The area formed by Lines 1, 3, 5 and 9 is the range within which the engine
should be operated.
The area limited by Line 7, Line 9 and Line 3 is recommended for continuous op-
eration.
The area between Line 7 and Line 5 is reserved for acceleration, shallow water
and normal operational flexibility. If a PTO is installed, then the operating char-
acteristics of the engine will differ (see section 2.6, 2-10 for further details re-
garding PTO characteristics).
Overload Power Range
Line 6, Line 2 and Line 13 form the curve for the engine’s overload power limit,
as defined by Formula 2-5. Each component is governed by different coefficients
(see Table 2-2).
