6.1
General maintenance instructions
6.1.1 Checks before starting
• Oil level
• Cooling system leaks
• Visual check for any changes, leaks oil drain system, v-belt, cable connections, hose clips, air
filter, fuel lines
Once a month
• Lubrication of actuator-trapezoid thread spindle
For Maintenance Intervalls see section 8.4, “Inspection checklist for services,” on
Page 120.
6.1.2 Hose elements and rubber formed component in the sound cover
Check all hoses and hose connections for good condition. The rubber hoses are very sensitive to
enviromental influences. They can season fast with dry air, in which environment of muted oil and
fuel steams and increased temperature. The hoses must be checked regularly for elasticity.
There are operating situations, at which the hoses must be renewed once in the year.
Additionally to usual tasks of maintenance (oil level check, oil filter control etc.) further mainte-
nance activities are to be accomplished for marine gensets. It belongs control of the sacrificial
anode (cooling water connection block) and the front seal cover at the generator.
