● Please read and observe the information given in this Operation Manual. This will enable you to avoid accidents, preserve the manufacturer’s warranty and maintain the engine in peak operating condition. ● This engine has been built exclusively for the application specified in the scope of supply, as described by the equipment manu- facturer and is to be used only for the intended purpose. Any use exceeding that scope is considered to be contrary to the intended purpose. The manufacturer will not assume responsibility for any damage resulting therefrom. The risks involved are to be borne solely by the user. ● Use in accordance with the intended pur- pose also implies compliance with the con- ditions laid down by the manufacturer for operation, maintenance and servicing. The engine should only be operated by person- nel trained in its use and the hazards in- volved. ● The relevant accident prevention guidelines and other generally accepted safety and industrial hygiene regulations must be ob- served. ● When the engine is running, there is a risk of injury through: - turning/hot components - engines with positive ignition - ignition systems (high electrical voltage) You must avoid contact at all times! ● Unauthorized engine modifications will in- validate any liability claims against the manu- facturer for resultant damage. Manipulations of the injection and regulating system may also influence the performance of the engine, and its emissions. Adherence to legislation on pollution cannot be guaran- teed under such conditions. ● Do not change, convert or adjust the cooling air intake area to the blower. The manufacturer shall not be held respon- sible for any damage which results from such work. ● When carrying out maintenance/repair op- erations on the engine, the use of DEUTZ original parts is prescribed. These are spe- cially designed for your engine and guaran- tee perfect operation. Non-compliance results in the expiry of the warranty! ● Maintenance and cleaning of the engine should only be carried out when the engine is switched off and has cooled down. You must ensure that the electrical systems have been switched off and the ignition key has been removed. Accident prevention guidelines concerning electrical systems (e.g. VDE-0100/-0101/- 0104/-0105 Electrical protective measures against dangerous touch voltage) are to be observed. When cleaning with fluids, all electrical com- ponents are to be covered impermeably. Safety guidelines / Accident prevention
