Avoid skin contact with fuel where possible. Should
contact occur, wash the affected skin with soap
and water.
Gasoline (Petrol)
Highly flammable - observe No Smoking policy.

Irritation of the mouth and throat may result from
swallowing. The main hazard from swallowing
arises if liquid aspiration into the lungs occurs.
Liquid contact dries the skin and can cause
irritation or dermatitis. Splashes in the eye may be
slightly irritating.
In normal circumstances the low volatility does not
give rise to harmful vapors. Exposure to mists and
vapors from kerosene at elevated temperature
should be avoided (mists may arise in dewaxing).
Avoid skin and eye contact and make sure there
is adequate ventilation.
Gas Cylinders
See also Fire. Gases such as oxygen, acetylene, argon and
propane are normally stored in cylinders at
pressures of up to 138 bar (2000 psi) and great
care should be taken in handling these cylinders
to avoid mechanical damage to them or to the valve
gear attached. The contents of each cylinder
should be clearly identified by appropriate
markings.
Cylinders should be stored in well-ventilated
enclosures, and protected from ice and snow, or
direct sunlight. Fuel gases, for example acetylene
and propane, should not be stored in close
proximity to oxygen cylinders.
Care should be exercised to prevent leaks from
gas cylinders and lines, and to avoid sources of
ignition.
Only trained personnel should undertake work
involving gas cylinders.

General Workshop Tools and
Equipment
It is essential that all tools and equipment are
maintained in good condition and that the correct
safety equipment is used where required.
Never use tools or equipment for any purpose other
than that for which they were designed. Never
overload equipment such as hoists, jacks, axle and
chassis stands or lifting slings. Damage caused by
overloading is not always immediately apparent
and may result in a fatal failure the next time that
the equipment is used.
Do not use damaged or defective tools or
equipment, particularly high-speed equipment such
as grinding wheels. A damaged grinding wheel can
disintegrate without warning and cause serious
injury.
Wear suitable eye protection when using grinding,
chiseling or sand blasting equipment.
Wear a suitable breathing mask when using
abrasive blasting equipment, working with
asbestos-based materials or using spraying
equipment.

The Haldex clutch is based on the principle of a
simple wet clutch that distributes the torque variably
between the front and rear axles.
Three components are linked within the Haldex
clutch:• A mechanical component, comprising input and
output shafts, the plate assembly (clutch) as
well as the cam plate and the roller bearing.
• A hydraulic component, essentially comprising pressure valves, a pressure accumulator, the
control valve, the ring pistons and a fluid filter.
• The electronic control comprises the electric fluid pump and the all-wheel drive control unit
with integrated pressure/temperature sensor
and an actuator motor for the control valve.

NOTE: The power steering pump must be filled
and vented as specified.
The electro-hydraulic power steering pump
comprises a brushless DC motor, the hydraulic
pump and the power steering fluid reservoir.
The hydraulic pump is a gear pump; a resonance
chamber incorporated into the pump body reduces
noise emissions.
The operating pressure is also regulated by means
of a pressure limiting valve which is integrated in
the pump housing. The pressure limiting valve
stabilizes the throughput to the steering gear to a
particular level independently of engine speed.
The pressure relief valve will operate if the
discharge from the pump is restricted, for example, steering held on full lock. If the output from the
pump is blocked, all output is recirculated through
the pump. As no fresh fluid from the reservoir is
drawn into the pump in the process, the
temperature of the power steering fluid in the pump
quickly increases. Consequently, periods of holding
the steering wheel at full lock should be kept to a
minimum to prevent overheating of the pump and
the power steering fluid within it.
The pressure limiting valve limits the pressure on
the outlet side to 120 bar.
