WARNING:
DO NOT LET ENGINE OIL STAY ON YOUR SKIN FOR A LONG TIME. FLUSH THE OIL FROM YOUR SKIN WITH WATER. THE OIL IS POISONOUS AND CAN GO THROUGH YOUR SKIN AND INTO YOUR BODY.
CAUTION:
DRAINED OIL MUST NOT BE RETURNED TO THE SYSTEM.
CAUTION:
THE OIL SPECIFIED FOR USE IN THIS SYSTEM CAN DAMAGE PAINTWORK AND CERTAIN TYPES OF RUBBER. IT MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTAMINATE THOSE PARTS OF THE ENGINE NOT NORMALLY IN CONTACT WITH IT. OIL SPILLED DURING SERVICING MUST BE WIPED UP IMMEDIATELY WITH A CLEAN LINT FREE CLOTH.
CAUTION:
CONTAMINATION BY TINY AMOUNTS OF CERTAIN ALKALI CLEANING FLUIDS CAN CAUSE COMPLETE BREAKDOWN OF THE SYNTHETIC OIL. USE SCRUPULOUSLY CLEAN CONTAINERS AND EQUIPMENT.
NOTE: This subtask is only necessary if the engine is to be stored after a period of service operation.
NOTE: If the engine is not installed on an aircraft, the engine must be installed in a test cell before the procedure can be carried out.
NOTE: This task is not applicable to new engines or overhauled engines.
