E4251 EN 02/2001 2002 Bantam
Do not rely on the generator to restore a discharged
battery. For a generator to recharge a battery, it would
take in excess of eight hours continuous driving with
no additional loads placed on the battery.
Component Cleaning
To prevent ingress of dirt, accumulations of loose dirt
and greasy deposits should be removed before
disconnecting or dismantling components or
assemblies.
Components should be thoroughly cleaned before
inspection prior to reassembly.
Cleaning Methods:
• dry cleaning
• removal of loose dirt with soft or cable brushes
• scraping dirt off with a piece of metal or wood
• wiping off with a rag
CAUTION: Compressed air is sometimes 'wet'
so use with caution, especially on hydraulic
systems.
• blowing dirt off with compressed air. (Eye
protection must be worn when using this method)
• removal of dry dust using vacuum equipment. This
method should always be used to remove friction
lining material dust (asbestos particles)
• steam cleaning
WARNING: Most solvents require careful
handling and some are harmful.
Refer to Health and Safety Precautions
and to the manufacturers literature for
safety precautions. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
Various solvents are available which are suitable for
component cleaning. Some components such as
brake hydraulic parts and electrical assemblies should
be cleaned only with recommended solvents —
refer to Solvents, Sealers and Adhesives or to
the section of the manual relevant to the component.
Calibration of Essential Measuring Equipment
WARNING: Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury or
damage to components.
It is of fundamental importance that certain essential
equipment, for example torque wrenches, multimeters,
exhaust gas analysers or rolling roads, are regularly
calibrated in accordance with the manufacturers
instructions.
