Hazards due to moving parts

● Running the engine without covers and coming in contact with moving parts
● Touching pump parts during unintentional start of electrically driven pump motor
● Turbocharger starting to rotate due to draft if not locked during maintenance
● Thrusting a hand into the compressor housing when the silencer is removed and the engine is running
● Unexpected movement of valve or fuel rack(s) due to a broken wire or a software/hardware failure in the control system
● Unexpected movement of components
● Turning device engaged during maintenance work
● Accidental rotation of the crankshaft if the turning device is not engaged during maintenance work, for instance, because it has been removed for overhaul
● Mechanical breakage (for example of a speed sensor) due to incorrect assembly of the actuator to the engine or faulty electrical connections.
