Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids. Refer to Special Publication, PERJ1017, "Dealer Service Tool Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids on Cat® products. Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates. |
This fuel system may contain high-pressure fuel for extended periods after engine shutdown. Do not open the high-pressure fuel system without first releasing the high-pressure fuel from the system. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "High-Pressure Fuel System - Pressure Release" to properly release fuel pressure. Exposure to high-pressure fuel may result in personal injury. |
NOTICE |
