13. Check if the charging and the oil pressure indicators have turned off. If they
haven't, immediately turn off the motor and determine the cause.
14. The motor will warm-up. Stressing the diesel motor and its hydraulic system
while they are cold shortens their lifespan. Depending on the ambient
temperature, the diesel motor will warm up before it is stressed. Warm up the
motor at roughly 1500 rev/min for the period specified below.

11.2 Starting with an auxiliary battery and recharging the battery
The battery is located behind the protective
device on the left side. Here you may either connect
cables from the auxiliary battery or charging
equipment without having to open the hood.
The main switch must be in the ON position for
there to be a connection with the
electric system.
IMPORTANT
- This machine has a starting system with a 12 volt negative ground.
- When assisted with starting, only use a battery that has the same voltage.
11.3 Inspection when driving
You must make sure all the motor parts are working properly and smoothly
while the motor is running.
11.4 Cooling water
If the indicator enters the red zone on the cooling water temperature gauge, then
the motor has overheated. If the diesel motor has overheated, do not turn off
the motor (there is a risk of the refrigerant boiling instantly). Stop work with the
machine, and turn off all the hydraulic functions. Then reduce the motor speed
to 1500 rpm, and leave the motor running until an acceptable water temperature
