Caterpillar SEBU 6336, (2002), SEBU 5678 (2003),Recommends that, proper operation and maintenance are a key factor in obtaining the maximum life of the engine. The direction in the above series of manuals lower the operating cost. The time needed for the engine to reach the normal mode of the operation is usually less than the time taken for a walk around the inspection of the engine.After the engine is started and the cold low idle operation is completed, the engine can be operated with rated speed and low power, the engine will reach the normal operating temperature faster when operated at rated speed and the low power demand than when ideal at no load..Typically the engine will be up to operating temperature in a few minutes. Range reading should be observed and data recorded frequently while the engine is operating. Comparing the data over time help determine will help determine the normal reading for each gauge and help detects normal operating development, significant changes in the reading should be investigated. The maintenance guide illustrates the equipment care, steps and instructions, they are grouped by servicing intervals, items in the lubrication and maintenance chart, use the service to determine servicing period,.calender intervals may also be used instead of service intervals. They provide more convenient servicing schedules and approximate the indicated service hour meter reading.
Recommended service should always be performed at the intervals that occur first.
The most sensitive area of a machine is the axial relation of the machine coupling, all affects of vibration are caused through the transmission arising from the co-axial relation of the coupling.In order to obtain the actual concentricity of the machine alignment should be conducted.
