1.2.3 Working on the engine

1.2.4 Maintenance work on electric components and battery

General – Concerning your safety
Drain the hydraulic oil at operating temperature – danger of
scalding!
Any hydraulic oil must be collected and disposed of in an environ-
mentally friendly way.
Always collect and dispose of hydraulic oils separately.
Do not start the engine after draining off the hydraulic oil. Once all
work is completed (with the system still depressurized!) check all
connections and fittings for leaks.
Hydraulic hoses must be visually inspected at regular intervals.
Do not mix up hoses by mistake.
Only genuine BOMAG replacement hydraulic hoses ensure that
the correct hose type (pressure range) is used at the right location.
Do not work on the fuel system while the engine is running -
danger to life due to high pressures!
Wait until the engine has stopped, then wait another approx. 15
minutes.
Keep out of the danger zone during the initial test run.
In case of leaks return to the workshop immediately.
Make sure that the engine cannot be accidently started during
service and repair work.
Drain the engine oil at operating temperature – danger of scalding!
Wipe off spilled oil, collect leaking oil and dispose of it in an envi-
ronmentally friendly way.
Store used filters and other oil contaminated materials in a sepa-
rate, specially marked container and dispose of them in an environ-
mentally friendly way.
Do not leave any tools or other objects, that could cause damage,
in the engine compartment.
The settings for idle speed and highest speed must not be
changed, since this would affect the exhaust gas values and cause
damage to engine and power train.
Engine and exhaust system work with high temperatures. Keep
combustible materials away and do not touch any hot surfaces.
Check and change coolant only when the engine is cold. Collect
coolant and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way.
Before starting to work on electric parts of the machine disconnect
the battery and cover it with insulating material.
Do not use fuses with higher ampere ratings and do not bridge
fuses - fire hazard!
