General Maintenance Instructions
Maintenance Schedule
Although specific regular maintenance operations have been given in the maintenance schedule, you are
reminded that it is the environment in which the engine operates which defines the maintenance
schedule. You must therefore realize that, if the engine operates under extreme conditions, intervals
between operations should be shortened. Use the following schedule to establish your own schedule and
adapt it to your particular operating conditions. If you are unsure of the need to shorten the
recommended maintenance periods, contact your local Ingersoll-Rand dealer.
Before any maintenance operations occur on the engine, disconnect the battery to prevent
inadvertent starting.
Daily Maintenance Checks
These checks must be carried out every day or before every start-up (except repeat starts on the same
day)
Check the oil level in the engine oil sump and top off if necessary.
Check the fuel level and fill up if necessary.
Check the coolant level and top off if necessary.
Check the pipe work for leaks and deterioration.
Check for unrestricted airflow on the parts to be ventilated.
After the engine has been started:
Check the color of the exhaust gases (the emission of black gas indicates that the engine is
malfunctioning)
Check for oil, fuel, or coolant leaks.
Check for unusual noises and vibration.
