Engine Repair Parts
WARNING: Before beginning any adjustments
or repairs, place a DO NOT OPERATE tag in
the operator’s compartment and on the con-
trols, and disconnect the battery negative
cable.
• DO NOT operate, clean, lubricate or adjust
the engine without proper training.
• NEVER attempt to perform an adjustment or
repair that is not understood.
• Before servicing, relieve pressure in fuel, oil,
coolant and hydraulic lines. Obtain medical
assistance immediately if a high-pressure jet
of fuel, oil, coolant or hydraulic fluid strikes the
skin.
• DO NOT permit loose clothing, hair, etc., near
moving parts.
• Keep
away
from parts which rotate; fan
blades can appear invisible when the fan is
rotating.
• To help prevent burns, avoid contact with com-
ponents that remain hot after power is turned
off or disconnected.
• Some of the gaskets on the engine obtain
asbestos. Breathing asbestos dust is danger-
ous to health and may cause severe bodily
harm. Avoid creating dust and follow local
directives for handling and disposing of mate-
rials that contain asbestos.
WARNING: Always use factory-approved fas-
teners and parts. DO NOT use other than fac-
tory-approved fasteners and parts when
replacement is necessary.
