Introduction
(For: JCB T4i Elec Engine (4 Cyl))
Notice: Do not keep the accelerator pedal fully
depressed when the engine has started. Do not
race the engine until the oil pressure low light
has gone out. Racing the engine too soon could
damage the turbo-charger due to insufficient
lubrication.
Several factors will influence the starting
performance of the engine, these include:
• The ambient temperature
• The condition of the battery
• The viscosity of the engine oil
• The condition of the starter motor
The engine does not require any cold starting aids
for temperatures down to -12°C (10.4°F).
If the engine is operating in temperatures below
-12°C (10.4°F) then pre-heater is available. The
heater is installed in the inlet manifold and is linked
into the machine's electrical system.
In severe cold climate conditions, a block heater can
be installed.
Make sure that all the necessary machine pre-start
checks have been completed, these will include:
• Engine oil level
• Engine coolant level
• Battery connections
• Fuel tank has sufficient fuel
• Fuel pre-filters drained of water
• The machine is safe and ready to start
