OPERATIONS AND CHECKS AFTER STARTING ENGINE
WARNING
If there has been any abnormal actuation or trouble, turn the starting switch key to the OFF position.
If the work equipment is operated without warming the machine up sufficiently, the response of the work equipment to the
movement of the control lever will be slow and the work equipment may not respond as the operator desires, so always carry
out the warming-up operation. Particularly in cold areas, be sure to carry out the warm-up operation completely.
BREAKING-IN THE MACHINE
CAUTION
Your Komatsu machine has been thoroughly adjusted and tested before shipment. However, operating the machine under severe
conditions at the beginning can adversely affect the performance and shorten the machine life.
Be sure to break-in the machine for the initial 100 hours (as indicated by the service meter).
During break-in operations, follow the precautions described in this manual.
Idle the engine for 5 minutes after starting it up.
Avoid operation with heavy loads or at high speeds.
Immediately after starting the engine, avoid sudden starts, sudden acceleration, unnecessary sudden stops, and
sudden changes in direction.
NORMAL OPERATION
After starting the engine, do not immediately start operations. First, perform the following operations and checks.
NOTICE
Do not suddenly accelerate the engine before the warming-up operation is
completed.
