4. BREAK-IN PROCEDURE/ DAILY PROCEDURE
After the generator has been started, check for proper operation and then encourage a fast warm-up. Run the generator
between 20% to 60% of full load for the first 10 hours.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to break-in your generator by
running without a load.
After the first 10 hours of the generator's operation, the load can be increased to the full-load rated output; then periodically
vary the load.
Avoid overload at all times. An overload is signaled by the red LIGHT lighting located on the remote control panel, by a smoky
exhaust with reduced output voltage and frequency. Monitor the current being drawn from the generator and keep it within
the generator's rating.
To protect against unintentional overloading of the generator, the generator's output leads should be routed through a
circuit breaker that is rated at the rated output of the generator.
Note: be aware of motor starting loads and the high current drawn required for starting motors. This starting amperage
drawn is 3 times normal running amperage. See GENERATOR INFORMATION in this manual.
CHECK LIST
Follow this check list each day before starting your generator.
Record the hour-meter reading in your log (engine hours relate to the maintenance schedule).
Visually inspect the engine for fuel, oil or water leaks.
Check the oil level (dipstick).
Check your diesel fuel supply.
Check the starting batteries (weekly).
Check for abnormal noise such a knocking, vibration and blow by sounds.
Confirm exhaust smoke:
When the engine is cold - White Smoke.
When the engine is warm - almost Smokeless
When the engine is overloaded - some Black Smoke
Make sure the cooling water is discharging properly, outboard from the exhaust outlet.
NOTE: After the first 20 hours of generator operation, check the maintenance schedule for the first 20 hours service check.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the generator for long periods of
time without a load being placed on the generator.
STOPPING THE GENERATOR
Remove the AC loads from the generator one at a time and allow the generator to run for an additional 3 to 5 minutes (this
stabilizes its operating temperature).
To stop the generator, press the STOP button on the control panel; shutdown is automatic.
Check the lube oil level a few minutes after stopping the engine, because lube oil from the bearings etc. continues to drain
down into the oil sump. Disregarding this fact and not maintaining the proper oil level may lead to overfilling, causing
overheating and the possibility of engine runway.
After shutdown, carefully inspect the generator. Check for possible leaks from all the connections inside the sound-shield.
