Warning – risk of oil mist explosion during maintenance work
Safe operation is conditional on no explosive atmosphere escaping into the
engine room. An explosive atmosphere that escapes can cause a risk of
explosion.
Only carry out maintenance and repair work when the engine is stopped.
The power and compressed air supply must be switched off before starting
maintenance and repair work.
Also familiarise yourself with the basic safety instructions for working with the
oil mist detector.
Section 2.4 Basic safety instructions
If the oil mist detector is operated in explosion-proof areas, the relevant safety
instructions must be observed.
Section 2.4.1 Safety instructions for potentially
explosive atmospheres
The measuring track area on the sensor unit is cleaned completely as follows:

• Clean the sealing surface of the “inspection cover”
• Position and fit the new seal on the cleaned sealing surface
• Fit the inspection cover on the seal and then secure it in place
