Starting the Engine
Before the first start up, whether a new engine or immediately after a service, check
that all alarms and shutdown sensors are working well according to the
commissioning. Make provisions to be able to stop the engine if a fault occurs. This
can be done by shutting off the fuel or air supply to the engine or if equipped, pushing
the emergency stop button..
Never use any high pressure engine starting agents (for example, ether) to facilitate
start-up due to a risk of explosion or injury.
Never start an engine without checking that this operation can be carried out without
danger to people or equipment. If there is a warning tag attached to the control panel
or start switch do not start the engine or touch the controls.
Start the engine from the control panel or operator’s booth.
Ensure that the jacket water heater and/or lube oil heater (if equipped) are working
properly by checking the temperature gauges during the heating operation.
Never short across the starting motor terminals or the batteries as this could damage
the electrical system.
Never bypass or disable the automatic shutoff circuit – these are provided to help
prevent injury and engine damage.
Engine exhaust could be harmful to your health, therefore always start and operate
the engine in a well ventilated area. If in an enclosed area, ensure the engine exhaust
is vented properly to the outside.
Recommendations for engines equipped with Common Rail system
Wear personal protective equipment (PPE) where required.
High-pressure fuel spray can cause irreversible body damage. Wear required
protection when conducting operations on the entire circuit. NEVER remove a high
pressure fuel line when the engine is running.
Make sure that the lines are depressurised before any dismantling operations.
Release the high pressure before handling the feed and injection circuit of a common
rail engine.
Stopping the Engine
Stop the engine from the control panel or operator’s booth.
Use the Emergency Stop Button (if equipped) only in the event of an emergency. Do
not use the Emergency Stop Button for normal engine stopping. Do not start the
engine after using the Emergency Stop Button until the problem that caused the
emergency stop has been corrected.
Let the engine cool down before carrying out any maintenance operation.
Do not perform any operations on the engine for at least 15 minutes after an
emergency shut down.
