Ensure that the correct specification Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is used. Ensure the cleanliness of the DEF, refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Fluid Recommendations" for more information.Care should be taken when dispensing DEF. Spills should be cleaned immediately. All surfaces should be wiped clean and rinsed with water. DEF that has been split will crystallize when the water within the liquid evaporates. Split DEF will attack paint and metal. If DEF is split, wash the area with water.Caution should be used when dispensing DEF near an engine that has recently been running. Spilling DEF onto hot components may cause the release of ammonia vapors. Do not breathe ammonia vapors. Do not clean up any spills with bleach.Ensure that the DEF tank is full before starting work.
Before filling the DEF tank, ensure that the DEF lines have been purged. Purging of the DEF lines will take place, after the engine has stopped. Only after purging the DEF lines should the DEF tank be filled. For more information on the time taken for purging the DEF lines, refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Battery Disconnect Switch ".
