Exhaust gases
DANGER
Risk to health from exhaust gases!
Exhaust gases from internal combustion engines are
harmful to your health. In particular, the soot particles
contained in the diesel exhaust gas can cause can-
cer. When the internal combustion engine is running,
there is a risk of poisoning from the CO, CH and NOx
components contained in the exhaust gas.
Modern exhaust gas treatment systems (e.g. catalyt-
ic converters, particle filters or comparable systems)
can clean exhaust gases in a way that reduces the
health hazard and risk of poisoning when operating
the truck.
– Always observe the national laws and regulations
of the country of use when using trucks with an
internal combustion engine in entirely or partially
enclosed working areas.
– Always ensure that there is sufficient ventilation
available.
Heat
DANGER
Risk of burns due to hot exhaust gases!
Exhaust gases or components that carry
exhaust gases (e.g. exhaust pipes) can
become so hot that direct body contact
can cause burns to the skin and materi-
als that are too close can be burnt or
singed.
– Do not grasp or touch hot exhaust
pipes.
– Keep combustible materials away
from the exhaust pipe.
– In the event of burns, seek first aid
immediately.
– If materials are burning, take appro-
priate fire protection measures imme-
diately.
