DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
Routine check before starting the engine
•Make certain that the accelerator pedal automati-
cally
returns to the idling position.
•Make certain that the drive lever is in the midpo-
sition
and that the winch is disengaged.
Starting of cold engine
Turn the ignition switch to the drive position
(ON). Warning lights for charging and oil pressure
shine. Turn the switch to the ‘glow plug’ position
(GL). When the indicator is extinguished, turn the
switch to the start position (ST).
Make certain that the ignition switch automati-
cally returns to the ‘drive’ position (ON), when the
engine has started.
Don’t run the starter motor continuously for more
than 10 seconds at a time. Repeat the heating with
the glow plugs before the next starting attempt.
Starting of warm engine
No heating with the glow plugs is required for the
starting of a warm engine. Turn the ignition switch
direct to start (ST).
Starting during cold weather
At extremely low temperatures it may prove ne-
cessary to use the glow plugs twice at an interval
of 15 seconds. A full throttle gives the injection
pump the maximum amount of fuel.
Engine heater (option)
During cold weather there may be reason to use an
electric or diesel-powered engine heater to heat the
engine’s cooling water.
Warming up before driving
The engine requires about 4 to 5 minutes’ warming
up, before you can start to drive the machine. Av-
oid engine speeds exceeding 1,500 r.p.m. before
the hydraulic oil has become warm. Drive with the
gearbox in neutral and the trailer drive disenga-
ged.
