Open Cooling System
Ensure that all cooling drain plugs have been
opened. Allow the coolant to drain. Install the drain
plugs. Place a vapor phase inhibitor into the system.
The coolant system must be sealed once the vapor
phase inhibitor has been introduced. The effect of the
vapor phase inhibitor will be lost if the cooling system
is open to the atmosphere.
For maintenance procedures ref to this Operation and
Maintenance Manual.
Monthly Checks
The crankshaft must be rotated in order to change the
spring loading on the valve train. Rotate the
crankshaft more than 180 degrees. Visibly check for
damage or corrosion to the engine and
aftertreatment.
Ensure that the engine and aftertreatment are
covered completely before storage. Log the
procedure in the record for the engine.
Aftertreatment
The engine must be allowed to perform a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) purge before the battery
disconnect switch is turned off. Some applications,
the engine can be equipped with delayed engine
shutdown. Allow 2 minutes after the engine has
stopped before disconnecting the battery disconnect
switch.
The exhaust outlet of the aftertreatment must be
capped. In order to prevent damage to the exhaust
outlet connection during storage, the weight of the
CEM must not act on the exhaust outlet.
DEF Tank Storage
1. Ensure normal engine shutdown, allow the DEF to
be purged. Do not disconnect the battery
disconnect switch, allow 2 minutes after key off
before disconnection.
2. Fill the tank with DEF that meet all the requirement
defined in ISO 22241-1.
3. Ensure that all DEF lines and electrical connection
are connected prior to prevent crystal from
forming.
4. Ensure that the DEF filler cap is correctly installed.
Removal from Storage
DEF has a limited life, refer to table 3 for the time and
temperature range. DEF that is outside this range
MUST be replaced.
On removal from storage the DEF quality in the tank
must be tested with a refractometer. The DEF in the
tank must meet the requirements defined in ISO
22241-1 and comply with table 3 .
1. If necessary, drain the tank and fill with DEF that
meet ISO 22241-1.
2. Replace the DEF filter, refer to this Operation and
Maintenance Manual, “Diesel Exhaust Fluid Filter-
Clean/Replace”.
3. Ensure that the drive belt is correctly installed.
Ensure that all engine coolant and engine oil has
the correct specification and grade. Ensure that the
coolant and the engine oil are at the correct level.
Start the engine. If a fault becomes active turn off
the engine, allow 2 minutes for the DEF system to
purge, then restart the engine.
4. If the fault continues to stay active, refer to
Troubleshooting for more information.
