CAUTION
Insufficient information may cause accidents. If two or more persons
are working simultaneously in the same area, make sure that each one
of them is aware of the operation carried out by the others. Before
starting the engine, push away the other persons from the risky areas
(rotary blades and engine belt, tools and movements, engine inner and
rear part). The lack of taking following precautions can cause heavy
accidents even death.
b
DANGER
Do not smoke during refuelling or while working on the engine. Carry
out refuelling with engine shut off. Should the precautions not be taken
under due consideration, fires and injuries may occur.
S
CAUTION
A frozen battery may blow up if used or charged; do not start a yacht
with frozen battery. To prevent the battery from freezing keep it always
completely charged.
b
DANGER
The battery releases explosive gas: do not approach flames or
sparkles nor smoke near it. If the battery is used or charged in a closed
area, check for good ventilation. Do not check the battery charge by
short-circuiting the terminals with metal tools: use a density gauge or a
voltmeter.
S
CAUTION
Do not remove the tank filling plug when the engine activated,
because the hydraulic installation under pressure may cause injuries.
Before releasing pressure, stop the engine.
S
CAUTION
The spilling of hydraulic oil under pressure may cause injuries: before
disconnecting or connecting the hoses, stop the engine and operate the
controls to release the residual pressure. Prevent the engine start when
the hoses are disconnected.
