OPERATION OF DIESEL GENERATING SET
long term storage process or after changing the fuel filter.
Checking and operating the engine
Checking lube oil level
Check lube oil level prior to each starting. If the engine works under
lack of lube oil, oil temperature will rise quickly and the engine will
be clipped. If the engine works under enough lube oil, it is very easy
to make lube oil burn, resulting in speed increasingly to damage the
engine. Hence, it is very important to ensure that oil level is between
upper limit and lower limit in oil dipstick. Not need to tight the oil
dipstick to check the oil level. Must be check without screw the
dipstick
Operation in trial
For new engine, it is necessary to have 30 hour running-in operation
initially
A Avoiding over-load During the trial operation, should prevent over-load in order not to damage the engine
B Changing lube oil at fixed period Change it after initial 30 hours operation. Refer to operation
manual paragraph 4.1.1
