1. PREPARATION FOR INITIAL START-UP
DIESEL FUEL
The generator is fed by diesel through the two fuel connections (fuel-in and fuel-return). Do not use kerosene or home
heating fuel.
Care of the Fuel Supply
Use only clean diesel fuel. The clearance of the components in your injection pump is very critical; invisible dirt particles
which might pass through the filter can damage these finely finished parts. It is important to buy clean fuel, and keep it clean.
The best fuel can become unsatisfactory by careless handling or improper storage facilities. To assure that the fuel going into
the tank for your engine’s daily use is clean and pure, purchase a well-known brand of fuel. Also install and regularly service a
good fuel / water separator filter between the fuel tank and the generator.
ENGINE OIL SPECIFICATION
Use a heavy duty engine oil; the engine manufacturer
prescribes SAE 15W 40. Change the engine oil after an
initial 50 hours of break-in operation, and every 100 hours
of operation thereafter. For recommended oil viscosity,
see the following chart:
Please refer to the engine manufacturer manual for any information.
CAUTION:
Do not allow two or more brands of engine oil to
mix. Each brand contains its own additives; additives
of different brands could react in the mixture to
produce properties harmful to your engine.
PRE-START INSPECTION
Before starting your engine for the first time, or after a prolonged layoff, check the following items:
Check the engine oil level. Add oil to maintain the level at the high mark on the dipstick.
Turn on the fuel supply, then check the fuel supply and examine the fuel filter / water separator bowl for contaminants.
NOTE: refer to the specifications for the proper diesel fuel and lubricating oil types and quantities.
Check the DC electrical system. Inspect wire connections and battery cable connections. Make certain the positive
(+) battery cable is connected to the starter solenoid and the negative (-) cable is connected to the engine ground
stud.
The shore power safety switch must be OFF.
The shore power transfer switch must be in the GENERATOR mode.
Open the raw water intake.
Visually examine the generator. Look for loose or missing parts, disconnected wires, and unattached hoses. Check
the threaded connections. Check for fuel leaks.
Make sure the exhaust system is secure and all the connections are tight.
Make sure there is a good ventilation and an ample air supply. These are necessary for proper engine performance.
Make sure the mounting installation is secure.
Check load leads for correct connections as specified in the wiring diagrams.
Be sure no other generators or utility power is connected to the load lines.
CAUTION
:
When starting the generator, it is recommended
that all AC loads, especially large motors, be
switched off until the engine has come up to speed
and, in cold climates, starts to warm up. This
precaution will prevent damage caused by
unanticipated operation of the AC machinery will
prevent a cold engine from stalling.
