RT9130E-2 OPERATOR MANUAL OPERATING CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
3
NOTE: The buzzer will sound upon turning the Ignition
Switch to START and turn off after proper engine oil
pressure is reached.
3. The Wait-to-Start Lamp is illuminated during the preheat
time that takes place when the Ignition Switch is in the
ON position during cold weather starting. To minimize
cranking time during cold weather starting, the engine
should not be cranked until the Wait-to-Start Lamp turns
off.
4. Turn the Ignition Switch to Start and release immediately
when the engine starts. Do not push or hold the throttle
down. The ECM will automatically provide the proper
amount of fuel to start the engine.
5. Immediately check the engine instruments and warning
lights for proper indication after starting.
6. Allow the engine to warm up at least five minutes before
applying a load. Do not race the engine for a faster warm
up.
Detailed cold weather starting and operating procedures are
covered in the engine manual.
Warm Engine
Set the parking brake to On.
1. Position the transmission to neutral, and depress the
service brake foot pedal.

Allow the engine to warm up at least five minutes before
applying a load. Do not race the engine for a faster warm up.
Idling the Engine
Idling the engine unnecessarily for long periods of time
wastes fuel and fouls injector nozzles. Unburned fuel causes
carbon formation, oil dilution, formation of lacquer or gummy
deposits on the valves, pistons, and rings, and rapid
accumulation of sludge in the engine.
NOTE: When prolonged idling is necessary, maintain at
least 900 rpm.
Racing the Engine
NEVER race the engine during the warm-up period. NEVER
operate the engine beyond governed speed (as might occur
in downhill operation or downshifting). Engine bearings,
pistons, and valves may be damaged if these precautions
are not taken.
Shutdown Procedure
1. Allow the engine to operate at idle for about five minutes
to avoid high internal heat rise and allow for heat
dissipation.
2. Turn the ignition switch to Off.
CAUTION
Transmission Damage Hazard!
Apply the service brakes before starting the engine when
