RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE
The engine is delivered by the factory
in the running order. However, during
operation the following indications should
be observed:
1 -During running-in (first 50 working
hours) and throughout the engine lifetime,
carry out the maintenance in compliance
with the intervals established by the ma-
nufacturer (see "Engine maintenance"
2 -If the engine is not used regularly, start
it after each month of inactivity and run
it at minimum speed until the operating
temperature (70÷80°C) is reached.
3 -Avoid using the engine at the highest
speed for prolonged periods during run-
ning-.in.
4 -When starting the engine for the first
time, run it at no-load for a few minutes
and make sure that the oil pressure value
matches the one stated in the table (see
"Specifications" - "Lubrication circuit").
OPERATING THE ENGINE UNDER SPECIFIC CONDITIONS
The engine performance is affected by
fuel temperature, the temperature and
relative humidity of incoming air and
altitude.
When using the engine at high altitudes
and high air and fuel temperatures, the
output is reduced.
For further information contact a VM MO-
TORI S.P.A. assistance centre.
