ENGINE OPERATION
DO NOT RUN THE ENGINE AT EXCESSIVE
SPEEDS. The maximum allowable high idle speed for
the Classic II is 1800 RPM, no load. Do NOT increase
the idle speed on the engine. Severe personal injury
and damage to the machine can result if it is operated
at speeds above the maximum rated speed.
Read and understand all safety instructions included in
the Deutz engine instruction manual that is shipped
with your Classic II.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
Check and fill the engine oil level:
1. Be sure the machine is on a level
surface.
2. Remove the engine oil dipstick and wipe it with a
clean cloth. Reinsert the dipstick and check the
level on the dipstick. See
Figure D.1
in the
Maintenance section of this manual.
3. Add oil (if necessary) to bring the level up to the full
mark. Do not overfill.
4. Replace the dipstick.
Check and fill the engine fuel tank:
Do not add fuel near an open flame,
welding arc or when the engine is run-
ning. Stop the engine and allow it to
cool before refueling to prevent spilled
fuel from vaporizing on contact with
hot engine parts and igniting. Do not
spill fuel when filling tank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up
and do not start engine until fumes have been elimi-
nated.
1. Remove the fuel tank cap.
2. Fill the tank to allow approximately 1/4 inch (5 mm)
of tank space for fuel expansion. DO NOT FILL
THE TANK TO THE POINT OF OVERFLOW.
3. Replace the fuel tank cap and tighten securely.
NOTE: USE DIESEL FUEL ONLY. Purchase diesel
fuel in quantities that will be used within 30 days, to
assure freshness.
STARTING THE ENGINE
NOTE: Remove all loads connected to the AC power
receptacles before starting the diesel engine.
1. Place the IDLER switch in the "HIGH" position, the
IGNITION switch in the ON position and then press
the START button.
2. When the engine starts running, observe the oil
pressure. If no pressure shows within 30 seconds,
stop the engine and consult the engine operating
manual.
If the engine protection warning light comes on during
cranking or after start up, the IGNITION switch must be
placed in the OFF position to reset the engine protec-
tion system.
