10-2. 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.

Y Do not

perform

run-in

 

 

 

procedure at less than 20

 

 

 

1

volts weld output and do not

 

 

 

exceed duty cycle or equip-

 

 

 

 

ment damage may occur.

 

 

 

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 V/A control in minimum posi-

 

 

 

tion, 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

 

 

 

connectors.

Observe

correct

 

 

 

polarity.

 

 

 

 

 

Start engine and run for several

 

 

 

minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Set load bank switches and then

 

3

 

adjust generator A/V control so load

 

 

equals rated voltage and current of

 

 

 

 

 

 

generator (see nameplate, rating

 

 

 

label, or the specifications section

 

 

 

in this manual).

 

 

 

 

 

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.

 

 

 

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.
