Engine Shutdown
Allow the engine to run at low idle, in neutral, for a few minutes after operations are completed. In this way after-
boiling is avoided at the same time as temperature equalization takes place. This is especially important when
the engine has been run at high rpm or under heavy load.
Before Engine Shutdown
Let the engine run at high idle (1500 or 1800rpm) for a
minimum of 5 minutes before the shutdown after
normal use. Normal use is defined as minimum 50%
load. After use with less than 50% load, high idle for
approximately 3 minutes is sufficient. This allows
engine temperature equalization and prevents boiling
once stopped and also allows the turbochargers to cool
down. This contributes to long, fault-free service life.
NOTICE! Do not turn off the main switch within 30
seconds after turning off the ignition. This is in order to
save engine data to the engine control unit and ACM
unit to drain the EATS system from urea solution.
Stop the Engine
Auxiliary stop
If the engine cannot be stopped in a normal procedure,
it is possible to stop the engine via the auxiliary stop
mounted on the side of the engine.
