Before Starting
Learn how to handle the engine, controls and other
equipment in a safe and correct manner before starting
the engine.
Make sure you know how to stop the genset before
starting it (in case of emergency). If the genset is
started for the first time, be prepared to stop the engine
immediately in case abnormal noise should occur
during start up.
WARNING!
Before starting the genset make sure people and tools
are out of contact with moving parts of the engine or
the generator. Notify people in the vicinity of the genset
when starting.
IMPORTANT!
Always keep the engine room well ventilated.
Insufficient airsupply to the engine means imperfect
combustion and loss of power.
IMPORTANT!
If the starter motor has been engaged for the maximum
time (30 seconds), it must be allowed to cool down for
at least one minute before a new attempt is made at
starting.
