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 port main engine can also be started by pressing the MN ENG NO. 2 green pushbutton on
EOS console.
27. Press the STOP pushbutton (figure 4, item 9) on the prelube pump motor controller.
28. Start the port main engine by pressing and holding the ENGINE START (figure 15, 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 15, item 3).
! 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 port main engine control panel, check the LUBE OIL pressure gauge (figure 15, item 8).
31. Check/verify the following conditions:
a.
Port reduction gear bearing oil pressure (figure 13, item 8) rises to approximately 32 PSI (2.2 bar) as soon as the
engine starts.
b.
Port engine gauges and flow switch indicators are operating in the normal range.
c.
Engine coolant level in the port 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.
