2-2.3 Checking the air filter
(1) Loosen the butterfly nut, take the cover of the
air filter off and take the air filter element out.
Do not use detergent to wash the air filter element.
When the performance of the engine decreases
or when the color of the exhaust gases is bad,
exchange the filter element. Never start the
engine without the air filter as foreign objects may
enter the intake and damage the engine.
(2) After replacing the air filter element, replace
the cover and tighten the butterfly nut firmly.
2-2.4 Checking the generator
(Note: Only certain generator sets have an
electric fan incorporated on them.)
Before starting the generator, make sure the
breaker is in the “Off” position. Starting the
generator with the breaker in the “On” position is
very dangerous.
The generator should be grounded in order to
prevent electric shock.
Use dry compressed air (with pressure about 1.96
x 105 Pa) to blow the dust out in the electric
control cabinet and at the surface of the generator.
Check to see how clean the surface of the sliding
ring is. Also, check to see whether the
connecting wire is correct and the connected
place is firm.
2-2.5 The fuel and oil in a new engine is drained
before sold
Before you start the engine, please fill the fuel
tank and engine oil first. Then, check to see if
there are air bubbles in the engine. If there are,
follow these procedures. Loosen the connecting
nut between the oil injection pump and oil pipe.
Bleed the air from the system until there are no
more bubbles. Then replace the connecting nut
and tighten it.
