automatically when the diesel temperature is higher than 24℃.
2.4 Start
When start conditions are available, turn the electric key to start the engine. If the engine can’t be started
within (5~10) s, wait for 1 min before the next start attempt. If three successive starting attempts fail, do not
start the engine until the fault has been identified and eliminated. After the engine is started, notice the
instruments, and check that the oil pressure gauge works normally. Do not run a cold engine at high speed,
instead, run it at an idle speed for a period of time not longer than 30 s. After that, check the oil pressure and
water temperature.
In a cold environment, start the engine with the starting aid. Activate the electronic heating flange by a relay
to ensure successful start at low temperature (such as -30°C).
2.5 Running
1. After the engine is started, run it at an idle speed for 3 min, and then accelerate it to (1,000~1,200) r/min.
9
Operation and Maintenance Manual of WP12/WP13 China IV/V and Euro V Four-valve Diesel Engine for Vehicles
Increase the engine load and speed gradually, and avoid abrupt loading or unloading as much as possible.
2. Within the running-in period of first 50h, it is recommended to run under medium load. The engine
should not be used for a long time at low speed. The whole machine is not designed to operate at low speed and
under low load conditions, otherwise it is prone to oil expelling.
3. It is allowed to run the engine continuously at rated power and speed during normal operation,; however,
when the engine is to be stopped after unloading, it is required to run it at idle speed for1~2 min.
4. The parameters of engine during normal operation are as shown in Tab. 2-1.
5. Check the exhaust color to identify the operation quality and load of the fuel injector. If the smoke color is
improper, stop the engine for inspection. Check the engine for water, gas and oil leakage, if any, stop it for
troubleshooting.
1) Fuel: select appropriate grade of diesel according to the outdoor temperature in winter.
2) Lubricating oil: select appropriate grade of lubricating oil according to different seasons.
3) Coolant: add anti-freeze into the cooling system, and determine the antifreeze grade and mixture ratio
5) The electrolyte level, viscosity and unit voltage of the battery must be checked before the cold season
coming. If the diesel engine is at a very low temperature and will not be used for a long time, the battery should
be removed and stored in a warmer room.
2.6 Stop
Before shutting down the diesel engine, unload it, reduce its speed gradually, and run it at an idle
speed for a few minutes. In case of f exceeding speed, the engine can be stopped by cutting off the
pipeline of the high-pressure fuel pump and blocking the air filter intake.
After engine shutdown, disconnect the electric key to prevent the battery current from flowing
back into the excitation coil of the silicon rectifier alternator to avoid battery discharge.
When the ambient temperature is lower than 0°C, if the engine will be out of service for a long time,
turn on the water release switch and drain all the coolant to prevent frost cracking. The coolant doesn’t

The urea solution for vehicle should be stored in an enclosed light-resistant container at the ambient
temperature of 5°C-25°C, with the shelf life shown in Tab. 3-6.
The materials of the urea solution storage containers should be properly compatible with urea solution for
vehicle, without chemical reactions or impurity migration. Containers made of recommended materials in
accordance with GB 29518 such as austenitic alloys and additive-free teflon, polyethylene and polypropylene
should be used. In case of storage below 5°C, a proper space should be reserved in the storage containers as the
volume of urea solution in the solidification state will be increased by 7% compared to that in the liquid state.
For the engine filled with urea solution, the effectiveness of urea solution should be noted. The relationship
between the shelf life of urea solution and the ambient temperature during the inventory period of engine is
shown in Tab. 3-6. If the inventory period exceeds the shelf life, it is required to drain away urea solution through
the drain valve at the bottom of the urea solution tank and fill the tank with acceptable urea solution before the
delivery of engine. When the ambient temperature is greater than 35°C, it is necessary to check if urea solution
in the urea solution tank is still up to standard before delivery of the vehicle, and if not, replace it with acceptable
urea solution.
CAUTION
1. Urea solution should be stored in the tightly closed container, which should be placed in the cool and
dry storage room, far away from strong oxidizers. If urea solution is poured directly into the urea solution
tank, it may splash, causing environmental pollution. It is recommended to use special filling equipment.
