Use key switch (1) in order to operate the parking brake. Engage parking brake switch 2.
Do not engage the starting motor when flywheel is turning. Do not start the engine under load.If the engine fails to start within 30 seconds, release the starter switch or button and wait two minutes to allow the starting motor to cool before attempting to start the engine again.
Turn key switch (1) to the ON position. The system performs an automatic self-diagnosis. When you turn on key switch (1), the test is performed. If the test is complete without any faults, proceed to the next step. If the system detects a fault, check the electrical system. Complete all of the necessary repairs before you start the engine.
The indicator for the air inlet heater is positioned on the upper digital display window. The indicator for the air inlet heater will come on during the next cycle before engine start-up.
When the indicator light is on, the air inlet heater is in the ON or "preheat cycle". Do not attempt to start or crank the engine until the light turns off.
When the indicator light goes off, turn the engine start switch key to the start position in order to start the engine.
Crank the engine. When the engine starts, release the engine start switch key.
If the engine start key switch is turned to the OFF position before the engine is started, or if the engine does not start, allow the air inlet heater to cool for two minutes before the next attempt to start the engine.Do not crank the engine for more than 30 seconds. Allow the starter to cool for two minutes before cranking the engine again. Turbocharger damage can result if the engine speed is not kept low until the engine oil indicator light or the engine oil gauge verifies that there is sufficient oil pressure.
Allow the engine to idle for three to five minutes, or allow the engine to idle until the water temperature indicator begins to rise. The engine should run at low idle smoothly before increasing to high idle. Allow the white smoke to disperse before proceeding with normal operation.
Operate the engine at low load until all systems reach operating temperature. Check the gauges during the warm-up period.When you are starting the engine at temperatures below -18°C (-0°F), the use of additional cold weather starting aids is recommended. A coolant heater, a fuel heater, an oil heater, or extra battery capacity may be required.Reference: Before you start the engine at temperatures below -23 °C (-10 °F), consult your Caterpillar dealer or refer
