2.2.3 Precautions
Suitable precautions must be taken to protect those parts whose preservation and operation could be damaged by paints such
as:
- rubber o r plastic pipes for th e air an d hydraulic installations;
- gaskets, parts in rubber or plastic;
- flanges of the transmission shafts or power take-offs;
-radiators;
- shock absorber and hydraulic or air cylinder rods;
- drainage and bleeder valves (mechanical components, air tanks, cold starting heater plug pre -heating tanks etc.);
- fuel sediment filter;
- nameplates an d logos.
With particular regard to the engine and its electric and elect ronic components, adequate precautions s hall be taken to protect:
- on the whole engine and vehicle wiring, including earth contacts;
- on all con nectors on sensor/actuator side and wiring side;
- on all sensors/actuators, on flywheel, on flywheel rev sensor bracket;
- on t he whole diesel fuel sy stem pipes (plastic and metallic);
- on c omplete diesel fuel filter base;
- on control unit and control unit base;
- on t he whole soundproofing c over inner side (injectors, rail, pipes);
- on common rail pump including regulator;
- on vehicle electric pump;
- on tank;
- on front belt circuit and relevant pulleys;
- on power steering pump and relevant piping.
If the wheels are removed, protect the contact surfaces on the hubs, avoid increasing the thickness and especially avoid the build-up
of paint on the connecting flanges of the wheel disks and resting points of the fixing nuts.
Ensure that the disc brakes are adequately protected.
The electronic components and modules must be removed.
!
When the painting operation is to be completed by oven drying (max. temp. 80ºC), all parts which may
be damaged by exposure to heat, must be removed.
