Environment and safety
Reductant
Reductant (AdBlue/DEF) is used in the reductant
tank on engines equipped with an SCR system.
Avoid contact with the skin.
If reductant comes in contact with the skin: Wash
with soap and plenty of water. If reductant
splashes in the eyes: Rinse immediately with
plenty of water. Contact a doctor if it is ingested
or causes skin irritations.
Safety precautions for inspection
and repair
Switch off the engine
Always switch off the engine before carrying out
inspections and repairs, unless otherwise indicat-
ed.
Make it impossible to start the engine: Remove
any starter key, or cut the power using the main
power switch or battery master switch and lock
them.
Fix a warning plate somewhere appropriate,
showing that work is being carried out on the en-
gine.
Working with a running engine always poses a
safety risk. Parts of the body, clothes or dropped
tools can get caught in rotating parts and cause
injury.
Hot surfaces and fluids
There is always a risk of sustaining burns when
an engine is hot. Particularly hot parts are ex-
haust manifolds, turbochargers, oil sumps, hot
coolant and oil in pipes and hoses.
Lift the engine out
Always use the engine lifting eyes. Always
check that lifting devices are in good condition
and are designed to lift the weight.
Optional equipment on the engine can change
the centre of gravity. This means that it may be
necessary to use additional lifting devices to bal-
ance the engine correctly and lift it safely.
Never work underneath a suspended engine!
