The machine engine
■
Never touch the hot parts of the engine,
-
particularly the exhaust. If a special operation
has to be performed on the engine, wait for the
latter to cool down.
The engine factory setting corresponds to the
-
conditions of the production site (fuel,
temperature, altitude, etc.). On machine
takeover, check the engine rotation speed and
correct if necessary.
Regularly take engine rotation speed
-
measurements, particularly after reassembling
the machine. Correct if necessary.
Never exceed the speed stipulated in the
-
technical characteristics.
After launching with a starter, do not forget to
-
put the engine back in normal position.
Do not wind the launch rope around your hand
-
or release it suddenly.
After starting, if machine operation is not
-
satisfactory, stop the engine and alert the
maintenance manager.
For petrol engines, only use spark plugs, the
-
end of which conforms to sketch 1 opposite.
If a nut is used, ensure it is properly locked in
place. After reassembling the spark plug, check
that its cap is in good condition and secured
properly onto the spark plug. Generally
speaking, check the fastening to ensure, that
under no conditions, sparks can be generated.
Using trucks
(if applicable)
■
A machine designed to work on a truck must
-
not be used without it. The truck then forms an
integral part of the machine.
- The machine and truck must not be separated
in their use.
- All trucks, use of which is dedicated to a
machine, must not be used as a means of
transporting equipment or personnel or be
attached to a vehicle.
- Before installing the machine on its truck, it
must first be positioned correctly on the track
so that it can run freely. If the track is sloping,
ensure that the truck is locked in position when
the machine is placed on and taken off the track.
- Caution: the truck takes up the entire width of
the track and may cause leg injuries in event of
a collision.
