2.1 General Safety Instructions
The following safety instructions must be followed in the area in which the device is operated:
High voltage! Danger to life!
While the engine is running, the area around the ignition system especially
holds the risk of danger due to high voltage. The following parts should
therefore not be touched or removed unless explicitly stated otherwise:
–Ignition coils and caps
–Wires of the high voltage circuit
–In- and output wiring of the ignition controller
–Pickups and their wiring
Danger to persons with pacemakers!
Electromagnetic impulses in the wiring of the ignition system may exceed
the permissible limits of pacemakers. Persons with pacemakers must
therefore not be present in the vicinity of the ignition system being
operated. Mark the operating location of the ignition system with the
corresponding standardized warning symbol.
MOTORTECH equipment is manufactured as state of the art and therefore safe and reliable to
operate. Nevertheless the equipment can cause risks or damage can occur, if the following
instructions are not complied with:
–The gas engine must only be operated by trained and authorized personnel.
–Operate the equipment only within the parameters specified in the technical data.
–Use the equipment correctly and for its intended use only.
–Never apply force.
–For all work such as installation, conversion, adaptation, maintenance, and repair, all
equipment must be disconnected from the mains and secured against unintentional
reactivation.
–Perform only such maintenance and repair work as is described in this operating manual,
and follow the instructions given while working.
–Only use spare parts supplied by MOTORTECH for the maintenance of the device.
–Further work must only be performed by personnel authorized by MOTORTECH. Non-
compliance with the instructions will void any warranties for the proper function of the
equipment as well as the responsibility for the validity of the certifications.
–Safety devices must not be dismounted or disabled.

10 Rev. 02/2019
–Avoid all activities that can impair the function of the equipment.
–Operate the equipment only while it is in proper condition.
–Investigate all changes detected while operating the gas engine or ignition system.
–Ensure compliance with all laws, directives and regulations applicable to the operation of
your system, including such not expressly stated herein.
–If the system is not entirely tight and sealed, gas may escape and result in explosion hazard.
The inhalation of gas can also lead to death or severe health damages. Therefore, upon
completion of all assembly works, always check the system's tightness.
–Always ensure adequate ventilation of the engine compartment.
–Ensure a safe position at the gas engine.
–There is a risk of burning on hot surfaces. Allow the engine to cool down before starting any
work.
–Personal protective equipment (PPE), e.g. safety shoes and gloves, must be worn during all
work on the engine.
–Your behavior can reduce possible residual risks to a minimum. Pay attention to a
responsible handling of the gas engine and the gas-carrying system.
2.2 Electrostatic Discharge Hazards
Electronic equipment is sensitive to static electricity. To protect these components from damage
caused by static electricity, special precautions must be taken to minimize or prevent
electrostatic discharge.
Observe these safety precautions while you work with the equipment or in its vicinity.
–Before performing maintenance or repair work, ensure that the static electricity inherent to
your body is discharged.
–Do not wear clothing made from synthetic materials to prevent static electricity from
building up. Your clothing should therefore be made of cotton or cotton mix materials.
–Keep plastics such as vinyl and Styrofoam materials as far away from the control system, the
modules, and the work environment as possible.
–Do not remove the circuit boards from the enclosure of the device.
