engine area well ventilated dur-
ing operation.
Lubricating oil is relatively harm-
less at ambient temperatures.
CAUTION:
To avoid injury from slipping and
falling, immediately clean up any
spilled liquids.
