8. Pre-Operation Inspection
WARNING : INJURY
Always be sure to stop the engine and remove the engine key when
performing inspection or maintenance.
Do not open the check door during operation. Be careful of pinching or
catching of moving parts such as the cooling fan and fan belt.
CAUTION : BURNS
Do not touch the engine and surrounding components immediately after
stopping the engine as they are still hot.
CAUTION : FIRE
Always be sure to wipe up any spilled fuel or oil.
8-1. Checking Engine Oil
To check the engine oil, keep the equipment level, remove the oil level indicator and wipe the
end of it so that no oil remains, and then re-insert the dipstick fully. Prior to starting the engine,
make sure to fill the engine oil through the oil filler so that it reaches the MAX line.
< NOTE >
Wait approximately five
minutes or more after
stopping the engine or
adding oil before checking
the oil level again.
An accurate oil level
reading cannot be obtained
if the generator is not level.
Do not overfill with oil.
Doing so will damage the
engine.
(1) Types of Engine Oil
Use only API service-type CF class or better.
(2) Engine Oil Viscosity
Use a diesel engine oil with an appropriate viscosity corresponding to the ambient
temperature (refer to the table).
