Warnings
The following list contains some general WARNINGS that you should follow when you
work on equipment:
•
Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
•
Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires you to be under the equipment.
•
Be sure that the battery is disconnected from the truck using the battery discon-
nect, unless otherwise required by the procedure.
•
Set the parking brake when working on the equipment. Place wood blocks (4” x 4”
or larger) to the front and rear surfaces of the tires to provide further restraint from
inadvertent equipment movement.
•
Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid the danger of carbon
monoxide.
•
Keep yourself and your clothing away from moving parts when the engine is run-
ning, especially the fan and belts.
•
To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator,
exhaust manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
•
Do not smoke while working on the equipment.
•
To avoid injury, always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry, and loose
clothing before beginning to work on the equipment. Tie long hair securely behind
the head.
•
Keep hands and other objects clear of the radiator and blades. Electric cooling
fan(s) can start to operate at any time by an increase in under hood temperatures,
even though the ignition is in the OFF position. Therefore, care should be taken to
ensure the electric cooling fan(s) are completely disconnected when working under
the hood.
Important Safety Notice
Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for the safe,
reliable operation of all industrial engines as well as the personal safety of the individ-
ual performing the work. This Service Manual provides general directions for accom-
plishing service and repair work with tested and effective techniques. Following them
will help assure reliability.
There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools and parts for servicing
equipment, as well as in the skill of the individual doing the work. This Manual cannot
possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or cautions as to each.
Accordingly, anyone who departs from the instructions provided in this Manual must
first establish he compromises his/her personal safety, and/or the equipment integrity
by his/her choice of methods, tools or parts.
