STARTING / STOPPING DIESEL ENGINE AND COMPRESSOR
– NEW CONTROL BOX
(INTRODUCED: 29/06/16) Note: Wiring harness has blue trace for ID. Not interchangeable
to previous version i.e., key ignition starts.
STARTING THE DIESEL ENGINE
1. Check the COMPRESSOR ROCKER SWITCH is set to the OFF position (centre position).
2. Press the ON/OFF/GLOW rocker switch to the LOWER POSITION
– this is the Glow hold, and it will
disengage if you release. Do not hold this position for longer than 15 seconds. The system could be
damaged should you extend the time beyond the 15 seconds. Releasing glow hold will leave the system
in OFF position (middle position).
3. Ensure ON/OFF/GLOW Switch still in ON position (Upper position). Start the engine by depressing the
START SWITCH
– The engine should turn on immediately. Hold the switch for no longer than 10
seconds.
4. If the engine does not start, check the fuel tap if there is one and repeat the process described in 2 and
3 above. The maximum number of attempts should be limited to 4 and after this; the operator should
seek assistance from a mechanic.
5. Allow the engine to run at no load for 2-3 minutes. This will allow the engine to warm up and lubrication
system to be fully operational before the load is applied.
