INTRODUCTION
The SABB-L-DIESEL, types L2.093LB, L3.139LB, L4.186LB is based
upon the LISTER PETTER engine types LPW2, LPW3 AND LPW4
and adapted for life boat propulsion conforming to the latest
requirements incl. SOLAS 1974, 1983 AMENDMENTS.
It is essential that the operators read carefully the main
points in this manual before the engine is put into service.
Reference is made to:
"CHECKS BEFORE STARTING", "STARTING", "OPERATION" and "STOP".
The engine must be able to start and operate under the most
severe conditions. Therefore the engine must be carefully
maintained in accordance with this manual.
The engine should be started and tested at regular intervals
according to the rules for lifeboat engines.
