Section 4 - Operation
4.1. Prestart Checklist
Follow these checks and inspections to ensure the correct genset operation. In addition,
some checks require verification after unit starts.
AIR CLEANER: Check for a clean and installed air cleaner element to prevent unfiltered air
from entering the genset.
AIR INLETS : Check for clean and unobstructed air inlets.
BATTERY: Check for tight battery connections .
COOLANT LEVEL: Check the coolant level according to coolant circuit capacity .
DRIVE BELTS: Check the belt condition and tension of the coolant pump and battery
charging alternator belt .
EXHAUST SYSTEM: Check for exhaust leaks and blockages. Check the silencer and piping
condition and check for tight exhaust system connections .
Check that the exhaust outlet is unobstructed.
FUEL LEVEL: Check the fuel level and keep the tank(s) full to ensure adequate fuel supply.
OIL LEVEL: Maintain the oil level below dipstick high mark and above dipstick low mark .
OPERATING AREA: Check for obstructions that could block the flow of admission air.
SEAWATER PUMP PRIMING: Prime the seawater pump before initial startup. To prime the
pump:
-
Close the seacock.
-
Remove the hose from the seawater-filter outlet.
-
Fill the hose and seawater pump with clean water.
-
Reconnect the hose to the water filter outlet.
-
Open the seacock.
Confirm seawater pump operation on startup as indicated by water discharge from the
exhaust outlet.
4.2. Genset Operation at Low Temperatures
Whenever the atmospheric temperature drops below zero, the following series of
circumstances occur:

The cooling liquids may freeze.

The oil becomes thicker.

There is a drop in the voltage at the battery terminals.

The inlet air temperature is low and the genset has difficulty in starting.

The fuel loses fluidity.
To prevent the damage caused by low temperature operation, the genset should be
prepared:
1. Use special low temperature coolant or suitable anti-freezing agent concentration.
2. Close the seawater cock, when the genset is stopped. Open the seawater filter cover
and start the genset adding a mixture of freshwater and suitable anti-freezing agent
concentration (see package labels) until the seawater circuit is filled completely. Stop
