The rubber cock should be plugged except filling in the oil. Otherwise the rain, water,
dust and other dirt may enter into the diesel engine to cause the fast wearing of the inside
components. This will result in serious problem.
2.4.2 Electric start
1. Start (The preparation for this start is the same as the hand start.)
Insert the electric door key and make it in "OFF" position.
Set the speed handle of the diesel engine in "RUN" position.
Turn the start switch to "START" position clockwise
After the diesel engine starts, your hand should relieve the switch handle. Let the switch
restore to "ON" position automatically.
If the diesel engine doesn't start after 10 seconds, please wait for anther 15 seconds and
make the start again.
CAUTION:
If the start motor rotates for a long time and the voltage of the battery will go down to
cause the start motor running hysteresis.
When the diesel engine is in operation, always leave the start key in "ON" position.
2. Battery
Check the electrolyte level height of the battery once a month. When the liquid level goes
down to a lower mark, add some distilled water to make that the liquid level goes up to a
higher mark.
If the electrolyte in the battery is too less, the diesel engine will not start. Because the
electric power is insufficient at this time, it is necessary to keep the liquid is at a place
between the higher limit and the lower limit.
If the electrolyte in the battery is too much, the liquid may overflow and this may corrode
its surrounding components.
Attention should be paid to avoiding that the electrolyte is too much or is too less.
Charge the battery once a month.
