FIRE PREVENTION
- CAUTION -
Stop the machine immediately if an alarm lights up in
the cab. Contact your DIECI service centre and do not
operate the machine until the fault has been repaired.
- Before every work cycle, ensure there are no leaks from
the machine; fuel, oil, grease or lubricants in general can
start res and cause serious injury.
- Regularly check there are no loose or missing clamps,
no twisted hoses or hoses that are rubbing together.
- Do not bend any pipes under pressure. Never install da-
maged pipes.
- Remove inammable materials such as fuel, oil, grease,
waste, deposits, accumulated dust or any other compo-
nents that can start a re.
- Avoid short circuits; they can cause res.
- Regularly clean and secure all electrical connections.
Before every work shift, ensure there are no twisted,
hardened or damaged electricity cables. If there is a mal-
function, do not start the machine and contact a DIECI
service centre.
- Regularly check the ignition switch. A fault when stop-
ping the engine will obstruct the work of the re brigade.
- When cleaning parts with oil, use non-inflammable oil.
Diesel and petrol fuel can catch re. Do not use.
- Do not weld or use a cutting torch to cut pipes that con-
tain inammable liquids.
- When checking the level of fuel, oil, battery electrolyte,
windscreen wiper liquid or coolant, always use an ex-
plosion proof light source. If other types of lighting are
used, there is a risk of explosion.
