OPERATING THE ENGINE
PRE-START CHECKS
Prior to starting the engine, make pre-
start checks according to the Mainte-
nance Check List on chapter 5.3.
PRE-STARTING INSPECTION
Before starting the engine each day, per-
form the following checks and services:
Do not start the engine in a closed
storehouse, garage or room. Exhaust
gas is poisonous. Be sure to open the
doors and windows before starting.
Check fuel supply.
Use diesel fuel only.
Refill the fuel tank before it becomes
empty. If a diesel system is allowed to
run out of fuel, it will become necessary
to air-bleed the system after filling the
fuel tank.
Check oil level in the engine crankcase
and correct, if necessary.
