1. INTRODUCTION
This generating set is one of a family of heavy duty industrial
generating sets designed to be ready to run when it arrives,
requiring only the addition of coolant, fuel and battery acid.
Years of diesel generating set experience has gone into the
set to produce a quality source of electrical power that is
efficient and reliable.
This Operator’s Manual has been prepared to assist in
operation of the generating set.
Always ensure that maintenance, adjustments and repairs are
done by personnel who are authorised to do the work and
have been properly trained.
Every generating set is uniquely defined by a model number
and serial number indicated on a rating plate generally affixed
to the alternator housing. This information is required when
ordering spare parts or when service or warranty work is
required.
2. SAFETY
2.1 General
The generating set is designed to be safe when used in
the correct manner. Responsibility for safety, however,
rests with the personnel who use the set. The following
safety precautions, if followed, will minimise the possibility
of accidents. Before performing any procedure or
operating technique, it is up to the user to ensure that it is
safe. The generating set should only be operated by
personnel who are authorised and trained.
WARNING:
!
Read and understand all safety precautions and
warnings before operating the generating set.
!
Failure to follow the instructions, procedures, and
safety precautions in this manual may increase the
possibility of accidents and injuries.
!
Never start the generating set unless it is safe to do
so.
!
Do not attempt to operate the generating set with a
known unsafe condition.
!
If the generating set is unsafe, fit danger notices and
disconnect the battery negative ( - ) lead so that it
cannot be started until the condition is corrected.
!
Disconnect the battery negative ( - ) lead prior to
attempting any repairs or cleaning inside the
enclosure, if equipped.
!
Install and operate this generating set only in full
compliance with relevant National, Local, or Federal
Codes, Standards or other requirements.
2.2 Installation, Handling and Towing
A qualified generating set technician should refer to the
Technical Manual for this information.
2.3 Fire and Explosion
Fuels and fumes associated with generating sets can be
flammable and potentially explosive. Proper care in
handling these materials can dramatically limit the risk of
fire or explosion. However, safety dictates that fully
charged BC and ABC fire extinguishers are kept on hand.
Personnel must know how to operate them
WARNING:
!
Ensure the generating set room is properly
ventilated.
!
Keep the room, the floor and the generating set
clean. When spills of fuel, oil, battery electrolyte or
coolant occur, they should be cleaned up
immediately.
!
Never store flammable liquids near the engine.
!
Store oily rags in covered metal containers.
!
Do not smoke or allow sparks, flames or other
sources of ignition around fuel or batteries. Fuel
vapours are
explosive. Hydrogen gas generated by charging batteries
is also explosive.
!
Avoid refilling the fuel tank while the engine is
running.
!
Do not attempt to operate the generating set with
any known leaks in the fuel system.
2.4 Mechanical
The generating set is designed with guards for protection
from moving parts. Care must still be taken to protect
personnel and equipment from other mechanical hazards
when working around the generating set.
WARNING:
!
Do not attempt to operate the generating set with
safety guards removed. While the generating set is
running do not attempt to reach under or around the
guards for any reason.
!
Keep hands, arms, long hair, loose clothing and
jewellery away from pulleys, belts and other moving
parts.
Attention: Some moving parts can not be seen
clearly when the set is running.
!
Keep access doors on enclosures, if equipped,
closed and locked when not required to be open.
!
Avoid contact with hot oil, hot coolant, hot exhaust
gases, hot surfaces and sharp edges and corners.
!
Wear protective clothing including gloves and hat
when working around the generating set.
2.5 Chemical
Fuels, oils, coolants, lubricants and battery electrolyte
used in this generating set are typical of the industry.
However, they can be hazardous to personnel if not
treated properly.
WARNING:
!
Do not swallow or have skin contact with fuel, oil,
coolant, lubricants or battery electrolyte. If
swallowed, seek medical treatment immediately. Do
not induce vomiting if fuel is swallowed. For skin
contact, wash with soap and water.
!
Do not wear clothing that has been contaminated by
fuel or lube oil.
2.6 Noise
Generating sets that are not equipped with sound
attenuating enclosures can produce noise levels in excess
of 105 dBA. Prolonged exposure to noise levels above 85
dBA is hazardous to hearing.
WARNING:
!
Ear protection must be worn when operating or
working around an operating generating set.
2.7 Electrical
Safe and efficient operation of electrical equipment can be
achieved only if the equipment is correctly operated and
maintained.
WARNING:
!
Ensure the generating set, including a mobile set, is
effectively grounded/earthed prior to operation.
!
Do not touch electrically energised parts of the
generating set and/or interconnecting cables or
conductors with any part of the body or with any non
insulated conductive object.
!
Use only Class BC or Class ABC extinguishers on
electrical fires.
