(5) Turn the ignition key clockwise
to position "III" (5-1). As soon as the
engine starts, release the ignition
key.
NOTE
- If the engine has not started after
two attempts, determine the cause
using the malfunction table in the
operating instructions for the
engine (section 7.1).
- For operation at extremely low
temperatures, see the operating
instructions for the engine.
- The clogging indicator for the
hydraulic oil filter (4-13/25) may
light up prematurely after a cold
start. It will go out when the
hydraulic oil warms up. Operate
the loader at a low speed until the
indicator lamp goes out. Never
subject the loader to full loads in
this state.
5.2.2 Winter operation
CAUTION
If the outside temperature is below
0 °C, the machine must be properly
"warmed up" to avoid damage to
certain assemblies. To do so, actuate
all cylinders (lifting and tipping
cylinders) for some time (depen-
ding on the ambient temperature)
with the machine idling.
Proper operation of the machine
can only be guaranteed even for
subzero temperatures if the follow-
ing measures have been taken:
5.2.2.1Fuel
At low temperatures, paraffin
precipitating from the fuel can cause
the fuel system to clog up.
For this reason, always use winter
diesel fuel (suitable for tempe-
ratures down to -15 °C) when the
outside temperature is below 0 °C.
