3363844 - Introduction - ENGINE
CAUTION
All operations should be carried out taking
great care to avoid injury to persons.The engine compartment contains numerous
moving parts, components at high temperatures and electrical wiring
with voltage. Follow these precautions scrupulously when carrying
out operations in the engine compartment:
- turn off the engine and wait for it to cool down
- do not smoke.
- no naked flames
- Make sure that there is a fire extinguisher in the vicinity.
For some procedures, the use of special
tools is indicated. The use of these tools is vital in order to
work safely.Follow the safety instructions in force
for workshop procedures. Where necessary, the Manual contains specific warnings
to prevent the risk of dangerous situations.When using chemicals, closely follow the
safety instructions given on the safety sheet which the supplier
must give the user.The electronic ignition system generates
voltages of 20,000 V and higher which could be very dangerous to people,
especially if they suffer from a heart condition. Great care should
be taken when working on this system or near its components.WARNINGS
All the operations must be carried out with
the utmost attention and care to avoid damaging the components.Before any interventions on electrical components, including
battery disconnection, make sure that the ignition is off ('STOP'
position).In order to release parts which are sticking,
tap lightly using an aluminium or lead hammer if iron materials
are involved: use a wooden or resin hammer for light alloy parts.
use a wooden or resin hammer for light alloy parts. During dismantling, check that parts which
have to be marked carry reference marks.When refitting, lubricate the parts, where
necessary, to prevent sticking or seizing during the initial operating period.
During refitting, it is essential to observe the tightening torques
and adjustment data.During each refitting, replace the gaskets,
oil seals, spring washers, safety plates, self-locking nuts, pre-treated
bolts and all components which have deteriorated.Protect adequately with adhesive tape or
clean rags those parts of the engine which, remaining uncovered
following dismantling, offer entry passages to dust or foreign bodies.The replacement of removed assemblies or
components should be carried out using genuine spare parts only:
this is the only way that the interchangeability and perfect operation
of the various components can be guaranteed.Before any interventions on components of
the fuel system, discharge the pressure in the system using tool
N. 1.870.684.000 connected to the specific valve located on the
fuel distribution manifold.
