EFORE STARTING
1. Before initial start-up, prepare battery for operation if not already
done. See section 4.7.
2. With the compressor standing level, check the level of the engine
oil. Add oil, if necessary, to the upper mark on dipstick. Consult
the Engine Operation Manual for the type and viscosity grade of
the engine oil.
3. Check the level of the compressor oil. The pointer of oil level
gauge (OLG- Fig. 2.3) should register in the green range. Add oil
if necessary. See section 4.3 for the oil to be used.
Before removing oil filler plug (FP - Fig. 2.3), ensure
that the pressure is released by opening an air outlet
valve.
4. Check that the fuel tank contains sufficient fuel. Top up, if
necessary. Consult the Engine Operation Manual for the type of
fuel.
5. Drain any water and sediment from the fuel filter until clean fuel
flows from the drain cock.
6. Press vacuator valves (VV- Fig. 2.3) of the air filters to remove
dust.
7. Check the air filter service indicators (VI- Fig. 2.3). If the yellow
piston reaches the red marked service range, replace the filter
element. Reset the indicator by pushing the reset button.
8. Check water level in engine water top tank. Top up, if necessary.
Consult the Engine Operation Manual for water/coolant
specifications.
