GENERAL ± Precautions Before Service00-28
Other precautions:
Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves
where practicable.
Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with
oil.
Do not put oily rags in pockets, the use of overalls without
pockets will avoid this.
Do not wear heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated
foot-wear. Overalls must be cleaned regularly and kept
separately from personal clothing.
Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should
be worn, for example, chemical goggles or face shields;
in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.
Obtain First Aid treatment immediately for open cuts and
wounds.
Wash regularly with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed, especially before meals (skin cleansers and
nail brushes will help). After cleaning, the application of
preparations containing lanolin to replace the natural skin
oils is advised.
Do not use petrol, kerosine, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners
or solvents for cleaning skin.
Use barrier creams, applying them before each work
period, to help the removal of oil from the skin after work.
If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without
delay.

Health Warning
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil
will result in the removal of natural fats from the
skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis.
In addition, used engine oil contains potentiallyharmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
Adequate means of skin protection and washing
facilities must be provided.
Recommended Precautions
The most effective precaution is to adapt working
practices which prevent, as far as practicable, the
risk of skin contact with mineral oils, for example
by using enclosed systems for handling used engine
oil and by degreasing components, where
practicable, before handling them.
Other precautions:
Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
Wear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where practicable.
Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly
underpants, with oil.
Do not put oily rags in pockets, the use of
overalls without pockets will avoid this.
Do not wear heavily soiled clothing and
oil-impregnated foot-wear. Overalls must be
cleaned regularly and kept separate from
personal clothing.Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye
protection should be worn, for example,
chemical goggles or face shields; in addition
an eye wash facility should be provided.

ENGINE COOLING ±
General Information/
Service Specifications/Lubricant/Sealants14-2
GENERAL INFORMATION14100010125
The cooling system is designed to keep every part
of the engine at appropriate temperature in
whatever condition the engine may be operated.
The cooling method is of the water-cooled, pressure
forced circulation type in which the water pump
pressurizes coolant and circulates it throughout the
engine. If the coolant temperature exceeds the
prescribed temperature, the thermostat opens to
circulate the coolant through the radiator as well
so that the heat absorbed by the coolant may be
radiated into the air.The water pump is of the centrifugal type and is
driven by the drive belt from the crankshaft.
The radiator is the corrugated fin, down flow type.
