Operation Manual - ITW GSE 6400 Tier 3
c) Factory Installed Components and Protective Systems
This generator set is assembled with the following components and protective systems:
1) Shutdown/Reset Systems
•
Emergency Shutdown
The emergency shutdown switch is to provide instant manual shut off
of the generator
set by disconnecting power to the ECM through the control box. It is located on the
FRONT RIGHT of the generator set next to the control box.
To operate the
EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN
•
Push button in until engine stops or until button travel stops
•
Pull the button back out to reset
CAUTION
Do not use the “
EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON
” as a normal shutdown device.
Damage to the engine turbo charger may result without proper cooling time. Use the
Engine ON/OFF push-button for all normal engine shutdowns.
•
Low Fuel Warning System
The low fuel warning system monitors the fuel level in the fuel tank. When the fuel
tank level reaches approximately 10%, a warning is generated signifying it is time to
put fuel in the tank. Once the engine is not running, a low fuel fault is generated and
the engine is not allowed to start.
2) Radiator and Charge-Air-Cooler (CAC)
The radiator and charge-air-cooler is a two-piece type designed for long periods of operation
without servicing.
3) Engine-Cooling Fan
The engine fan is designed to blow air outward through the radiator, rather than pulling air
inward like a conventional fan.
4) Master [Battery] Disconnect Switch
The master disconnect switch is designed to isolate the batteries from the entire electrical
system to eliminate the possibility of battery current draw by the engine ECM or any other
components during long periods of no operation. The switch can also be used to lock-out the
starting circuit of the equipment for maintenance safety purposes.
5) Air Cleaner
The diesel engine air cleaner is constructed so that air enters through its cylindrical body, and
then is filtered before being passed into the engine turbo-charger assembly. An air cleaner
service indicator device is mounted on the air cleaner assembly to monitor the airflow into the
air cleaner. As the air cleaner becomes filled with dust, dirt, and carbon, the intake system
airflow becomes increasingly restricted. This restriction causes a diaphragm inside the
indicator to move toward an electrical contact. When the maximum allowable restriction level
is reached, the circuit closes and the air cleaner indicator fault appears on the control panel
fault display to warn the operator that the air cleaner must be changed. The electrical
indicator automatically resets when the restriction level drops sufficiently. Note: This function
should not be used as a replacement indicator. Follow recommended replacement schedule
as specified in this manual.
