the temperatures drop below 15°F (-9°C). As it gets
colder, these wax crystals turn to gel. This thicker
substance cannot pass the fuel filter, so the engine may
run intermittently, or may not start at all.
COLD WEATHER SAFEGUARDS
•Park the vehicle or equipment indoors when not in
use.
•Use a block heater or glow plugs.
•Maintain the vehicle's battery; this will make it easier
to start a diesel engine in cold weather.
•In below zero temperatures a fuel line deicer product
may need to be used.
•Check the fuel filter regularly to insure that it
contains no water.
•Vanguard™ Premium Synthetic Oil is suitable for
use from -40°F to 110°F (-40°C to 43°C).
•Drain the moisture from the tank when it is warm
from extended operation.
•For additional engine precautions, consult the Engine
Operator’s Manual.
5.8.1.2 MACHINE OPERATION
At an extremely cold temperature, the viscosity of
hydraulic fluid and lubrication oil may increase and the
torque of starter may exceed its permissible value,
hindering proper starting. Additional care should be taken
under consideration when operating the package in
extreme cold weather environments or ambient
temperatures.
•Run machine with no load at full speed using the
generator switch to warm up the machine.
•Heater blanket is available for air inlet solenoid ( also
see
NOTE
on this page
for cold weather kit option).
•For engine precautions, consult the Engine Operator’s
Manual.
5.8.2 HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION
5.8.2.1 ENGINE OPERATION
High compartment temperatures can be caused by high
ambient temperatures, small engine room, soundproof
cases and other reasons. Among these the most
important factor is the temperature of the intake and
cooling air. Reduce load duty cycle to less than 60%
when operating in ambient temperatures above 104°F
(40°C).
Consult
Table 5F
for fuel, lubrication oil and cooling
requirements under extreme temperatures. The standard
NOTE
If operating the machine in high
humidity, the drain valve can be left
partially open to relieve water build-up
during operation. This water may contain
a small amount of oil.
Consult
Section A.5
, for order number.
NOTE
The effect of humidity should be taken
into consideration when operating in
areas with high temperatures.
