Stopping the engine
During longer breaks in operation, the engine must be warmed up at least once every fortnight. This prevents
corrosion damage in the engine. If you expect the engine to be unused for two months or more, it must be laid
up: Please refer to the “Laying up” chapter.
IMPORTANT! If there is a risk of frost, the coolant in the cooling system must have sufficient frost protec-
tion. Please refer to the “Maintenance, cooling system” chapter: A poorly charged battery can freeze and
burst.
Before stopping
Allow the engine to run for a few minutes without load
before stopping it. This permits the temperature in-
side the engine to even up, “after-boiling” is avoided,
at the same time as the turbocharger cools some-
what. This contributes to long service life without
malfunctions.
Stop
•
Disengage the clutch (if possible).
•
Depending on the equipment installed; press
the stop button and keep it depressed until the
engine has stopped, or turn the key to the stop
position. Release the key when the engine has
stopped.
After stopping
•
Check the engine and engine bay for leakage.
•
Turn off the main switches before any long stop-
page.
•
Carry out maintenance in accordance with the
schedule.
WARNING! Working with, or going close to a
running engine is a safety risk. Watch out for ro-
tating components and hot surfaces.
