HP935, VHP750, MHP825, XHP750, XP1060
PRIOR TO STARTING
1. Place the unit in a position that is as level as possible. The design
of the unit permits a 15 degree lengthways and sideways limit on out
of level operation. It is the engine, not the compressor, that is the limiting
factor.
When the unit has to be operated out of level, it is important to keep
the engine oil level near the high level mark (with the unit level).
CAUTION: Do not overfill either the engine or the compressor with oil.
2. Check the engine lubrication oil in accordance with the operating
instructions in the Engine Operator’s Manual.
3. Check the compressor oil level in the sight glass located on the
separator tank.
4. Check the diesel fuel level. A good rule is to top up at the end of each
working day. This prevents condensation from occurring in the tank.
CAUTION: Use only a No. 2–D diesel fuel oil with a minimum octane
number of 45 and a sulphur content not greater than 0,5%.
CAUTION: When refuelling:–
.
switch off the engine.
.
do not smoke.
.
extinguish all naked lights.
.
do not allow the fuel to come into contact with hot surfaces.
.
wear personal protective equipment.
5 Drain fuel filter water separator of water ensuring that any
released fuel is safely contained..
6. Check the radiator coolant level (with the unit level).
Comprobar el nivel del refrigerante del radiador (con la máquina
nivelada).
7. Open the service valve(s) to ensure that all pressure is relieved
from the system. Close the service valve(s).
8. CAUTION: Do not operate the machine with the canopy/doors in
the open position as this may cause overheating and operators to be
exposed to high noise levels.
9. Check the emergency stop. Rotate knob as indicated to release.
10.Close the manual relief valve inside the service door near the
emergency stop.
When starting or operating the machine in temperatures below or
approaching 0
C, ensure that the operation of the regulation system,
the unloader valve, the safety valve, and the engine are not impaired
by ice or snow, and that all inlet and outlet pipes and ducts are clear of
ice and snow.
