1. Periodic Maintenance
In order to ensure a properly running unit, periodic maintenance and inspections are necessary. In
addition to the pre-operational instructions given in Chapter 1 the unit must be maintained on a regular
basis and any malfunctions or problems with the unit must be fixed at once. Prolonging repairs on
machinery that is running improperly may create an unsafe situation and will increase mechanical
problems.
When working on any system in the unit, extreme caution must be used to avoid personal injury or
death.
WARNING:
KEEP HANDS AND LOOSE CLOTHING AWAY FROM ROTATING MACHINERY AND BELTS.
WARNING:
ELECTRIC SHOCK MAY RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. ALWAYS SHUT THE
UNIT OFF AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.
NOTE:
Wet-stacking
Wet-stacking is common and may be expected in diesel engines operated under light load.
Light loads do not allow the engine to reach the most efficient operating temperature for
complete combustion of fuel. The unburned fuel collects in the exhaust system to create the
condition known as wet-stacking. Wet-stacking is recognizable by fuel oil wetness around
the exhaust manifold, pipes, and muffler.
To alleviate wet-stacking in lightly loaded engines, it is recommended that the machine be
connected to a load bank after 200 hours of use and operated under full rated load for one
hour. This will burn away and evaporate the accumulation of fuel in the exhaust system.
This clean-out procedure should be considered as periodic maintenance for machines
operated under light load.
CAUTION:
IF WELDING OR GRINDING ON THE GALVANIZED BASE, SAFETY GLASSES AND A DUST
FILTRATION MASK MUST BE WORN TO PREVENT EXPOSURE TO FUMES AND DUST.
