Fuel Injector: Service Precautions
WARNING:- When a nozzle is being tested or is in operation, keep hands and other parts of the body away from the nozzle. The liquid discharge leaves the nozzle tip with sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause serious injury. The nozzle tip should be enclosed in a transparent receptacle if available.
- Always wear approved safety glasses when operating the tester. Volatile liquids can be extremely flammable when vaporized. Eliminate any ignition sources (Sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc.) when testing injection nozzles, and always have an approved fire extinguisher near-by. Only use testing fluid meeting SAE calibration no. 208629, or equivalent.
