SEBU7901-01 7 Safety Section Safety Messages g01245647 Illustration 2 Location of safety messages on C13 engine There may be several specific safety messages on your engine. The exact location and a description of the safety messages are reviewed in this section. Please become familiar with all safety messages. Ensure that all of the safety messages are legible. Clean the safety messages or replace the safety messages if the words cannot be read or if the illustrations are not visible. Use a cloth, water, and soap to clean the safety messages. Do not use solvents, gasoline, or other harsh chemicals.

Solvents, gasoline, or harsh chemicals could loosen the adhesive that secures the safety messages. The safety messages that are loosened could drop off of the engine. g00934493 Illustration 3 Replace any safety message that is damaged or missing. If a safety message is attached to a part of the engine that is replaced, install a new safety message on the replacement part. Your Caterpillar dealer can provide new safety messages. Do not operate or work on this engine unless you have read and understand the instructions and warnings in the Operation and Maintenance Man- ual. Failure to follow the instructions or heed the warnings could result in injury or death.

Contact any Caterpillar dealer for replacement manuals. Proper care is your responsibility. Universal Warning (1) The safety messages for the universal warning are located toward the front of the engine on both sides of the valve cover base.
