3.10.1 STARTING PROCEDURE

NOTICE
Machines destined for areas with very low ambient tempera-
tures are equipped with electronic pre-heating systems.
These pre-heating systems have to be activated as soon as
the engine has been stopped.
REMARK
Before starting read the Engine Operation Manual.
Observe the instructions for starting the Engine.
After repairs on the Diesel Engine or Starter Motor, make
sure that the ground cables are correctly connected
before starting the Engines.
Start the engine from the operator's seat only. Never
attempt to start the engine by shorting across starter ter-
minals. This can cause fire, serious injury or death.
Before each start, ensure that all controls are in neutral
position.
Be sure to sound the signal horn before starting, in order
to make your intention clear.
NOTICE
Before starting the engine and again before starting work,
pay attention to the hydraulic oil temperature. Refer to the
paragraph "Hydraulic Oil Warm-up" in this section.
