Do not crank the engine for more than 30 seconds. Allow the starter to cool for two minutes before cranking again.Turbocharger (if equipped) damage can result, if the engine rpm is not kept low until the engine oil light/gauge verifies the oil pressure is sufficient.
The low air pressure alarm should sound until air pressure is normal before the parking brake is released, or the transmission control lever is moved from NEUTRAL.Warning lights for supplemental steering and wheel brakes will temporarily light up until the engine oil pressure rises.Engine Starting Below 0°C (+32°F) (If Equipped with Ether Starting Aid)
Inject starting aid (ether), only while cranking the engine, or after initial start-up, until the engine is running smoothly.Use sparingly, excessive ether without cranking can cause piston and ring damage.Wait approximately two seconds before injecting again.Use ether for cold starting purposes only.After every 30 seconds of engine cranking, allow two minutes for starting motor to cool before cranking again.Turbocharger (if equipped) damage can result, if the engine rpm is not kept low until the engine oil light/gauge verifies the oil pressure is sufficient.

A coolant heater, fuel heater, jacket water heater or extra battery capacity may be required.At temperatures below -23°C (-10°F), consult your Caterpillar dealer, or refer to the Operation & Maintenance Manual for Cold Weather Recommendations, SEBU5898, available from your Caterpillar dealer.Engine Starting with Jumper Cables
Batteries give off flammable fumes that can explode resulting in personal injury.Prevent sparks near the batteries. They could cause vapors to explode. Do not allow jumper cable ends to contact each other or the machine.Do not smoke when checking battery electrolyte levels.Electrolyte is an acid and can cause personal injury if it contacts skin or eyes.Always wear eye protection when starting a machine with jumper cables.Improper jumping procedures can cause an explosion resulting in personal injury.Always connect the battery positive (+) to battery
