General Information

FUEL SYSTEM

DIESR FUEL SYSTEM

Diesel fuel is supplied to the generator set from a base-mounted fuel tank or external source.

Diesel fuels are less volatile than gaseous fuels, however, careless installation can lead to safety hazards and/or serious problems with engine/generator performance and reliability.

NOTE:

Appropriate care should be taken in applications where extremely low ambient temperatures are possible to ensure the temperature of the diesel fuel is not allowed to fall below levels where "gelling" could occur.

SPECIFICATIONS

GENERATOR

Refer to the data plate on the generator for rated watts, amperes, frequency, voltage, phase and other pertinent information. Refer to the drawings in the back of this manual for engine, cooling system, and exhaust system specifications.

ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS

The unit has been filled with 15W-40 engine oil at the factory. Use a high-quality detergent oil classified "For Service SJ and CG/CH". Detergent oils keep the engine cleaner and reduce carbon deposits. Use oil having the following SAE viscosity rating, based on the ambient temperature range anticipated before the next oil change (Figure 1.3).

COOLANT

Use only de-ionized water and Ethylene glycol antifreeze (Propylene glycol can also be used but should not be mixed with Ethylene gly- col - see DANGER below). When adding coolant, always add the recommended 50-50 mixture.

~

A.Do not remove the radiator pressure cap

.... while the engine is hot or serious burns from boiling liquid or steam could result.

A.Ethylene glycol base antifreeze Is poisonous.

.... Do not use mouth to siphon coolant from the radiator, recovery bottle or any container. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Never store used antifreeze in an open container because animals are attracted to the smell and taste of antifreeze even though It is poi- sonous to them.

ACAUTIONI

A.Do not use any chromate base rust Inhibitor

.... with propylene glycol base antifreeze. Using any high silicate antifreeze boosters or addi- tives also will cause overheating. We also recommend that any soluble 011 Inhibitor Is NOT USED for this equipment.

GEARBOX LUBBICATION

If the generator set is equipped with a gearbox, the appropriate lubricant is SAE 90 gear oil.
