The maintenance guidelines found in the Cummins Operation &
Maintenance manual is recommended for the engine. When followed, it will
help with a longer life, better performance and more cost efficient operations.
A good maintenance schedule begins with a daily awareness of the engine and
its various systems.
The engine is equipped with an intake manifold grid heater. The grid heater
helps engine starting in cold weather. Intake manifold air temperature is moni-
tored by the Electronic Control Module on the engine. If intake manifold tem-
perature is below specified level (approximately 40º F.) manifold grid heater
will be activated. Grid heater activation is indicated by the
WAIT TO START
indicator lamp.
WARNING: Use of ether starting fluids may cause an
explosion upon grid heater activation.
With throttle in idle position, turn ignition to the
ON
position allowing
WAIT TO START
lamp to extinguish. Turn key to the
START
position.
When the engine starts the grid heater will again energize for a time period
determined by the intake air temperature and the fuel temperature. Allow
engine to idle with no load for three to five minutes. The engine coolant tem-
perature should be up to normal operating range (140º F/60 º C to 212º F/100º
C) before operating engine under full throttle.
NOTE: It is not recommended to idle the engine for long
periods of time. This will simply waste fuel and annoy
neighbors. Consistent periods of long idle may cause dam-
age to the engine.
The engine block heater may need to be plugged in two to three hours prior
to starting. The engine block heater is rated at 1,000 watts ISC, 110 Volts AC
and requires the motorhome be plugged into shore power or have the generator
running. It is not necessary to leave the block heater plugged in for long peri-
ods of time. The block heater requires about 7.5 to 10 Amps to operate.
