SAFETY HIGH VOLTAGE When the engine is running or immediately after it has stopped, high voltage is generated at the injector terminal and inside the engine con- troller, so there is danger of electrocution. Never touch the injector terminal or the inside of the engine controller. If it is necessary to touch the injector terminal or the inside of the engine controller, please contact your Komatsu distributor.
