Many people now know that it's necessary to warm up a loader before using it, for about a few minutes. But what is the purpose of doing this? Have you ever wondered?
1. It allows all parts of the machine to warm up slowly and evenly, reaching the normal operating temperature, reducing wear and tear, and preventing mechanical damage;
2. When starting, the lubricating oil has high viscosity, resulting in poor lubrication of various components. Warming up allows the lubricating oil to gradually reach all lubrication points, preventing dry friction and damage to the mating surfaces;
3. When the machine temperature is low, the diesel fuel does not burn completely. If the throttle is increased and the fuel supply is increased at this time, the excess unburned diesel fuel will form carbon deposits, exacerbating diesel engine emissions.
In addition, a friendly reminder: for loaders equipped with exhaust gas turbochargers, warming up the engine is even more important. Otherwise, it can easily cause the turbocharger to seize, which would be quite troublesome. Therefore, it's essential to take a few minutes to warm up the engine.
