IMPORTANT INFORMATION
When working on the engine, e.g. when adjusting the belts, changing oil or adjusting the clutch it is
important that the engine does not start. The engine may be damaged but above all there is -
!
SERIOUS RISK OF INJURY.
For this reason, always secure the starting device or disconnect a battery cable
before working on the engine.
This is especially important if the engine has a remote starter or automatic starting.
This warning symbol and text is reproduced beside those maintenance points where it is
especially important to consider the risk of injury.

  • Page 4: Environmental Responsibility

    ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY Scania has always been at the forefront in the development and production of environmentally safe engines. We have made great progress in reducing harmful exhaust emissions to be able to meet the stringent emission standards that are mandatory for almost all markets.
  • Page 5: Certified Engines

    European (EU) and non-European (USA) markets. Scania guarantees that all engines of a certified engine type that are delivered, correspond to the engine approved for certification. The engine is fitted with a certification plate, stating according to which certification rules (standard) the engine has been approved.

    OF INJURY. The safety precautions that must be observed in the operation and maintenance of Scania engines are compiled on the following three pages. The corresponding text is also often stated next to the maintenance step concerned, shown with different degrees of significance as described above.
  • Page 7: Safety Precautions For Operation

    The exhaust emissions contain carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides that are toxic. When operating the engine in an enclosed ar- ea, an effective extraction device for exhaust gases and crankcase gases must be used. https://www.boat-manuals.com/scania/ 2001-05:1 © Scania Industrial & Marine Engines...
