Starting the engine
23
Never use start spray
WARNING!
Never use start spray or similar prod-
ucts as a starting aid. They may cause an explo-
sion in the inlet manifold. Injury may also result.
Starting with auxiliary batteries
WARNING!
Batteries (especially auxiliary batter-
ies) contain oxyhydrogen which is highly explo-
sive in contact with air. A spark, which can be
formed if the auxiliary batteries are wrongly con-
nected, is enough to make a battery explode and
cause damage.
1. Check that the auxiliary batteries are connected
(series or parallel) so that the rated voltage corre-
sponds to the engine system voltage.
2. First connect the red (+) jumper cable to the auxil-
iary battery, then to the discharged battery. Then
connect the black (-) jumper cable to the auxilliary
battery and finally to a place
a short distance
from the discharged batteries
e.g. the main
switch negative cable or the negative cable’s start
motor connector.
3. Start the engine.
WARNING!
Do not disturb the connections dur-
ing the start attempt (risk of arcing), and do not
stand leaning over any of the batteries.
4. Disconnect the jumper cables in reverse order.
WARNING!
The permanent standard battery
cables must absolutely not be disconnected.
