9-2. Run-In Procedure Using Load Bank

 

 

Y Stop engine.

 

 

 

Y Do not touch hot exhaust

 

 

 

pipe, engine parts, or load

 

 

 

bank/grid.

 

 

 

Y Keep exhaust and pipe away

 

 

 

from flammables.

 

 

 

1

Load Bank

 

 

 

Turn all load bank switches Off. If

 

 

needed, connect load bank to 115

 

 

volts ac wall receptacle or genera-

 

 

tor auxiliary power receptacle.

 

 

2

Welding Generator

 

 

 

Place A/V range switch in maxi-

 

 

mum position, A/V control in mini-

 

 

mum position, and Output Selector

 

 

switch (if present) in either DC

 

 

position.

3

Weld Cables

 

 

 

Connect load bank to generator

 

 

weld output terminals using proper

 

 

size weld cables with

correct

2

1

connectors. Observe

correct

polarity.

 

 

 

Start engine and run for several

 

 

minutes.

 

 

 

Set load bank switches and then

 

 

adjust generator A/V control so load

 

 

equals rated generator output (see

 

 

nameplate).

 

 

 

Check generator and load bank

 

 

meters after first five minutes then

 

 

every fifteen minutes to be sure

 

 

generator is loaded properly.

 

 

. Check oil level frequently dur-

 

 

 

ing run-in; add oil if needed.

 

3

After one hour (minimum) place A/V

 

control in minimum position, then

 

 

turn off load bank to remove load.

 

 

Run engine several minutes at no

 

 

load.

 

 

 

Y Stop engine and let cool.

 

 

4

Engine Exhaust Pipe

 

 

 

Repeat procedure if wetstacking is

 

 

present.
