Keep engine speed low until the engine oil pressure registers on the gauge or the engine oil indicator light goes out. If it does not register or the light does not go out within ten seconds, stop the engine and investigate the cause before starting again. Failure to do so, can cause engine damage. |
- Allow a cold engine to warm up at low idle for at least five minutes.
- You can begin to operate the machine with a reduced load.
- When the oil pressure reaches the normal operating range and the temperature gauge begins to move, you may operate the machine at full load.
- Monitor the lights and gauges frequently during operation.
