If the engine is not to be used for extensive periods, check the storage area condi-
tions and the type of packaging and make sure that these are suitable for correct
storage.
If necessary, cover the engine with a proper protective sheet.
-
Avoid storing the engine in direct contact with the ground, in environments that are
humid and exposed to bad weather, near high voltage electric lines, etc.
If, after the first 6 months, the engine is still not used, it is necessary to
carry out a further measure to extend the protection period (see "Protective
treatment").
PROTECTIVE TREATMENT
1 -
Pour in the engine housing AGIP RUSTIA C protective oil up to the maximum level.
2 -
Fill up with fuel containing 10% AGIP RUSTIA NT.
3 -
Make sure that the coolant is up to the maximum level.
4 -
Start the engine and keep it idle at minimum speed for some minutes.
5 -
Bring the engine to ¾ of the maximum speed for 5÷10 minutes.
6 -
Turn off the engine.
7 -
Empty out completely the fuel tank.
8 -
Spray SAE 10W on the exhaust and intake manifolds.
9 -
Seal the exhaust and intake ducts to prevent foreign bodies from entering.
10 -
Thoroughly clean all external parts of the engine using suitable products.
11 -
Treat non-painted parts with protective products (AGIP RUSTIA NT).
12 -
Loosen the alternator/fan belt.
13 -
Cover the engine with a proper protective sheet.
In countries in which AGIP products are not available, find an equivalent
product (with specifications: MIL-L-21260C).
Maximum every 24 months of inactivity, the engine must be started up by
repeating all "Engine Storage" operations.

ENGINE STORAGE
PREPARING THE ENGINE FOR OPERATION AFTER PROTECTIVE TREATMENT
After the storage period and before starting up the engine and preparing it for operation,
you need to perform certain operations to ensure maximal efficiency conditions.
1 -
Remove the protective sheet.
2 -
Remove any sealing devices from the exhaust and intake ducts.
3 -
Use a cloth soaked in degreasing product to remove the protective treatment from
the external parts.
5 -
Inject lubricating oil (no more than 2 cm3) into the intake ducts.
6 -
Adjust the alternator/fan belt tension.
7 -
Turn the engine manually to check the correct movement and smoothness of the
mechanical parts.
8 -
Refill the tank with fresh fuel.
9 -
Make sure that the oil and the coolant are up to the maximum level.
10 -
Start the engine and after some minutes bring it to ¾ of the maximum speed for
5-10 minutes.
11 -
Turn off the engine.
12 -
Remove the oil drain plug (see "Oil replacement") and discharge the AGIP RUSTIA
NT protective oil while the engine is hot.
13 -
Pour new oil (see "Table of lubricants") up to the maximum level.
14 -
Replace the filters (air, oil, fuel) with original spare parts.
15 -
Empty the cooling circuit completely and pour in the new coolant up to the maxi-
mum level.
Over time, a number of engine components and lubricants lose their pro-
perties, so it is important considering whether they need replacing, also
based on age (see Replacement table).
Maximum every 24 months of inactivity, the engine must be started up by
repeating all "Engine Storage" operations.
