Use the lifting eyes mounted on the engine/re-
verse gear when lifting the drive unit.
Always check that lifting equipment is in good
condition and has sufficient load capacity to lift
the engine (engine weight including reverse
gear and any extra equipment installed).
To ensure safe handling and to avoid
damaging engine components on top of the
engine, use a lifting beam to raise the engine.
All chains and cables should run parallel to
each other and as perpendicular as possible in
relation to the top of the engine.
If extra equipment is installed on the engine al-
tering its center of gravity, a special lifting de-
vice is required to achieve the correct balance
for safe handling.
Never carry out work on an engine suspended
on a hoist.
When working on-board ensure that there is
sufficient space to remove components
without danger of injury or damage.
Components in the electrical system, ignition
system (gasoline engines) and fuel system
on Volvo Penta products are designed and
constructed to minimize the risk of fire and
explosion. The engine must not be run in
areas where there are explosive materials.
Always use fuels recommended by Volvo
Penta. Refer to the Instruction Book. The use
of lower quality fuels can damage the
engine. On a diesel engine poor quality fuel
can cause the control rod to seize and the
engine to over-rev with the resulting risk of
damage to the engine and personal injury.
Poor fuel quality can also lead to higher
maintenance costs.
Never remove heavy components alone, even
where secure lifting equipment such as
secured blocks are being used. Even where
lifting equipment is being used it is best to carry
out the work with two people; one to operate
the lifting equipment and the other to ensure
that components are not trapped and damaged
when being lifted.
