SERIES 40 ENGINE OPERATOR'S GUIDE
Preparations for Starting the
Engine the First Time.
Diesel engine exhaust and some
of its constituents are known to
the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, and other
reproductive harm.
□ Always start and operate an
engine in a well ventilated
area.
□ If operating an engine in
an enclosed area, vent the
exhaust to the outside.
□ Do not modify or tamper
with the exhaust system or
emission control system.
15. After all preparations are
completed, start the engine.
NOTE:
The small amount of rust preventive
which remains in the fuel system
will cause smoky exhaust for a few
minutes.
NOTE:
Before subjecting the engine to a
load or high speed, allow it to reach
normal operating temperature. Then
monitor the electronic control system
diagnostic data link for trouble codes.
