MLC165-1 OPERATOR MANUAL OPERATING CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
4. Make sure the fuel system shut-off valve at both ends of
the fuel tank (1, Figure 3-6
) is open.
5. Make sure the emergency stop button is UP in the cab
an on the remote control. The engine will not start if
either button is down (see Emergency Stop Button on
page 3-13).
6. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position.
- All indicator lights, operating limit buzzer, and the
system fault beeper should come on for 2 to 3
seconds when ignition switch is in the RUN position.
If any do not, troubleshoot as soon as possible.
- The WAIT-TO-START icon will
appear on the main display
indicating that the pre-heater is
warming the engine’s air
intake.
7. When the WAIT-TO-START icon disappears (4–5
seconds), turn the ignition switch to the START position.
8. Once the engine starts, increase engine speed as
necessary to keep the engine running.
NOTE It is normal for faults to appear when the engine is
started. The faults should go away as soon as the
engine oil pressure and hydraulic oil temperature
rise to normal.
Fault 65 will remain on until the
hydraulic oil temperature is 60° F
(15° C). There will be no throttle
response until this fault is cleared.
To allow the hydraulic oil to warm up during cold
weather startup, the crane can be in standard or
setup mode. Do not activate any lower accessory
functions until the hydraulic oil has warmed up to a
minimum operating temperature of 60° F (15° C).
For fault identification, see the MLC165-1 Main Display
Operation Manual.

CAUTION
Avoid Starter Damage
If the engine does not start after 30 seconds of cranking,
wait a few minutes before starting again so that the starter
motor cools.
CAUTION
Avoid Machinery Damage
Do not operate the crane if faults do not go away soon
after the engine is started, or if any come on during
operation. In case of a fault, immediately:
• Determine the fault on the main display information
screen.
• Land the loads, if possible, and park all functions.
• Move all control handles to off.
• Stop the engine.
• Correct the cause of the fault.
