HARNESS AS-TRANSMISSION 2174627 - Caterpillar

Oil pressure should rise within 15 seconds after the engine starts. Do not increase engine speed until the oil pressure gauge indicates normal. If oil pressure is not indicated on the gauge within 15 seconds, DO NOT operate the engine. STOP the engine, investigate and correct the cause.
Move the throttle to approximately one quarter of the engine rpm.
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 until speed is gradually increased to high idle. Allow the white smoke to disperse before proceeding with normal operation. To minimize white smoke for cold weather starting, start the engine and allow the engine to idle for 30 seconds. Increase the rpm until the engine speed reaches 1200 rpm. Return the engine to low idle rpm.
Operate the engine at low load until all systems reach operating temperature. Check the gauges during the warm-up period.
