Generators
This article provides information for maintenance, operation, and safety for gas and diesel generators.
WARNING
!
It is critical that the AGS system be turned off
any time the generator is going to be serviced.
Failure to deactivate the AGS system may result in
damage, injury, or death if the Genset should start
unexpectedly. Also, if the AGS system is set and
the generator is turned off at any switch, it will
clear the AGS settings.
Generator and GenStart/Stop Switch Overview for
Diesel Coaches
This article provides basic operation instructions for a
generator and GenStart/GenStop switch on a diesel coach.
The generator is wired into the Automatic Transfer Switch
and will power all of the 120 volt circuits in your coach. Your
generator may be located in a side compartment or in the
front of the coach in between the frame rails of the chassis.
Some generators are mounted on slides for easy access
and may need to be unlocked before free movement is
allowed. The main breakers for the output legs are located
on the generator start panel.
Operation
The generator can be started from the
rocker switch on the dash, from other
remote start switches (if equipped), from the
start switch on the generator itself, or from
the SilverLeaf touchscreen (if equipped).
The generator in your coach runs on the
same diesel fuel as your main engine. The
diesel fuel is drawn through a separate
supply tube that is positioned in the tank in
a manner that will not allow the generator
to draw fuel and run if the tank level dips
below the ¼ level.
Depending on the ambient temperatures, the generator
may pre-heat prior to cranking. This pre-heat condition is
noted by flashing the light on the generator start switch
until the cycle is complete (up to 15 seconds). Once it has
pre-heated sufficiently, the starter will engage and the
engine will start.
KIB 12 Volt Fuse Panel
The Newmar KIB fuse panel is also located in the left front
baggage compartment under the driver’s seat. This panel
contains fuses that power the dome light, front visor, and
the solar panels (late 2015 model year), as well as for the
entrance step, back-up monitors, navigation, cargo lights,
and keyless entry. The ignition lock-out for the slideouts
and shades is also located on this fuse panel.
Example of a KIB Fuse Panel
BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR:
1. Turn off the air conditioners and any other large
electrical loads, as recommended by the generator
manufacturer.
2. If the generator previously ran out of fuel, add fuel to
the tank.
3. Prime the generator by holding the generator switch
in the stop position.
TO START THE GENERATOR:
1. Press and hold the generator start switch in the “Start/
Preheat” position. It will automatically delay and pre-
heat.
2. The indicator light will flash rapidly while pre-heating,
and the generator will crank and start.
3. When the generator starts, release the switch.
4. The indicator light will stay illuminated while the
generator is running.
TO STOP THE GENERATOR:
1. Press the generator switch in the “Stop” position.
2. Release the switch.
3. The indicator light will turn off when the generator
stops.
Service Required Indicator:
1. The generator switch indicator light may flash in a
series of three quick flashes, followed by a short
pause, and then quickly flash three more times. These
flashes indicate that service is required.
2. Refer to the owner’s manual for your specific
generator for more in-depth descriptions of flashing
codes.
Excessive cranking can damage the starter motor.
Do not crank the generator more than 30 seconds at
a time, and allow at least two minutes before trying
again if the first attempt fails.
