Engine
Operation
Correct
operation
and
maintenance
are
key
factors
in
obtaining
the
maximum
life
and
economy
of
the
engine.
If
the
directions
in
the
Operation
and
Maintenance
Manual
are
followed,
costs
can
be
minimized
and
engine
service
life
can
be
maximized.
The
operation
of
the
engine
at
no
load
or
light
load
should
be
avoided
or
reduced
to
a
minimum
period.
Excessive
no
load
or
light
load
operation
of
the
engine
will
result
in
only
partly
burnt
fuel.
Partly
unburnt
fuel
will
cause
high
carbon
build
up
on
the
injector
nozzles,
cylinder
head
valves,
pistons,
and
rings.
No
load
operation
and
or
multiple
start/stop
events
in
colder
ambient
conditions
can
cause
the
emission
of
white
smoke
from
the
exhaust,
which
is
a
result
of
partly
unburnt
fuel
due
to
the
low
cylinder
temperatures.
No
load
operation
should
be
avoided
and
multiple
start/stop
events
kept
to
a
minimum.
Perkins
does
not
recommend
that
an
engine
is
operated
on
loads
of
less
than
the
values
that
are
listed
in
Table
.

Gauge readings (if equipped) should be observed
and the data should be recorded frequently while the
engine is operating. Comparing the data over time
will help to determine normal readings for each
gauge. Comparing data over time will also help
detect abnormal operating developments. Significant
changes in the readings should be investigated.

Fuel
Conservation
Practices
The
efficiency
of
the
engine
can
affect
the
fuel
economy.
Perkins
design
and
technology
in
manufacturing
provides
maximum
fuel
efficiency
in
all
applications.
Follow
the
recommended
procedures
in
order
to
attain
optimum
performance
for
the
life
of
the
engine.
• Avoid spilling fuel. Fuel expands when the fuel is
warmed up. The fuel may overflow from the fuel
tank. Inspect fuel lines for leaks. Repair the fuel
lines, as needed.
• Be aware of the properties of the different fuels.
Use only the recommended fuels.
• Avoid unnecessary running at a low load. If the
engine is not under load, the engine should be
shut down.
• Observe the air cleaner service indicator
frequently. The air cleaner elements should be
replaced when the air cleaner elements are dirty.
• Maintain the electrical systems. One damaged
battery cell will overwork the alternator. This will
consume excess power and excess fuel.
• Ensure that the drive belts are correctly adjusted.
The drive belts should be in good condition.
• Ensure that all of the connections of the hoses are
tight. The connections should not leak.
• Ensure that the driven equipment is in good
working order.
• Cold engines consume excess fuel. Utilize heat
from the jacket water system and the exhaust
system, when possible. Keep cooling system
components clean and keep cooling system
components in good repair. Never operate the
engine without water temperature regulators. All of
these items will help maintain operating
temperatures.
