Before approaching the genera-
tor disconnect one of the poles of the starter battery
so it cannot be accidentally started up.
5.1 Routine maintenance of the engine
The regular maintenence that must be carried out on the
engine are shown on the table.
For more detailed information, consult the manual sup-
plied by the engine manufacturer that accompanies each
generator .
Use the dipstick to check the oil
level [fig. 4, ref. 1]. The level must always be
between the MAX. and MIN notches on the dipstick
[fig. 4, ref. 2] .
5.2 Changing engine oil and oil filter
The engine sump has the following capacity:
IS13.5 - 5.5qt.
IS18.5 - 6.1qt.
IS23 - 10.8qt.
Oil must be poured in and topped off through the hole [fig.
7, ref. 1 - 2].
To change the oil the engine sump, remove the dipstick
[fig. 4, ref. 2], remove the screw that serves as a cap and
use the extraction pump [fig. 7, ref. 3].
Drain the oil while it is still warm enough to allow it to drain
off easily.
See Table “A”, fig. 4 for information on recommended oils.
The engine oil must be changed
for the first time after 50 hours of generator opera-
tion; the second and subsequent oil changes can
take place every 200 hours.
For more detailed information on
engine lubrication consult the engine use and main-
tenance manual that accompanies the generator.
Do not dump used oil as it is a
polluting product. Deliver the lubricating oil to the
collection centers that are responsible for the disposal
of oil.
Do not allow the engine oil to
come into contact with the skin. During mainte-
nance operations use protective gloves and goggles.
If the lubricating oil comes into contact with the eyes
or skin, wash the affected part immediately and
thoroughly with soap and water.
To replace the engine oil filter [fig. 7, ref. 4], unscrew it
from its support. Refit the new filter and make sure to
lubricate the ring seal. The first filter must be changed
after 50 hours of generator operation and the second and
subsequent ones must be changed every 400 hours.
For further information, see the engine use and mainte-
nance manual.
To ensure engine maintenance
use only manufacturer approved spare parts.
When maintenance has been
completed, thoroughly clean all the parts of the
generator that are covered in oil and fuel.
5.3 Cleaning the air filter
The IS series generators have a dry air filter that stops
debris from entering the combustion chamber. Clean the
filter with diesel fuel once a year to free it of impurities.
Do not dump the liquids used for
washing the air filter but take them to an approved
collection center.
5.4 Replacing the fuel filter
In order to ensure the engine has a long working life, the
fuel filter must be replaced regularly at the intervals
indicated by the engine manufacturer on the table set out
in paragraph 5.13.
To change the fuel filter, follow this procedure:
- close the fuel valve [fig. 6, ref. 3].
- loosen the supporting ringnut completely [fig. 6, ref. 4]
- remove the old cartridge and fit the new one
- to fit again repeat the operations in the reverse order.
After the filter has been replaced, the supply system must
be bled to remove all the air bubbles that have formed
inside (see paragraph 3.2).
Do not allow the fuel to come into
contact with the skin. During maintenance opera-
tions use protective gloves and goggles.
If the lubricating oil comes into contact with the eyes
or skin, wash the affected part immediately with
soap and water.
After the fuel is drained, carefully
clean off all traces of fuel and take the rags to the
appropriate collection center.
