HYDRAULIC STARTING SYSTEMS.
a. The landing craft is fitted with a dual cranking system for the propulsion engines The inboard engine of each
.
propulsion unit is equipped with a hydraulic starting motor. See figure 5-9.
b. Energy required for hydraulic cranking is supplied by fluid stored under approximately 3,000 psi pressure in two
interconnected accumulators. These accumulators are charged first by a hand operated hydraulic pump, and then by
engine-driven pumps. They can not be overcharged during long periods of engine operation because of pressure control
built into the pumps. There is also a system relief valve set at 3,400 psi, which is the safe maximum pressure for this
system.

The following is an index of the maintenance instructions:
