27. Press the STOP pushbutton (figure 4, item 9) on the prelube pump motor controller.
WARNING
High noise levels are present in the engine room and AMS 1 when the engines are operat-
ing. Hearing protection must be worn at all times when the engines are operating. Failure
to comply can result in permanent loss of hearing.
NOTE
The starboard main engine can also be started by pressing the MN ENG NO. 1 green pushbutton
on EOS console.
28. Start the starboard main engine by pressing and holding the ENGINE START (figure 4, item 3) pushbutton until the
engine starts.
NOTE
The engine should start within 10 seconds.
29. When the engine starts, release the ENGINE START pushbutton (figure 4, item 4).
! CAUTION
If pressure is not indicated on the lube oil pressure gauge within 30 seconds after the main engine
starts, stop the engine and determine the cause. Failure to comply could result in serious engine
damage.
Do not increase engine speed above idle until the fresh water temperature gauge above the gov-
ernor indicates at least 120 F (49 C). Failure to comply could result in serious engine damage.
Engine operation at less than 50% load increases turbocharger gear train wear and adds to main-
tenance requirements.
30. At the starboard main engine control panel, check the LUBE OIL pressure gauge (figure 3, item 10).
31. Check/verify the following conditions:
a.
Starboard reduction gear bearing oil pressure (figure 2, item 7) rises to approximately 32 PSI (2.2 bar) as soon as
the engine starts.
b.
Starboard engine gauges and flow switch indicators are operating in the normal range.
c.
Engine coolant level in the starboard main engine coolant expansion tank sight glass (figure 1, item 1) is between
LOW and FULL in the RUN range (figure 1, item 4). If the coolant is not between LOW and FULL, add coolant
through the fill cap (figure 1, item 3) until the proper level is achieved. Proper engine coolant is a 50/50 mix of
ethylene glycol antifreeze and water.
d.
Proper engine operating conditions are displayed on the machinery monitoring system.
