Operation
Avoiding running the engine under low-load conditions
The running performance of the engine can be negatively affected if it runs at
high speed and at less than 20 % of the load.
Operating temperature is not reached!
• Effects: Increased lube oil consumption
• Lube oil in exhaust system
• Engine contamination
• Blue smoke in exhaust
We recommend running the engine at loads of over 20 % during regular
operation
Stopping the engine
In order to avoid heat accumulation and damage to the exhaust gas turbo-
charger, do not stop the engine from full throttle!
☞ Let the engine run at idling speed for about 2 minutes and then switch it off
☞ Apply the parking brake to the last notch
☞ Turn the ignition key in the preheating start switch to “0” and remove it
