Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance and repair are caused by failure to
observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially
hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This
person should also have the necessary training, skills and tools to perform these functions properly.
Improper operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair of this product can be dangerous and
could result in injury or death.
Do not operate or perform any lubrication, maintenance or repair on this product, until you have
read and understood the operation, lubrication, maintenance and repair information.
Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual and on the product. If these hazard
warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons.
The hazards are identified by the “Safety Alert Symbol” and followed by a “Signal Word” such as
“DANGER”, “WARNING” or “CAUTION”. The Safety Alert “WARNING” label is shown below.
The meaning of this safety alert symbol is as follows:
Attention! Become Alert! Your Safety is Involved.
The message that appears under the warning explains the hazard and can be either written or
pictorially presented.
Operations that may cause product damage are identified by “NOTICE” labels on the product and in
this publication.
Perkins cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. The
warnings in this publication and on the product are, therefore, not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure,
work method or operating technique that is not specifically recommended by Perkins is used,
you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and for others. You should also ensure that the
product will not be damaged or be made unsafe by the operation, lubrication, maintenance or
repair procedures that you choose.
The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are on the basis of information that
was available at the time that the publication was written. The specifications, torques, pressures,
measurements, adjustments, illustrations, and other items can change at any time. These changes can
affect the service that is given to the product. Obtain the complete and most current information before
you start any job. Perkins dealers or Perkins distributors have the most current information available.
When replacement parts are required for this
product Perkins recommends using Perkins
replacement parts.
Failure to heed this warning can lead to premature failures, product damage, personal injury or

The high pressure fuel lines are the fuel lines that
are between the high pressure fuel pump and the
high pressure fuel manifold and the fuel lines that are
between the fuel manifold and cylinder head. These
fuel lines are different from fuel lines on other fuel
systems.
This is because of the following items:
The high pressure fuel lines are constantly charged
•
with high pressure.
The internal pressures of the high pressure fuel
•
lines are higher than other types of fuel system.
The high pressure fuel lines are formed to shape
•
and then strengthened by a special process.
Do not step on the high pressure fuel lines. Do not
deflect the high pressure fuel lines. Do not bend or
strike the high pressure fuel lines. Deformation or
damage of the high pressure fuel lines may cause a
point of weakness and potential failure.
Do not check the high pressure fuel lines with the
engine or the starting motor in operation. After the
engine has stopped, you must wait for 10 minutes in
order to allow the fuel pressure to be purged from the
high pressure fuel lines before any service or repair
is performed on the engine fuel lines.
Do not loosen the high pressure fuel lines in order
to remove air from the fuel system. This procedure
is not required.

Electrical System
Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or battery
circuit cable from the battery when the charging unit
is operating. A spark can cause the combustible
gases that are produced by some batteries to ignite.
Grounding Practices
To help prevent sparks from igniting combustible
gases that are produced by some batteries, the
negative “−” cable should be connected last from
the external power source to the primary position for
grounding.
Check the electrical wires daily for wires that
are loose or frayed. Tighten all loose electrical
connections before the engine is started. Repair all
frayed electrical wires before the engine is started.
See the Operation and Maintenance Manual for
specific starting instructions.

The weight of the clean emission module (CEM)
when laden is approximately 50 kg (110 lb). Two
suitable double looped slings are required in order to
lift the CEM. Also a suitable hoist will be required in
order to remove and install the assembly.
The slings must be attached to the CEM in the

Ensure that the slings only contact the body of the
