(2) First check the height of the lubricating oil
level, if it is low, refill it. Our diesel engines are
equipped with an alarm system that will notify
you if the oil pressure is too low. The alarm
system will shut down the engine if the oil
pressure is too low.Warning:Don’t check and
fill engine oil when diesel is operating

(3) Do not adjust the speed limit regulation bolt or
the fuel adjustment bolt. These bolts have
been set by the factory already, changing
them will affect the properties of the engine
performance.

2-5.2 Checks during engine operation
(1) Check to see if there are abnormal noises.
(2) Check to see if the performance is good or
bad.
(3) Check the color of the exhaust gases (whether
it is too black or too white). If any of these
conditions exist, stop the engine and find the
cause of the problem. If no problems are
found, please contact your local dealer or our
nearest company branch.
2-6 Loading
2-6.1 Load conditions
Exert loads in accordance with the specified
parameters.
2-6.2 Output of electricity
(1) When connecting devices to the generator,
make sure to connect these devices in order.
Connect the large loads onto the generator
first. If everything is functional, smaller loads
can then be added. If the generator shuts off,
it may be because the load being drawn by all
the various devices are too high. In this
event, decrease the number of small devices
until everything is functional. The total drawn
power should not exceed the maximum output
power of the generator. Please see Table
2-1 for technical specifications of what the
generator can output. In order to reset the
generator after overdrawn power, let it sit for
several minutes.

(2) During operation, the generator should be in a
place that has very good ventilation. Never
cover the engine to solve a ventilation problem,
as this will damage your equipment.

Note: Do not start more than two devices
simultaneously. Each device should be started
ona by one to prevent overloading the generator.
The generator should be running at 3600
revolutions per minure in order to achieve the
(60Hz) frequency. The speed of the engine can
be adjusted from the speed governor.
