GLOW PLUGS
1. Each cylinder is supplied with a glow plug which
serves to heat the combustion chamber.
2. To check the glow plugs, loosen the current
carrying flat wire between the plus-poles of the
glow plugs (
Figure 18
). Connect a D.C. test bulb
between the plus-pole of the battery and the
plus-pole of the glow plug. If the bulb lights up,
the glow plug is functioning properly.
3. Check all glow plugs and replace any faulty ones.
Figure 18: Glow plugs.
BOOSTER BATTERIES
CAUTION: Battery gas can explode.
Keep all flames and sparks away from batteries.
1. Before changing or using booster batteries, check battery
electrolyte level. Add distilled water if necessary.
2. Booster and main batteries must have the same voltage
rating.
3. First, connect positive (+) terminal of booster battery
to positive (+) terminal of main battery. Then, connect
negative (-) terminal of booster battery to ground on
the engine block (
see Figure 19
).
4. Remove booster battery after starting engine.
5. Sealed batteries: See manufacturer charging and
booster instructions.
SP 18-19. BATTERY CARE
1. Check electrolyte level every 50 hours or once per
month. Add distilled water to manufacturer’s recom-
mended level.
2. Batteries, cables and cable terminals should
be checked and cleaned every 100 hours.
Clean corrosion with a water and baking soda solution.
Flush with clean water. Tighten terminals and grease
them to inhibit corrosion.
3. Check the battery condition with a hydrometer every
600 hours.
P.T.O.
1. The electric clutch P.T.O. does not have any scheduled
maintenance points. However, the equipment the
P.T.O. powers may require maintenance. Consult the
manufacturer of the driven equipment.
SP20. WINTERIZING / OUT-OF-SERVICE
1. Marine sets:
a. Drain fresh water and seawater cooling systems
completely. Remember to shut off seacocks
before opening drain cocks.
b. Drain water supply lines and wet exhaust line.
c. Loosen the seawater pump cover and drain pump.
2. Industrial sets:
a. Drain and flush the radiator and cooling system.
Leave dry or refill with antifreeze-water mixture.
If refilling, start the engine and run to circulate
the antifreeze.
b. Fill the fuel tank or add biocide as per
manufacturer's instructions.
c. Seal the air cleaner inlet, exhaust opening,
crankcase breather pipe, and fuel tank vent with
plastic bags and tape.
d. Store the set in a dry, protected place. If unit
must be stored outside, be sure it is well protected
with a cover.
3. Marine and Industrial sets:
a. Change the crankcase oil and filter.
b. Loosen the alternator belt.
c. Disconnect and clean battery. Remove to warm
storage place if possible.
d. Clean outside of unit. Paint any scratched or
chipped surfaces. Put corrosion preventative on
all exposed metal surfaces.
SP21. EXHAUST ELBOW
Look for external corrosion and signs of exhaust
leakage.
