Diesel engine with electric starter system
Starting
The preparation of the diesel engine for the electric starting system is the same as the manual recoil type
．
a. Open the fuel cock
．
b. Set the speed governor lever to the start position.
c. Turn the start switch clockwise to the“Start”position
．
d. If the engine is started
，
immediately remove your hand away from the key switch
．
e. If the engine does not start after 10 seconds
，
wait awhile (about 15 seconds) before tying to start the
engine again
．
If you run the starter motor to long
，
the voltage of the accumulator will drop and the motor may be damaged
．
Keep the key switch in the “ON” position
Battery
a. Always check the liquid level of the battery every month
，
if the level is lower than the low limit mark
，
refill
the battery with distilled water till you reach the upper limit mark
．
If the liquid level in the battery is to low
，
the electric starter will not function to its best potential
．
Always keep
the level of the liquid in the baaery between the upper and lower linits
．
If there is too much liquid
，
the liquid
will splash onto other neary parts thereby mining the battery
．
Cold starting
If the engine is difficult to start in winter,take off the rubber seal plug and put 2cc of machine oil into
the hole
．
Notice ：
Engines supplied to the Torrid Zone will not contain the rubber plug
．
A solid plug is provided instead
