NOTICE
Extreme cleanliness must be maintained when work-
ing on the fuel system, since even tiny particles can
cause engine or fuel system problems.
The entire engine should be washed with a high-
pressure water system. The high-pressure water
system will remove dirt and loose debris before
starting a repair on the fuel system. Ensure that no
high-pressure water is directed at the injectors.

When possible, the service area must be positively
pressurized. Ensure that the components are not
exposed to contamination from airborne dirt and
debris. When a component is removed from the
system, the exposed fuel connections must be closed
off immediately with suitable sealing plugs. The
sealing plugs should only be removed when the
component is reconnected. The sealing plugs must
not be reused. Dispose of the sealing plugs
immediately after use. Contact your nearest Perkins
dealer or your nearest approved Perkins distributor in
order to obtain the correct sealing plugs.
