Starting Air Tank - Check
■ Engine Start-up
■ Warm-up Operation
Make sure that the air pressure in the
starting air tank satisfies the
specification.
* If starting is attempted several times in a row,
the air motor could get damaged.
Be sure to drain water from the
starting air tank.
* Otherwise, water could enter the air motor when
starting the engine.
Do not apply load to the engine at
startup.
* Otherwise, the devices could be damaged.
Do not use the starter continuously
for 10 seconds or longer. In case that
the engine does not start after three
consecutive trials, contact your SME
dealer.
* Otherwise, flue explosion due to the
accumulation of unburnt fuel or burn-damage to
the starter may occur.
While a warning sign such as "DO NOT
OPERATE" is hanged out on the
starting system, do not start the
engine.
* Otherwise, serious personal injury,
environmental pollution or damage to the
devices could occur.
Do not start the engine with water
inside its combustion chamber.
* Otherwise, water hammering could cause
damage to the engine inner parts and a serious
accident.
Before starting the engine, make sure
there is no one in the vicinity of the
engine.
* Otherwise, he/she may be caught in the rotating
parts and get seriously injured or suffer noise-
induced hearing loss.
Stay away from rotating parts during
operation.
* Otherwise you may get caught in the rotating
parts and seriously injured.
Do not apply excessive load when the
engine is cold.
* Otherwise, it could cause a failure.
* If the engine is driven at an idle speed in the low
load range for a prolonged period of time,
unburnt fuel may accumulate in the flue and
explode.
When operating at low load (less than
30%), limit the operation to an hour or
less.
* Prolonged warm-up operation causes carbon
build-up in the cylinders that leads to
incomplete combustion.
* After one hour operation at a low load, operate
the engine at 50% or more of rated load for 30
minutes or longer to prevent the formation of
carbon deposits.
While the engine is warming up,
check the connections for leak (fuel,
engine oil, coolant and exhaust gas).
If an abnormality is found, stop the
engine immediately.
* Otherwise, a fire or damage to the devices may
occur.
* It could lead to carbon monoxide intoxication or
environmental pollution.
