Hazards during operation and maintenance 
2.7 
Mechanical hazards during operation 
During normal operation, no mechanical hazards emanate from the turbo-
charger if it has been installed properly. 
 
 
Contact with rotating parts can lead to serious injuries. The turbo-
charger must never be operated without a filter silencer or an air suction 
branch. When the engine is at a standstill, the rotor can turn on its own 
because of stack draught. 
 Operate the turbocharger in accordance with instructions. 
 During maintenance work, secure the rotor against unintentional ro-
tation.  
 
Mechanical hazards when working on the turbocharger 
During maintenance work, various risks can occur through the improper 
handling of components, through the non-observance of work instructions, 
due to inadequate care or as a consequence of insufficient training. 
 
 
Severe injuries to personnel or fatal accidents can be caused by me-
chanical influences as a consequence of hazardous and inadequate 
operational procedures. 
 Observe the general rules for occupational safety and prevention of 
accidents. 
 Ensure workplace safety.
