putting the machine into operation!

Tips on how to achieve optimal output

➥ Let the diesel engine warm up at low engine speed
(1/4 throttle) for about 30 seconds.
• Avoid loading the diesel engine at idling speed.
➥ Avoid low-load operation (less than 20% load).
• Do not run the diesel engine at high speed for
extended periods.
