General safety precautions If your skin comes into contact with high-pressure fuel, obtain medical assistance immediately. These safety precautions are important. You must refer also to the local regulations in the country of use. Some items only refer to specific applications. Diesel fuel and lubricating oil (especially used lubricating oil) can damage the skin of certain persons. Protect your hands with gloves or a special solution to protect the skin. Only use these engines in the type of application for which they have been designed. Do not change the specification of the engine. Do not wear clothing which is contaminated by lubricating oil.

Do not put material which is contaminated with oil into the pockets of clothing. Do not smoke when you put fuel in the tank. Clean away fuel which has been spilt. Material which has been contaminated by fuel must be moved to a safe place. Discard used lubricating oil in accordance with local regulations to prevent contamination. Use extreme care if emergency repairs must be made at sea or in adverse conditions. Do not put fuel in the tank while the engine runs (unless it is absolutely necessary). The combustible material of some components of the engine (for example certain seals) can become extremely dangerous if it is burned.

Never allow this burnt material to come into contact with the skin or with the eyes. Do not clean, add lubricating oil, or adjust the engine while it runs (unless you have had the correct training; even then extreme care must be used to prevent injury). Always close the seacock before the removal of any component of the auxiliary water circuit. Do not make adjustments that you do not understand. Ensure that the engine does not run in a location where it can cause a concentration of toxic emissions. Wear a face mask if the glass fibre cover of the turbocharger is to be removed or fitted.

Other persons must be kept at a safe distance while the engine, auxiliary equipment or boat is in operation. Always use a safety cage to protect the operator when a component is to be pressure tested in a container of water. Fit safety wires to secure the plugs which seal the hose connections of a component which is to be pressure tested. Do not permit loose clothing or long hair near moving parts. Do not allow compressed air to contact your skin. If compressed air enters your skin, obtain medical help immediately. Keep away from moving parts during engine operation. Warning! Some moving parts cannot be seen clearly while the engine runs.

Do not operate the engine if a safety guard has been removed. Do not remove the filler cap or any component of the cooling system while the engine is hot and while the coolant is under pressure, because dangerous hot coolant can be discharged. Do not use salt water or any other coolant which can cause corrosion in the closed circuit of the cooling system. Do not allow sparks or fire near the batteries (especially when the batteries are on charge) because the gases from the electrolyte are highly flammable. The battery fluid is dangerous to the skin and especially to the eyes. Disconnect the battery terminals before a repair is made to the electrical system.

Only one person must control the engine. Ensure that the engine is operated only from the control panel or from the operators position.
