Change 3 8-19
NOTE
The engines must not be started until after the
INS is placed into the NAV mode or OFF as
required.
2. Exterior light switches As required.
3. Deleted.
4. Propeller area Clear.
5. ENG START switch START-IGNITION IGN
ON annunciator should illuminate and FUEL
PRESS annunciator should extinguish.
NOTE
False fuel flow indication may be observed with
the starter engaged and the CONDITION lever
in FUEL CUTOFF.
CAUTION
If ignition does not occur within 10 seconds after
moving CONDITION lever to LOW IDLE, initiate
Abort Start procedure. If for any reason a starting
attempt is discontinued, the entire starting se-
quence must be repeated after allowing the en-
gine to come to a complete stop (1 minute
minimum).
6. CONDITION lever (after N1, RPM passes 13%
minimum) - LOW IDLE.
CAUTION
Monitor TGT to avoid a hot start. If there is a rapid
rise in TGT, be prepared to abort the start before
limits are exceeded. During engine start, the
maximum allowable TGT is 1000° C for 5 sec-
onds. If this limit is exceeded, initiate Abort Start
procedure and discontinue start. Enter the peak
temperature and duration on DA Form 2408-13.
7. TGT and N1 Monitor (TGT 1000° C maxi-
mum).
8. Oil pressure Check (60 PSI minimum).
9. ENG START switch Off after TGT peaks.
10. Deleted.
11. DC GPU disconnect As required. If second
engine is to be started using the operating en-
gines generator, use the Battery Start Proce-
dure (Second Engine).
12. Generator switch RESET then ON, for sec-
ond engine battery start.
8-19. *SECOND ENGINE START (GPU START).
1. Propeller area Clear.
2. ENG START switch START-IGNITION. IGN
ON annunciator should illuminate and FUEL
PRESS annunciator should extinguish.
3. CONDITION lever (after N1 RPM passes 13%
minimum) LOW IDLE.
4. TGT and N1 Monitor (TGT 1000° C maxi-
mum).
5. Oil pressure Check (60 PSI minimum).
6. ENG START switch OFF after TGT peaks.
7. AC and DC GPU units Disconnect (check
aircraft external power and mission external
power annunciators extinguished).
8. CONDITION levers HIGH IDLE.
9. PROP levers HIGH RPM.
10. #1 and #2 INVERTER switches ON. Check
INVERTER annunciators extinguished.
11. GENERATOR switch (1) Reset, then ON.
12. Current limiters Check as follows:
a. BATTERY CHARGE annunciator
Check on. BATTERY CHARGE annuncia-
tor should extinguish within 5 minutes fol-
lowing a normal engine start.
b. #1 and #2 INV annunciators Check ex-
tinguished. This procedure checks both
400 and 500 ampere current limiters that
tie aircraft bus system together.
c. Check for Generator voltage on BATT
VOLT/AMP meter.
13. GENERATOR switch Second switch reset,
then on.
NOTE
To reset beacon light, turn OFF approximately 5
seconds, then ON. When voltage drops below
approximately 20 volts, the beacon light may
become inoperative.
14. BEACON lights switch Reset, then on.
