5. ENGINE STARTING
In cold engine starting at atmospheric temperature of below O°C
(32”F), pay attention to the following items:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
Do the preheating operation before cranking the engine with the
sta rte r.
Set the engine throttle lever or pedal to the l/3 position of the
full lever or pedal stroke.
If the engine does not start with the initial cranking, keep the
batteries stationary a while to recover their power and,
reattempt the preheating and the cranking operation.
In order to protect the starter, one time cranking must be limited
to within 10 seconds.
In cranking operation, when a phenomenon, that the starter
pinion and the flywheel ring gear engagement to repeated
disengage and engage take place, as ths is a sign of weakened
battery power, charge the batteries with an external electrical
source.
In an extreme cold temperature engine starting, do the engine
cranking a while with setting the throttle lever at no fuel
position to allow the engine rotating or travelling parts come to
an unrestricted condition from the adhesive cold lubricant, after
then do preheating and cranking to start the engine.
NOTKE:
Do not use starting “aids” in the air intake system. Such
r
aids can cause immediate engine damage..
