3.5 Cranking
When the engine is being used for the first time or if it
has not been used for a long period of time, perform
cranking before starting to distribute oil to all of the
parts. Using an engine which has been stored for a
long period of time without the cranking procedure
may result in engine seizure, since there will no longer
be oil on the moving parts after storage.

sure that all auxiliary machines are in a no-load
position.
