MAINTENANCE PRIOR TO STARTING UP
FUEL FILTER, DRAIN WATER
If dirt or water has been detected in the water separator, place a
clean container beneath the fuel filter. Open the drain valve on
the base of the fuel filter and drain off the water. Close the drain
valve again as soon as clean fuel emerges.
CHECKING DRIVE BELTS
Check whether the belt has any signs of cracks. Cracks across
the width of the belt are permitted. Longitudinal cracks along the
length of the belt meeting cross-cracks, missing pieces or
damaged fabric layers are not permitted.
CHECKING THE FAN AND ITS ATTACHMENT
CAUTION
The fan can be damaged, if you turn the engine at the fan!
Only turn the engine with the engine swivel installation.
Check whether the fan is firmly attached. If necessary, retighten
the bolts. Damaged fans must be replaced.
