Stopping the engine immediately after it has been working under load, can result in overheating and accelerated wear of the engine components.Follow the stopping procedure, outlined below, to allow the engine to cool, and to prevent excessive temperatures in the turbocharger centerhousing which causes oil coking problems.
1. Before stopping the engine, operate at LOW IDLE for five minutes. This allows hot areas in the engine to cool gradually, extending engine life. 2. Turn the engine start switch key to OFF-LOCKED. On the Challenger 65D the throttle lever must be pulled all the way back to engine SHUTOFF position to stop the machine. Turn the start key to OFF position.Leaving Machine
