5.4.1 Heat engine start-up
By turning the starter key on the platform control panel:
To “0” position the Diesel engine stops (models “D” and “ED”).
To “3 sec” position the plugs pre-heating takes place (only engines with plugs) (models “D” and “ED”).
To “Start” position the motor starts.
Do not insist on the starting position for longer than 3
seconds. In the event of failed start, check the fuel level
by means of the relevant indicator and read the Use and maintenance manual of the Engine.
Do not try to start the motor if it is already running. This operation may cause the pinion of the starter to break

In the event of operational faults, check the motor warning lights and read the Use and Maintenance manual of
the motor.

form green warning light ON is flashing.
