Starting the Engine

CAUTION: For safety reasons, sound horn before starting the engine or operating the combine. Start engine from operator's seat only.

Turn starter switch to position III. As soon as engine starts, release key. Never hold the key in the starting position for longer than 20 seconds.

If key switch is released to position I before engine starts, wait until engine stops turning before trying again.

IMPORTANT: If engine does not start within 20 seconds, wait at least two minutes before trying again. Do not try to start engine more than four times.

NOTE: With temperatures lower than 0°C, an intake air heater is used to increase intake manifold air temperature to improve cold starting automatically through the ECU, after starter switch has been turned to position II. During this operation an indicator light (A) turns on. After this light turns off it is possible to start the engine (CWS).
