ENGINE LAUNCHING IN THE COLD SEASON
The ambient temperature, which is below 0 °C, causes:
џ
when the viscosity of the oil in the crankcase increases, the resistance of
cranking and the piston, and the rotation of gear transmission increase too;
џ
when the viscosity of diesel fuel increases, the fuel pressure, which is
supplied to the injector high-pressure fuel pump, decreases;
џ
when the energy of storage battery decreases - the torque, which is
developed by an electric starter when the diesel engine starts, reduces.
For reliable diesel engine starting at temperatures below 0 °C:
џ
use only high-quality winter fuel;
џ
drain the oil from the crankcase, heat it up and pour the warm oil into the
nozzle holes for oil;
џ
In order to heat the oil in the crankcase, use pre-heaters, which are based
on the hot water and steam using;
3
џ
unscrew the plug of the oil engine head hole, pour into the hole 2 sm of
engine oil, tighten the plug and start the engine immediately. During engine
operation the plug must be torqued tightly hold because the engine can
start to suck the dust, that will lead to its failure;
џ
hold the ignition key on the «START» position after the first outbreaks of
fuel in the cylinder, scroll starting engine for several seconds until you see
flashes (at this time the motor can not be operating on idles, but it can be
operating on lower turnovers);
џ
pay attention on the exhaust gases. If there are blue pillars of smoke from
the exhaust pipe of the muffler, it is "cold" fuel combustion.
CAUTION
!
In order to ensure easy starting engine, do not use an open
flame while heating oil in the crankcase, do not add volatile
liquids to the air intake, such as kerosene, petrol, white spirit,
as this can cause an explosion of fire engine.
ENGINE STOPPING
1. Turn off the electricity consumers and let the engine run at idle speed for 1-2
minutes.
2. Turn off the circuit breaker at the AC power panel.
3. Turn the ignition key to «STOP» (see fig. 9). After that an electromagnet
starts operating, which by cable will activate the motor stop lever.
4. In case of emergency, when the engine stop lever is not activated by the
described method in the preceding paragraph, press the plug on the engine
stop lever down to the «STOP» arrow (see fig. 8).
5. After stopping the engine, close the fuel valve - turn the fuel cock lever
(«FUEL COCK») to position «OFF» («CLOSE») (see pic. 6 and fig. 7).
6. Pull the recoil starter handle slowly (when the engine is completely stop-
ped!) until you feel the resistance (these are the intake and exhaust valves
of the engine), and let the handle go. This will prevent the engine from
corrosion during its storage (only ERS 4.6d model).
ENGINE'S RUNNING
One of the most important moments in the device's exploitation is new
engine's running. If the running of the engine is correct, its service life will
increase considerably.
WARNING
!
A sudden engine stoppage could lead to an undesirable
increase in temperature and it shortens engine's life.
WARNING
!
When the engine is stopping, decrease its turnovers slowly.
It is forbidden to stop the engine by the decompression valve
lever (only ERS 4.6d model), as this will inevitably lead to
failure of the engine.
