There are two green START buttons
Each buttons starts the engine from the battery without the involvement of the control unit,

as it operates directly on the starting motor control relay.

The START 1 button commands the starting motor from battery 1

The START 2 button commands the starting motor from battery 2

Start-up

The START 1 (2) control button starts the motor

No indicator light comes on on the control unit.

Do not hold down the button for any longer than 5 seconds to avoid

damaging the starter relay. If it is necessary to repeat the start-up

operation, release the button and try with the other one. Do not press

both buttons simultaneously or you will damage the batteries.

Switch-off

Switching-off methods:

-

Operate the motor’s mechanical control directly, i.e. the same lever operated by the

electric stop device - refer to the engine instructions manual to identify the exact

position. The switch-off lever (provided by the engine manufacturer) is located in

non-hazardous positions, as this is an occasional, emergency manoeuvre.

-

Press the STOP button on the control unit, if it is working


WHEN APPROACHING THE MOTOR, BE VERY CAREFUL TO AVOID ACCIDENTAL CONTACTS

WITH HEATED PARTS SUCH AS THE EXHAUST, THE MANIFOLD AND THE OIL PAN!

Do not use the emergency start operating mode unless it is strictly necessary, as it is not

possible to use the key to switch off.

SHUTDOWN

The key-operated selector switch has three positions: ”MAN - AUTO – 0”

Normally it is left in the AUTO position with the key removed.


If the selector switch is set to the “0” position the engine cannot be started in automatic

mode; if the engine is already running in manual or automatic mode, it will switch off.

If the selector switch is in the “MAN” or shutdown position “0”, the two

green emergency start buttons are still enabled to start the engine because

they operate the starting relay directly.

The programming instructions for the control unit are supplied along with the electrical

panel.

Incorrect programming of the control unit may preclude the operation of the fire diesel

pump.
