After Stopping Engine
- Check the engine crankcase oil level. While the prelube pump is on, maintain the oil level between the "ADD" and "FULL" marks on the oil level gauge.
- If necessary, perform minor adjustments. Repair any leaks and tighten loose bolts.
- Note the service hour meter reading. Perform the maintenance that is listed in this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Maintenance Interval Schedule".
- Fill the fuel tank in order to help prevent accumulation of moisture in the fuel. Do not overfill the fuel tank.

- Allow the engine to cool. Check the coolant level.
- If freezing temperatures are expected, check the coolant for protection against freezing. The cooling system must be protected against freezing to the lowest expected outside temperature. Add the proper coolant/water mixture, if necessary.
- Perform all required periodic maintenance on all driven equipment. Refer to the instructions that are provided by the OEM of the driven equipment.
Note: If a jacket water heater is installed, check the jacket water heater for proper operation.
