Prepare for Engine Start after a Short Shut-down Period
(One or More Days)
1. Start Position
For the start position, the engine must be in the condition that follows:
D All components that had an overhaul are correctly assembled and installed. All
components that had an overhaul have had tests or checks to make sure that
they operate correctly.
D All devices, tools and materials are removed from the engine.
D The fuel pump settings and the connections of the actuators to the regulating
linkages are correct.
CAUTION
Damage Hazard: The vent valves 2.21 and 2.27 in the start air line
must be open when the starting air shut-off valve 2.03 is in the
manually CLOSED position (see the Control Diagram 4003−2).
2. Prepare for Operation
1) Do a check of the fluid levels of all the tanks in the engine systems (and the
leakage drain tanks).
2) Make sure that all the shut-off valves for the coolant water system and lubrication
oil system are in the correct position.
3) Open the air supply from the shipboard system and from the starting air
bottles [9.01] to the control air supply A.
4) Open the shut-off valve 36HB at connection A1 and set the 3/2-way shut-off valve
4.08 to the operation position (see Control Air Supply 4605−1).
5) Heat the lubrication oil to approximately 35_C (through the lube oil separator or
heaters in oil drain tank if installed).
6) Heat the cylinder coolant water to a minimum of 60_C.
7) Set to on the remote control system and the WECS−9520.
8) In the power supply box E85, set all circuit breakers to on.
9) Make sure that the two green LEDs on all FCM−20 come on.
Note: The FCM−20 can operate if no red LEDs come on after the countdown
process.
10) Prepare the servo oil system (see 0130−1).
11) Start the pumps for the cylinder coolant water and bearing oil. Set the pressures
to their usual values (see the Operating Data Sheet 0250−1).
12) Set to on the control box for the automatic filter (see the documentation of the
automatic filter manufacturer).
13) Set to on the main switch of the servo oil service pump.
14) Prepare the cylinder lubrication system (see 0140−1).
15) Prepare the fuel system (see 0120−1).
16) Make sure that you correctly release all air from all systems.
17) Make sure that there is an air spring supply and make sure that all exhaust
valves are closed.
18) In the remote control, use the parameter Exv. A/M Cmd to manually open and
close all exhaust valves 4.01 until all air is released in the hydraulic actuators
(see 4002−3 User Parameters and Maintenance Settings, paragraph 1).
Note: You cannot start the engine if the exhaust valves are not fully closed.
