TROUBLE SHOOTING
down. The nuts of the fail safes are diagonal to each
other. When the 6 nuts in total are removed the
generating set can be lifted out the canopy.
3
The easiest way to get the generator out of its cap-
sule is by lifting the set with aid of the lifting eyes and
take away the capsule downwards.
4
The cooler elements are welded to the alternator hou-
sing with silver and cannot be disassembled. How-
ever one can take off the complete alternator hou-
sing.
5
Before the alternator can be taken off one has to take
out the fitting to the heatexchanger to be able to take
off the metal cover. All cables and wiring has to be
taken loose first.
6
The rotor can be taken off by removing the bold which
goes through the shaft (normal clockwise threaded).
The end of the shaft is specially threaded to push off
the rotor from the conic stub shaft, which is on the
flywheel, using a 10-mm rod of 270 mm length and a
M24x2 bolt.
7
Reassembling the generating set one should take
care for alignment cleaning the surfaces between en-
gine and alternator and tighten the bolds crosswise
and gradually.
8
Use Loctite 577 to seal the fittings, which should first
be cleaned and made free of oil and grease.
9
Test the generating set first outside its capsule and
check very carefully for leakages before putting it
back in its enclosure.
