The start will be automatically disengage after 45 seconds of cranking. Allow the starter to cool for 2 minutes before cranking again. Turbocharger damage can result if the engine rpm is not kept low until the oil gauge display verifies that the oil pressure is sufficient.
Note: Manually check engine oil prior to starting engine. Ensure that oil is in the safe range of the dipstick. For more information, refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Engine Oil Level - Check".
All forward/neutral/reverse switches must be in the NEUTRAL position in order to start the machine. If either switch is not in NEUTRAL position, the machine will not start.

Allow 2 minutes for starting motor to cool before cranking again.Turbocharger damage can result, if the engine rpm is not kept low until the engine oil light/gauge verifies the oil pressure is sufficient.
Follow Step 1 through Step 6 of the Engine Starting Procedure.A premeasured amount of ether will be automatically injected if the ambient conditions call for starting aid. The starting aid indicator will be illuminated on the Monitoring System Display.
Release the engine start switch key after the engine starts.Engine Starting with Cold Start Package (If Equipped)
