Presentation
This instruction manual is for the Nanni Diesel genera-
tor set QMF6M.
This set is based on a 2 cylinders Diesel engine. Refer
to the “Technical specifi cations” section for the specifi -
cations of your generating set.
Identification numbers
The generator set has 2 identifi cation plates: one for the
generator set in its whole and one for the engine.
Keep these plates accessible and in good condition.
Record and keep the engine and generator serial
number, designation and code. These numbers will be
useful when working on the generator set, for ordering
parts or warranty claim.
The plate shown below is on the generator. It contains
all the information identifying the generator in accord-
ance with ISO 8528 Standard and CE mark.
Checks before commissioning
I Caution! : The generator set must be installed by a
shipyard or authorized representative following the on-
board assembly instructions.
The electrical connections must also be carried out by
qualifi ed personnel. The electrical installation must be
equipped with all the mechanisms for protecting people
and property in accordance with the applicable stand-
ards.
Preparations before starting
When the set has been installed on board and before
removing the protective elements covering the different
orifi ces, clean the exterior surface of the generator set.
For transportation reasons, some of our generator sets
are delivered without their operating fl uids. In all cases,
you must:
• Check the levels and fi ll the engine oil if necessary.
• Prime the seawater system.
• Fill the cooling system with coolant and vent if nec-
essary.
• Check the tightness of the different connections
and drain caps (coolant and oil).
• Check the tightness of the alternator electrical lugs
(check the cabling by referring to the corresponding
documentation), battery terminals, circuit breaker,
connection of extension sections, battery electro-
lyte level.
• Make a fi nal check of the fi xing elements and a vis-
ual check of the generator set as a whole.
Some of these operations are explained in more detail
later in this manual.

Caution! : The modern fuel engine is precision
equipment that requires the use of a high-quality fuel
