WARNING SIGNS
• Lombardini engines are built to provide safe and
longlasting performances, but in order to obtain these
results it is essential that the maintenance requirements
described in the manual are observed along with the
following safety recommendations.
• The engine has been built to the specifications of a
machine manufacturer, and it is his responsibility to
ensure that all necessary action is taken to meet the
essential and legally prescribed health and safety
requirements. Any use of the machine other than that
described cannot be considered as complying with its
intended purpose as specified by Lombardini, which
therefore declines all responsibility for accidents
caused by such operations.
• The following instructions are intended for the user of
the machine in order to reduce or eliminate risks,
especially those concerning the operation and standard
maintenance of the engine.
• The user should read these instructions carefully and
get to know the operations described. By not doing so
he may place at risk his own health and safety and that
of anyone else in the vicinity of the machine.
• The engine may be used or mounted on a machine only
by personnel suitably trained in its operation and aware
of the dangers involved. This is particularly true for
standard and, above all, special maintenance work.
For special maintenance contact personnel trained
specifically by Lombardini. This work should be carried
out in accordance with existing literature.
• Lombardini declines all responsibility for accidents or
for failure to comply with the requirements of law if

DANGER
By not respecting these directions the user may place at
risk persons and objects.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
changes are made to the engine's functional
parameters or to the fuel flow rate adjustments and
speed of rotation, if seals are removed, or if parts not
described in the operating and maintenance manual
are removed and reassembled by unauthorized
personnel.
• In addition to all other machine specifications, ensure
that the engine is in a near horizontal position when
starting. lf starting manually, ensure that the necessary
operations can be performed without any risk of
striking against walls or dangerous objects. Rope
starting (except for recoil rope starting) is not permitted
even in emergencies.
• Check that the machine is stable so that there is no
risk of it overturning.
• Get to know the engine speed adjustment and machine
stop operations.
• Do not start the machine in closed or poorly ventilated
environments. The internal combustion process
generates carbon monoxide, an odourless and highly
toxic gas, so spending too long a time in an environment
where the engine discharges its exhaust products
freely can lead to loss of consciousness and even
death.
• The engine may not be used in environments
containing flammable materials, explosive
atmospheres or easily combustible powders, unless
adequate and specific precautions have been taken
and are clearly stated and certified for the machine.
• To prevent the risk of fire, keep the machine at a
distance of at least one metre from buildings or other
CAUTION
By not respecting these directions the user can cause technical
damage to the unit and/or to the installation.
machines.
• Children and animals must be kept at a sufficient
distance from the machine to prevent any danger
resulting from its operation.
• Fuel is flammable, so the tank must be filled only when
the engine is turned off. Dry carefully any fuel that may
have spilled, remove the fuel container and any cloths
soaked in fuel or oil, check that any sound-absorbing
panels made of porous material are not soaked with fuel
or oil, and make sure that the ground on which the
machine is located has not absorbed fuel or oil.
• To start the engine follow the specific instructions
provided in the engine and/or machine operating manual.
Do not use auxiliary starting devices not originally
installed on the machine (e.g. Startpilot systems which
utilise ether etc.)
• Before starting, remove any tools that have been used
for carrying out maintenance work to the engine and/or
the machine and check that any guards removed have
been replaced. In cold climates it is possible to mix
kerosene with the diesel fuel to make the engine easier
to start. The liquids must be mixed in the tank by pouring
in first the kerosene and then the diesel fuel. Consult
Lombardini technical office for mixture proportions.
Petrol may not be used because of the risk of it forming
flammable vapours.
• During operation the surface of the engine reaches
temperatures that may be dangerous. Avoid in particular
all contact with the exhaust system.
• Before carrying out any work on the engine, turn it off
and allow it to cool down. Do not perform any operation
