Precautionary measures before beginning of maintenance work
Before starting any maintenance work on the engine (particularly on the running
gear), take the following precautionary measures:
⇒
Close the shut-off valves on the starting air bottles.
⇒
Close all the shut-off valves in the control air supply unit, and open the drain on
the air bottle until it is depressurized.
⇒
Close by hand the (automatic) shut-off valve for starting air and open the vent
and drain valve to the main starting air piping on the engine as well as the vent
valves on the shut-off valve for starting air, and leave them in this position until
maintenance work is completed.
⇒
Open all indicator cocks on the cylinder covers and leave them in this position
until maintenance work is completed.
⇒
Engage turning gear (gear pinion must be in engaged position) and lock the
lever (see also 3206
−
1 and 0750
−
1 in the Operating Manual).
D
Where the engine has been stopped due to overheated running gear or
bearings, wait at least 20 minutes before opening the crankcase doors.
D
The crankcase doors must always be locked with all the clamps when-
ever the engine is running
, even if this is only for a short time in order to
make temperature checks (e.g. after changing bearings during an overhaul,
etc.).
D
In the case of a fire in the engine having been extinguished by means of CO
2
,
the spaces affected must be well ventilated before work can be carried out
within them.
Attention!
When performing electric welding near or on the engine, electromag-
netic fields or peak voltage may occur, which may damage the electronic compo-
nents of the WECS (

ystem).
Therefore, prior to performing electric welding in the vicinity of the mentioned com-
ponents, the following precautions must be taken:
D
Stop the engine if it is in operation.
D
Power off the electronic system and wait one minute.
D
If the welding point is within a radius of two metres from an electronic module
and/or a sensor, disconnect the modules and/or sensors.
D
Close the covers of all electric boxes and protect cables, sensors, etc. against
sparking and heat.
D
Shield the check and control units with a conductive material and connect
them to earth.
D
Run the welding cable from the welding apparatus directly to the welding point
without any unnecessary loops; also, avoid leading the welding cable parallel
to cables of the electronic control unit.
