9.7 Running-in of new components - general
After an overhaul or an installation of new components of the piston running system, WinGD
recommends a running-in procedure. This makes sure a correct film of cylinder oil on the piston
running system is built. The procedure includes a temporary higher feed rate, refer to Figure 9-3.
WinGD recommends an inspection of the cylinder liners and of the piston rings after 24 operation
hours and after 72 operation hours (001, Figure 9-3). For this running-in procedure it is not
necessary to have a special loading up apart from vessel specific loading up protocols.
