Starting of the engine (Fig. 14)
The forest harvester is equipped with a
safety ignition system, which prevents the
harvester from moving with the engine being
started. It allows the start-up to take place
only when the drive pedal is not pressed.
The engine is started using the ignition key
E. Turn the key to the right to switch on the
ignition. The same position also operates
the engine glow. During the glow, the engine
will not start, and this is also displayed on
the Iqan display. When turning the ignition
key farther to the right, to position HS, the
engine starts.
With the throttle A in its rear position , the
engine runs at idle. In the center position, the
working revolutions are used. When pressed
forward, the diesel engine uses full revolu-
tions. Have the engine always idle before
switching the diesel off and on. The instruc-
tions on adjusting the revolutions are avai-
lable in the section Using the Iqan display.
Stopping of the engine
Before stopping of the engine, move the throttle into the idling position. The engine is stop-
ped using the electric stopper by turning the ignition key to position 0.
Beware of the movements of the harvester head when you switch off the diesel engine. When
the power is switched off, the harvester head controls switch off as well and the head may
return to its resting position from certain functions. These kinds of functions include, for
example, Head closed and Tilt down, depending on the type of the head. The harvester heads
often also contain pressurized batteries, potentially causing there to be enough power left
for head movements even after the power has been switched off. When finishing working it
is recommended to turn off harvesting computer and PC. In this case there is no danger that
even accidental use of harvesting head would cause unwanted movements in restarting.
When you turn the ignition key to the left of the 0 position and press it simultaneously down,
the vacuum pump of the oil tank switches on automatically. This is a way to protect the envi-
ronment and reduce oil waste in cases of hose breaks. The vacuum also should be used when
servicing the hydraulic system. Do not try to run the machine while the vacuum pump is on
since a vacuum causes cavitation and quickly damages the hydraulic pumps.
