Engine economy balancing tips
• It is most economical to operate the engine at medium speed -ranging from
60% to 90% of rated speed.
• The engine power is increased with the increase of the speed. Rated power is
obtained at rated speed.
• According to seasons, select the specied brand of fuel, oil and coolant in
compliance with requirements.
• Carry out the inspection and maintenance according to schedule (see Section
IV of this manual).
• During operation, maintain engine parameter as per table 4.3
Any sudden rise in oil/coolant temperature which is not caused by
increase in load is a possible system failure warning and should be
investigated thoroughly at once
