2. Operation and Management Inspection after Starting the Engine Check the pressure of the engine lubrication system by using the engine oil pressure gauge mounted on the apparatus while the engine is in operation. If the oil pressure is low on oil pressure gauge, immediately stop the engine. In addition, make sure that the recharge alarm indicator lamp of the alternator is turned off while the engine is operating. 1. Tightly connect the +/- terminals to prevent gaps between them. The sheath of battery connection cables should not be damaged or broken. 2.
If the recharge alarm indicator lamp suddenly turns on or blinks during engine operation and the engine stops, fix the fault of the electric apparatus. 3. If color or odor of exhaust gas is unusual during operation, stop the engine, diagnose the cause and fix the fault. 4. Check the engine status through the alarm indicator lamp and gauges mounted on the apparatus during operation. Engine Oil Pressure If the engine oil pressure is not consistent at idle or does not reach the reference value while the engine is operating in high speed mode, immediately stop the engine and check the oil level and leakage.
Coolant Temperature Operating an engine with insufficient coolant temperature increases fuel consumption, abrasion of the cylinder liner, shortening the engine's life span. Revolutions per Minute (rpm) In the electronic control engine, the engine control unit (ECU) prevents the engine from being operated at too high rpm over the specifications to protect the engine. The memory of ECU has various functions which cannot be changed by operators, such as fuel flow control, ignition time delay, and blocking of fuel and ignition. 2 - 5
