Store fuels and lubricants in correctly marked
containers away from unauthorized persons. Store
oily rags and any flammable materials in protective
containers. Do not smoke in areas that are used for
storing flammable materials.
Do not expose the engine to any flame.
Exhaust shields (if equipped) protect hot exhaust
components from oil or fuel spray if there was a line,
a tube, or a seal failure. Exhaust shields must be
installed correctly.
Do not weld on lines or tanks that contain flammable
fluids. Do not flame cut lines or tanks that contain
flammable fluid. Clean any such lines or tanks
thoroughly with a nonflammable solvent prior to
welding or flame cutting.
Wiring must be kept in good condition. Ensure that all
electrical wires are correctly installed and securely
attached. Check all electrical wires daily. Repair any
wires that are loose or frayed before you operate the
engine. Clean all electrical connections and tighten
all electrical connections.
Eliminate all wiring that is unattached or
unnecessary. Do not use any wires or cables that are
smaller than the recommended gauge. Do not
bypass any fuses and/or circuit breakers.
Arcing or sparking could cause a fire. Secure
connections, recommended wiring, and correctly
maintained battery cables will help to prevent arcing
or sparking.
Tout contact avec du carburant sous haute pres-
sion présente des risques de pénétration percu-
tanée et de brûlure. Des projections de carburant
sous haute pression peuvent déclencher un in-
cendie. Le non respect des consignes de contrôle
et d'entretien peut entraîner des blessures, voire
la mort.
After the engine has stopped, you must wait for 10
minutes to allow the fuel pressure to be purged from
the high-pressure fuel lines before any service or
repair is performed on the engine fuel lines. The 10
minute wait will also allow static charge to dissipate
from the low-pressure fuel system.
Ensure that the engine is stopped. Inspect all lines
and hoses for wear or for deterioration. Ensure that
the hoses are correctly routed. The lines and hoses
must have adequate support and secure clamps. If
any fuel lines or fuel hoses become kinked, the fuel
line or fuel hose must be replaced. Refer to the
Disassembly and Assembly manual for more
information.
Prévention des incendies ou des explosions
Oil filters and fuel filters must be correctly installed.
The filter housings must be tightened to the correct
torque. Refer to the Disassembly and Assembly
manual for more information.

Use caution when you are refueling an engine. Do
not smoke while you are refueling an engine. Do not
refuel an engine near open flames or sparks. Always
stop the engine before refueling.
Avoid static electricity risk when fueling. Ultra-low
Sulfur Diesel fuel (ULSD fuel) poses a greater static
ignition hazard than earlier diesel formulations with a
higher sulfur content. Avoid death or serious injury
from fire or explosion. Consult your fuel or fuel
system supplier to ensure that the delivery system is
in compliance with fueling standards for proper
grounding and bonding practices.
