Warm-Up Operation - Mitsubishi S16R Series Operation & Maintenance Manual

After the engine has started, close
4
the main valve of starting air tank.

Warm-up Operation

Stay away from rotating parts during
operation.
* Otherwise you may get caught in the rotating
parts and seriously injured.
Do not apply excessive load when the
engine is cold.
* Otherwise, it could cause a failure.
* If the engine is driven at an idle speed in the low
load range for a prolonged period of time,
unburnt fuel may accumulate in the flue and
explode.
When operating at low load (less than
30%), limit the operation to an hour or
less.
* Prolonged warm-up operation causes carbon
build-up in the cylinders that leads to
incomplete combustion.
* After one hour operation at a low load, operate
the engine at 50% or more of rated load for 30
minutes or longer to prevent the formation of
carbon deposits.
While the engine is warming up,
check the connections for leak (fuel,
engine oil, coolant and exhaust gas).
If an abnormality is found, stop the
engine immediately.
* Otherwise, a fire or damage to the devices may
occur.
* It could lead to carbon monoxide intoxication or
environmental pollution.
