Check that there are no unusual sounds or unusual heat. Ifyou find a defect, immediately stop the engine and make the necessary repairs. When the engine starts and increases rotation speed, it can momentarily rotate at a very high speed. This is caused by torsional vibration of the camshaft. In that case, let the engine quickly increase speed to the specified rotation setting. When it rotates at the specified speed, the torsional vibration will go away. ‘1~ Run the engine without load for about 10 minutes to warm it up, 2- If you run the engine at low load for more than 3 hours, the combustion worsens and fouling of the ‘combustion chamber, the exhaust pipe and the turbocharger increases. Obey these instructions: If you use marine diese! oil, run the engine at a load factor of 15 % or higher. If you use heavy fuel oil: + -Run the engine at a load factor of 15 % or more, if the engine has an al temperature control device that heats the supply air. + = Run the engine at a load factor of 20 % or more, if the cooling water in the supply alr cooler and the lubricating oil cooler is from a seawater cooling assembly. NOTICE When running at a low load factor, switch to M.D.O. operation. 3- If humidity is high, the air moisture can condense and result in a large amount of drainage. This is normal In this case, run the engine with an open drain cock of the supply air cooler. 4- Measure the engine performance at least once a day. Record the results.

AWARNING? 4- Do not open the side cover of the crankcase for at least 10 minutes after the engine stops. Fresh air that rushes in can cause an explosion AXCAUTION High temperature hazard Immediately after the engine stops, the whole engine is hot. Do not burn yourself. Make sure that your hands, your body or your clothing do not touch the turbocharger, the exhaust manifold, the exhaust pipes or the engine body. When you drain oil from the hot engine, make sure that you do not come in contact with the including splashes of oil. When you disassemble the cooling water system while the engine is still hot, vapor or hot water can spurt out and burn you. Wait until the engine becomes cool, then wrap the part that you want to remove with cloth and slowly loosen it. Immediately repair any defects of the running engine. 2.
