Changing Frequency and Adjusting Voltage

CHANGING FREQUENCY

Model MGKBC gensets may be configured to oper-
ate at 60 Hz or 50 Hz. To change the operating fre-
quency, remove the front access door and find wir-
ing harness connectors 

P5

P6

 and 

P7

 (Page  21),

which are located just behind the ignition coil. Con-
nect

 P5 

to 

P6 

for 

60 HZ

 or 

P5 

to 

P7

 for 

50 HZ

.

Note 1: When changing genset operating frequency,
make sure the line circuit breakers are suitable for
the new output. Replace them if necessary with ones
of appropriate rating.

Note 2: Check and adjust voltage as necessary after
frequency has been changed.

ADJUSTING VOLTAGE

WARNING

HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE! Touching

uninsulated live parts inside the genset or con-
nected equipment can result in severe personal
injury or death. For your protection, stand on a
dry wooden platform or rubber insulating mat,
make sure your clothing and shoes are dry, re-
move jewelry from your hands and use tools
with insulated handles.

Before adjusting voltage, make sure that proper
fuel, exhaust, raw water and battery connections
have been made and that the engine has the proper
levels of oil and coolant. See the Operator’s Manu-
al. Complete 

Installation Checks and Startup

(Page 20) as far as possible. Disconnect all genera-
tor loads and connect accurate meters to measure
AC voltage and frequency.

Using Start Switch

1. Start the genset and let voltage and frequency

stabilize for 5 to 10 seconds.

2. Rapidly press 

START 

6 times 

during the first

minute after startup 

to put the genset controller

into 

voltage adjust mode

. The amber status

light will begin blinking about once every sec-
ond to indicate the change to voltage adjust
mode. The green status light will remain on.

3.

To adjust voltage up

, press and quickly re-

lease 

START

. Voltage will increase approxi-

mately 0.6 volts each press and release.

4.

To adjust voltage down

, press and hold

START 

for about 1 second. Voltage will de-

crease approximately 0.6 volts each press and
release.

5. When satisfied with the adjustment, wait about

20 seconds for the amber light to stop blinking
and then press 

STOP

 to save the adjustment.

6. Restart the genset and check voltage.

Using e-Series Digital Display

See the Operator’s Manual for details regarding the

e-Series Digital Display

.

1. Start the genset and let voltage and frequency

stabilize for 5 to 10 seconds.

2. Rapidly press 

START 

6 times 

during the first

minute after startup 

to put the genset controller

into 

voltage adjust mode

. The green status light

will begin blinking about once every second
and the Display will indicate a Status change
from 

Running 

to 

Volt Adj 

(Figure 7).

3.

To adjust voltage up

, press and quickly re-

lease 

START

. Voltage will increase approxi-

mately 0.6 volts each press and release.

4.

To adjust voltage down

, press and hold

START 

for about 1 second. Voltage will de-

crease approximately 0.6 volts each press and
release.

5. When satisfied with the adjustment, wait about

20 seconds for the Display to indicate a Status
change from 

Volt Adj

 to 

Running

 and then

press 

STOP

 to save the adjustment.

6. Restart the genset and check voltage.
