Operation Stopping the engine 【1】 Turn off the Ignitor switch to stop the engine. ・Fuel injection cut, throttle cut, and ignition cut functions to stop the engine have not been set yet in this prototype. 【2】 The ECU stops the fuel pump and emits Beep sound intermittently when it detects engine stop. 【3】...
Mounting & Dismounting Mounting & Dismounting ・When the fuel tubes are disconnected, open the Pressure release valve and release the residual pressure in the fuel system. ・Remove the four engine support bolts shown below. Disconnect the cable connectors and the fuel tubes before removing the bolts.
Page 25
Mounting & Dismounting How to tighten the screws ・When the Mounting plate(F) and the Engine mount are detached and are attached again, follow the procedures below to avoid giving uneven tension to the Reinforcement beams. 1. Loosen the two bolts, which are connecting the Generator mount and the Engine crankcase to make it possible to move the Generator mount.
