Before Starting

CAUTION - LETHAL EXHAUST HAZARD

The engine's exhaust contains harmful emissions.

ALWAYS have adequate ventilation when operating.

Direct exhaust away from nearby personnel.

WARNING - STARTINGTHE GENERATOR

NEVER! manually start the engine with the main, GFCI or auxiliary circuit breakers in the ON (closed) position.

1.Place the main, G.F.C.I., and aux. circuit breakers (Figure 37) in the OFF position prior to starting the engine.

Starting (Manual)

1.In cold weather conditions, press and hold the pre-heat button (Figure 39) for at least 50 seconds to warm the engine glow plugs.

Figure 39. Pre-Heat Button

2.Place the engine speed switch (Figure 40) in the “LOW ” (down) position.

Figure 40. Engine Speed Switch (Low)

3.Once the engine glow plugs have been warmed, place the MPEC Control Switch in the MANUAL position to start the engine (Figure 41).

Figure 37. Main, Aux. and GFCI

Circuit Breakers (OFF)

2.Make sure the the voltage change-over board has been configured for the desired output voltage.

3.Connect the load to the receptacles or the output terminal lugs as shown in Figure 12. These load connection points can be found on the output terminal panel and the output terminal panel’s hard wire hookup panel.

4.Tighten terminal nuts securely to prevent load wires from slipping out.

5.Close all engine enclosure doors (Figure 38).
