PREPARATION FOR A FIRST TIME START
www.rtrucks.ru
Correct torque on the high pressure lines is critical. Incorrect
torques could result in leaks or lack of power due to restricted
fuel flow.
1. Make sure that all high-pressure and low-pressure lines are securely tightened.
2. If equipped with a hand pump on the fuel/water separator, work the hand pump 50 times.
NOTE:
There should be a strong resistance in the hand pump, caused by the pressure build-up
within the fuel system.
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.
3. Crank the engine for 30 seconds at a time, but no longer. Wait at least two minutes. The
engine should start within four 30-second attempts.
To avoid injury from the sudden release of a high-pressure
hose connection, wear a face shield or goggles.
4. If the engine still does not start, open the high-pressure lines and bleed the air from the fuel
system while cranking. Tighten the high-pressure lines and repeat the priming procedure.
