WARNING! Prolonged cranking intervals without the engine starting can result in the engine exhaust
system filling with raw water. This may happen because the pump is pumping raw water through the
raw water-cooling system during cranking. This raw water can enter the engine's cylinder once the
exhaust system fills. Prevent this from happening by closing the raw supply through-hull shutoff,
draining the exhaust muffler, and correcting the cause of the excessive engine cranking. Remember
that engine damage resulting from raw water entry is not covered by VTE S.r.l.'s warranty.
WARNING! Never operate the engine for long periods of time without an amperage load being applied,
otherwise carbon build-up may occur which can cause severe damage to the engine.
7.3 OPERATING THE GENERATOR
After the generator has started, run it with a medium load for warm up. If possible, apply the load in stages.
Operate the generator no more than 70% of the load for the first 50 hours.
WARNING! 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.
Always avoid overload. 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.
7.3.1 Check list
Follow the following check-list every day before starting the 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.
