6.3. STARTING THE DIESEL-ENGINE
Start-Up Under Normal Conditions:
Check the oil level in the diesel-engine
crankcase and the coolant level in the
radiator, as well as the presence of fuel
in the fuel tank.
IMPORTANT!
DO NOT start up the die-
sel-engine if the cooling system is not
filled up.
IMPORTANT!
Starting up the diesel-
engine and instrument control procedure
should only be initiated with the driver
being on the operator
’s seat.
CAUTION:
NEVER operate the tractor in
closed spaces.
1. Apply the parking brake on the tractor;
2. Set the gear shift lever (2) to the neu-
tral, and the step-down reducing gear
lever (9) into its extreme position (either
backward or forward);
3. Set the P.T.O. control lever (3) to the
position «Engaged»;
4. Set the "frame" switch (4) ON;
5. Set the fuel feed lever (5) into its mid-
position;
6. Push down hard on the clutch pedal
(6);
7. Turn the starter key (7) into position II
(«Start») and hold it in this position un-
til the diesel-engine picks up, but not
in excess of 15 s. Therewith, a start-
up warning lamp alights in the warning
light in-line panel (8) (refer to Sheet
32, Ref. 4). Once the diesel-engine
has started, the lamp should go off.
Should the diesel-engine fail to start,
repeat the starting procedure not ear-
lier than in
30…40 seс.
ATTENTION!
If the starter would not
switch on and the starter control unit
warning lamp blinks at a low frequency
(about 1,5 Hz), it means that the GB shift
lever is not in the neutral or there is a
break in the start-up interlock circuit. If
the lamp flickers at higher frequency
(about 3 Hz), the trouble is in the alterna-
tor circuit (terminal «W» or «~»).
8. Release the clutch pedal (6). When
the diesel-engine is running, check
operation of all the warning lights and
instrument readings (coolant tempera-
ture, oil pressure in diesel-engine,
storage batteries charging).
Let the diesel-engine run at 1000
r.p.m. until oil level stabilizes within
the operating range.
