TORQUE REQUIREMENTS

The Torque Chart in this section consists of standard
torque values based on bolt diameter and grade, also
specifying dry and wet torque values in accordance with
recommended shop practices. This chart is provided as
an aid to the operator in the event he/she notices a condi-
tion that requires prompt attention during the walk-around
inspection or during operation until the proper service per-
sonnel can be notified. This section provides specific
torque values and periodic maintenance procedures with
a listing of individual components. Utilizing this Torque
Chart in conjunction with the preventive maintenance pro-
cedures, will enhance safety, reliability and performance
of the machine.

DUAL FUEL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

IT IS POSSIBLE TO SWITCH FROM ONE FUEL SOURCE TO THE
OTHER WITHOUT ALLOWING THE ENGINE TO STOP. EXTREME
CARE MUST BE TAKEN AND THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS
MUST BE FOLLOWED.

Changing from Gasoline to LP Gas.

1.

Start the engine from the ground control station.

2.

Open the hand valve on the LP Gas supply tank by
turning counterclockwise.

BE SURE ALL GASOLINE IS EXHAUSTED BEFORE SWITCHING
TO LP GAS.

3.

While the engine is operating, place the three posi-
tion LPG/GAS SELECT switch at the ground control
station to the center OFF position. Allow the engine
to operate, without load, until the engine begins to
‘stumble’ from lack of gasoline.

4.

As the engine begins to ‘stumble’, place the switch
to the LPG position, allowing the LP gas to be sent
to the fuel regulator.

Changing from LP Gas to Gasoline.

1.

With the engine operating on LP gas under a no
load condition, position the LPG/GAS SELECT
switch at the ground control station to the GAS
SELECT position.

2.

If the engine ‘stumbles’ because of a lack of gaso-
line, place the switch to the LPG position until the
engine regains smoothness, then return the switch

to the GAS SELECT position. Repeat as necessary
until the engine runs smoothly on gasoline.

3.

Close the hand valve on the LP gas supply tank by
turning clockwise.
