Restoring Engine to Service
1. Remove the valve rocker cover(s) and pour at least one-half gallon of oil, of the
same grade as used in the crankcase, over the rocker arms and push rods.
2. Reinstall the valve rocker cover(s).
3. Remove the covers and tape from all of the openings of the engine, fuel tank,
and electrical equipment. Do not overlook the exhaust outlet.
4. Wash the exterior of the engine with fuel oil to remove the rust preventive.
5. Remove the rust preventive from the flywheel.
6. Remove the paper strips from between the pulleys and the belts.
7. Check the crankcase oil level. Fill the crankcase to the proper level with the heavy-
duty lubricating oil recommended under Lubricating Oil Specifications.
8. Fill the fuel tank with the fuel specified under Diesel Fuel Oil Specifications.
9. Close all of the drain cocks and fill the engine cooling system with clean soft
water and a rust inhibitor. If the engine is to be exposed to freezing
temperatures, add a high boiling point type antifreeze solution to the cooling
system (the antifreeze contains a rust inhibitor).
10. Install and connect the battery.
11. Service the air cleaner as outlined under Air System.
12. Prepare the generator for starting.
13. Remove the inspection hole cover and inspect the clutch release lever and link
pins and the bearing ends of the clutch reliease shaft. Apply engine oil
sparingly, if necessary to these areas.
14. After all of the preparations have been completed, start the engine. The small
amount of rust preventive compound which remains in the fuel system will
cause a smoky exhaust for a few minutes.
NOTE: Before subjecting the engine to a load or high speed, it is advisable to
check the engine tune-up.
