NOTICE
If equipped with an auxiliary oil filter system or a re-
mote filter system, follow the OEM or the filter manu-
factures recommendations. Under-filling or over filling
the crankcase with oil can cause engine damage.
Note: Before starting the engine, the engine oil
system must be primed. Refer to Operation and
Maintenance Manual, “Before Starting Engine” for
the procedure to prime the engine oil system.
3. Start the engine and run the engine for 2 minutes.

Engine Protective Devices -
Check
(Including Sensor Pack)
Alarms and shutoffs must function properly. Alarms
provide timely warning to the operator. Shutoffs help
to prevent damage to the engine. It is impossible to
determine if the engine protective devices are in
good working order during normal operation.
Malfunctions must be simulated to test the engine
protective devices.
A calibration check of the engine protective devices
will ensure that the alarms and shutoffs activate at
the setpoints. Ensure that the engine protective
devices are functioning properly.
NOTICE
During testing, abnormal operating conditions must
be simulated.
The tests must be performed correctly in order to pre-
vent possible damage to the engine.
To prevent damage to the engine, only authorized
service personnel or your Perkins dealer should
perform the tests.
