Fuel circuit
Avoid using the engine with only a small reserve of fuel in the fuel tank;
this encourages the formation of condensation and makes it more
likely you will suck up dirt or air, resulting in engine stoppage.
The common rail injection system does not require air to be bled from
the fuel circuit.
Air intake and exhaust discharge circuits
Inspect the cleanliness of the air intake circuit on a regular basis. The
maintenance intervals indicated in this manual vary according to the
conditions in which the engine is used.
In particularly dusty environments it is necessary to carry out
maintenance at more frequent intervals than indicated in the chapter
CONTROLS AND MAINTENANCE.
Electrical starter system
Periodically check, particularly during the winter, to ensure that the
batteries are clean and in full working order, checking and topping up
as indicated in the chapter CONTROLS AND MAINTENANCE.
Should it be necessary to replace the batteries, always respect the
capacity and minimum discharge current intensity requirements.
CAUTION!
When refuelling, always pay great care to ensure that no
solid or liquid pollutants enter the fuel tank; you must also
remember that smoking and live flames are prohibited
when refuelling.
CAUTION!
Never loosen the high pressure fuel circuit connectors in
any way.
CAUTION!
Visually check that the exhaust circuit is not blocked or
damaged, so as to prevent dangerous fumes.
WARNING!
Contact a specialised workshop and check battery and recharging
system efficiency if the voltmeter indicates a voltage below 11 V (for
12 V rated systems), or 22 V (for 24 V rated systems).
