COLD WEATHER START KIT
Y
Deutz Engine
D A N G E R
Do not use ether to start a Deutz engine that
has a COLD WEATHER START KIT installed.
The glow plug in the KIT can ignite the ether
and cause an explosion.
The COLD WEATHER START KIT in a Deutz
engine is a glow-plug type air-inlet-heater. The
glow plug is located at the front of the air intake
manifold just above the muffler. Use the heater
to start the engine when the engine temperature
is below 32°F (0°C). To use the heater:
1. Set the BATTERY switch to ON
2. EMERGENCY STOP ... UP FOR RUN
3. MASTER...................... OFF
4. ENGINE SPEED .......... SLOW
5. SELECTOR SWITCH... GROUND
NOTE: If the engine fails to start (at the next
step) in 20 seconds, turn the MASTER switch
to OFF and wait 60 seconds before turning
the MASTER switch to START again.
6. Hold the MANIFOLD HEATER switch ON
for about 60 seconds then turn and hold the
MASTER switch to START until the engine
starts (or for 20 seconds, whichever comes
first).
NOTE: Do not release the MANIFOLD
HEATER switch until the engine starts, even if
you have to pause 60 seconds between
starting attempts.

Ford Engine
C A U TIO N
Unplug the heater just before starting the engine.
That will keep you from driving off while the
heater is still plugged in.
The COLD WEATHER START KIT in Ford
engines is a freeze-plug type block-heater. The
engine is heated by convection of water that is
warmed by the heater. The heater is located in a
freeze-plug hole just below the engine exhaust
manifold. If the engine starting temperature is
expected to be 32°F (0°C) or below, plug the
power cord from the heater into 125 V ac, 600
watt source eight hours before starting the
engine.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM COLD WEATHER
WARM-UP KIT
The control switch for the HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
COLD WEATHER WARM-UP KIT is located on
the ground-control panel near the LIFT/SWING
CIRCUIT BREAKER and/or on the left side of
the platform-control box. When the ambient air
temperature is below 32°F (0°C) and boom
movement is sluggish because of cold hydraulic
oil, turn the WARM-UP switch to ON until the
hydraulic oil temperature in the hydraulic oil tank
reaches 50
°
F (10
°
C).
For the warm-up system to work, the engine
must be running and you must turn the WARM-
UP switch ON from the same station that you
started the engine. (If you started the engine
from the ground-control panel, turn the WARM-
UP switch on from the ground-control panel. If
you started the engine from the platform-control
box, turn it on there.)
NOTE: If you only have one WARM-UP switch
you must start the engine from the station
where the WARM-UP switch is located if you
want to use the WARM-UP switch.
While the warm-up system is ON, no machine
movement is possible.
