2.1 STARTING AND WARMUP AFTER A NORMAL
SHUTDOWN
Starting should be precede by a through visual inspection of the engine and a
check of the following items:
a. Check engine lube oil level
b. Check governor and turbocharger oil levels (if supplied from separate lube systems)
c. Check coolant level for both the high-temperature and low-temperature systems.
d. Check the fuel tank level. If heavy fuel is used, also check the
operation of the heating mechanism and the centrifuge.
e. If heavy fuel is used, set the selector valves in the LIGHT FUEL position.
f. Check the air pressure in the starting air reservoir (should be 1.77
~
2.94 MPa
Drain any water from the reservoir.
g. Check to make sure the safety stop devices air in working order.
h. Fill the grease cup in the starting air distributor.
After completion of the above checks, the lube oil priming pump should be
started, the indicator cocks on all cylinders should be opened, and the engine
should be rotated (with the turning device) for 3 or 4 complete revolutions to
insure that no water has leaked into the cylinders during the shutdown period.
(Observe for water coming out of the indicator cocks as the engine is rotated).
If any cylinder has filled with water, the engine should not be run until the
source of the leakage has been located and repaired.
If no water is observed, the turning device should be removed and the cylinder
cocks should be closed.
With the lube oil priming pump still running, check to make sure that oil
pressure exists (will be low level, but this check is just to make certain that
the priming pump is operating correctly).
Set the governor control lever in the 'IDLE' position.
Start the engine by opening the main air valve to the starter. Disconnect the
starter (turn off air supply) as soon as the engine is running.
As soon as the lube oil pressure rises to a normal idle level, turn off the
priming pump.
Continue running at idle speed until the lube oil temperature rises to about
40
℃
. This will normally require only 4-5 minutes. During this time, check the
