General Preventative Practices Read the operator’s manual Read the operator’s manual Know the history of the equipment Know the history of the equipment Follow all manufacturer recommendations Follow all manufacturer recommendations Use quality materials Use quality materials Keep accurate records Keep accurate records Use common sense Use common sense Use safety practices Use safety practices

7. Power The rate of performing work The rate of performing work Engine power is stated as horsepower Engine power is stated as horsepower

8. Types of Power Engine horsepower – rates engines based on their displacement and configuration Engine horsepower – rates engines based on their displacement and configuration Horsepower – the force needed to life 33, 000 lbs one foot in one minute or 550 lbs one foot in one secondHorsepower – the force needed to life 33, 000 lbs one foot in one minute or 550 lbs one foot in one second Drawbar power – is derived as machines are pushed or pulled by the engine as power is delivered to the drive wheels Drawbar power – is derived as machines are pushed or pulled by the engine as power is delivered to the drive wheels

9. Horsepower

10. Types of Power PTO power – rotary power converted to hydraulic or electrical energy. PTO power – rotary power converted to hydraulic or electrical energy. Power-take-off (PTO) shaft transfers power from the engine to the attached implement.Power-take-off (PTO) shaft transfers power from the engine to the attached implement.

15. Diesel engine An engine with a very high compression ration in which the air- fuel mixture is ignited by the heat of compression An engine with a very high compression ration in which the air- fuel mixture is ignited by the heat of compression Available in two-stroke or four-stroke engines Available in two-stroke or four-stroke engines

16. Diesel engines have: Fuel injectors – measure the correct amount of fuel for injection at he correct time Fuel injectors – measure the correct amount of fuel for injection at he correct time Turbocharger – a turbine-type air pump that is driven by the engine’s exhaust gasses Turbocharger – a turbine-type air pump that is driven by the engine’s exhaust gasses

17. Comparison between spark ignition & diesel cycle engines Spark ignition (Otto Cycle Engine Compression Ignition (Diesel Cycle) Engines Lighter weight components Lighter weight components Lower compression rations Lower compression rations Easier starting Easier starting Lower fuel efficiency Lower fuel efficiency Quicker speed acceleration Quicker speed acceleration Higher engine speeds Higher engine speeds Lower engine torque Lower engine torque Heavier weight components Heavier weight components Higher compression ratios Higher compression ratios More difficult starting More difficult starting Higher fuel efficiency Higher fuel efficiency Slower speed acceleration Slower speed acceleration Slower engine speeds Slower engine speeds Higher engine torque Higher engine torque
