CAUTION
Following aborted start shutdown perform the following proce-
dure before restarting:
- Allow 30 seconds fuel drain period
- Perform a 30 seconds DRY MOTORING RUN.
Refer to Section 1 for engine starter limitations and to DRY
MOTORING RUN procedure in this Section.
Engine oil pressure : Check.
NOTE
During cold starting conditions the engine oil pressure can rise up
to a transient of 200 PSI. The pressure decreases as oil tempera-
ture rises. The oil pressure limits in Section 1, Fig. 1-5 must be
respected when main oil temperature is 71°C - 120°C.
CAUTION
Do not apply power until engine oil temperature reaches 10°C.
WARNING
If the main rotor has not begun to rotate when gas producer (N1)
reaches 40%, abort the start by setting the ENG MODE switch to
OFF.
Engine N°1 starter : Automatically deactivated
when N1 is 50%.
START and IGN legends auto-
matically suppressed.
Main hydraulic system : When the main rotor begins to
rotate, check rise in main hy-
draulic pressure.
