After
Starting
Engine
Note:
In
ambient
temperatures
from
0
to
60°C
(32
to
140°F),
the
warm-up
time
is
approximately
three
minutes.
In
temperatures
below
0°C
(32°F),
additional
warm-up
time
may
be
required.
When
the
engine
idles
during
warm-up,
observe
the
following
conditions:
Do
not
check
the
high
pressure
fuel
lines
with
the
engine
or
the
starting
motor
in
operation.
If
you
inspect
the
engine
in
operation,
always
use
the
proper
inspection
procedure
in
order
to
avoid
a
fluid
penetration
hazard.
Refer
to
Operation
and
Maintenance
Manual,
“General
hazard
Information”.
• Check for any fluid or for any air leaks at idle rpm
and at one-half full rpm (no load on the engine)
before operating the engine under load. This is not
possible in some applications.
• Allow the engine to idle for three to five minutes, or
allow the engine to idle until the water temperature
indicator begins to rise. Check all gauges during
the warm-up period.
Note:
Gauge readings should be observed and the
data should be recorded frequently while the engine
is operating. Comparing the data over time will help
to determine normal readings for each gauge.
Comparing data over time will also help detect
abnormal operating developments. Significant
changes in the readings should be investigated.

After
Starting
Engine
After
starting,
the
engine
may
be
held
at
low
speed
for
a
duration
between
1
and
25
seconds
to
allow
engine
systems
to
stabilize.
Holding
the
engine
speed
low
is
controlled
by
the
Electronic
Control
Module
(ECM).
The
duration
will
depend
on
ambient
temperature,
time
since
last
run
and
other
factors.
Note:
In
ambient
temperatures
from
0°C
to
60°C
(32°F
to
140°F),
the
warm-up
time
is
approximately
3
minutes.
In
temperatures
below
0°C
(32°F),
additional
warm-up
time
may
be
required.
When
the
engine
idles
during
warm-up,
observe
the
following
conditions:
Do not check the high-pressure fuel lines with the
engine or the starting motor in operation. If you
inspect the engine in operation, always use the
correct inspection procedure to avoid a fluid
penetration hazard. Refer to Operation and
Maintenance Manual, “General hazard Information”.
• Check for any fluid or for any air leaks at idle rpm
and at one-half full rpm (no load on the engine)
before operating the engine under load. This
check may not be possible in some applications.
• Allow the engine to idle for 3 to 5 minutes, or allow
the engine to idle until the water temperature
indicator begins to rise. Check all gauges during
the warm-up period.
Constant speed engines should be allowed to
operate at low idle for 3 minutes before used at
operational speed. If the low idle option is not
available, then operate the engine at operational
speed with no load for 2 minutes.
Note:
Gauge readings should be observed and the
data should be recorded frequently while the engine
is operating. Comparing the data over time will help
to determine normal readings for each gauge.
Comparing data over time will also help detect
abnormal operating developments. Significant
changes in the readings should be investigated.
