– Never smoke or allow sparks orflames (such as pilot lights, electri-
cal switches, or welding equip-
ment) in the work area. Never allow
diesel fuel to spill onto a hot ex-
haust manifold which can cause a
fire.
∙ Depending on the circumstance, die- sel fuel is flammable. When inspect-
ing or performing service or repairs
on the fuel system, to reduce the pos-
sibility of fire and resulting severe
personal injury, death, or property
damage, never smoke or allow sparks
or flames (such as pilot lights, electri-
cal switches, or welding equipment) in
the work area.
∙ Do not vent the fuel system on a hot engine; this can cause fuel to spill
onto a hot exhaust manifold, which
can cause a fire.
∙ Batteries can emit explosive gases. To reduce the possibility of personal in-
jury, always ventilate the compart-
ment before servicing the batteries.
To reduce the possibility of arcing, re-
move the negative (-) battery cable
first and attach the negative (-) bat-
tery cable last. ∙ When using a steam cleaner, wear
safety glasses or a face shield, as well
as protective clothing. Hot steam can
cause serious personal injury.
∙ Wear appropriate eye and face pro- tection when using compressed air.
Flying debris and dirt can cause per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION
Clean all around the filter area before
disassembly. Dirt or contaminants can
damage the fuel system.
