CAUTION
Monitor ITT/TGT to avoid a hot start. If
there is a rapid rise in ITT/TGT, be prepared
to
abort
the
start
before
limits
are
exceeded.
During
engine
start,
the
maximum allowable ITT/TGT is 1000 °C for
5 seconds. If this limit is exceeded,
discontinue start and use Abort Start
procedure, Paragraph 8A-24. Record the
peak temperature and duration on DA
Form 2408-13-1.
c. ITT/TGT and N1 Monitor ITT/TGT
1000 °C maximum. N1 minimum 56%.
d. Oil pressure Check (60 psi minimum).
e. IGNITION AND ENGINE START switch
OFF after 50% N1.
8. Engine and systems instruments Check.
9. CONDITION lever HIGH IDLE. Monitor
ITT/TGT as the condition lever is advanced.
10. GPU disconnect As required.
CAUTION
Do not turn on generators with GPU
connected.
11. GEN switch RESET then ON.
12. BATTERY CHARGE light Monitor.
NOTE
After starting the first engine with a GPU,
the second engine is normally started
using a battery start. If a GPU start is
required or desired for the second engine
start, use the Second Engine Start (GPU
Start)
procedure,
Paragraph
8A-27;
otherwise, use the Second Engine Start
(Battery Start) procedure, Paragraph 8A-23.
