Section 3 — Operation

Bryant Liquid-cooled 15 kW Generators

Before starting the generator for the first time, the installer must complete the following procedures. For follow-up maintenance information and/or service intervals, please refer to Section 4, “Maintenance.”

‹2.11.2 TRANSFER SWITCH

If this generator is used to supply power to any elec- trical system normally powered by an electric utility, the National Electrical Code requires that a transfer switch be installed. The transfer switch prevents elec- trical backfeed between two different electrical sys- tems. (For additional information, see the applicable transfer switch manual for this unit.) The transfer switch, as well as the generator and other standby components, must be properly located and mounted in strict compliance with applicable codes, standards and regulations.

‹2.11.7 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Make sure the generator is properly connected to an approved earth ground and/or ground rod.

Make sure the generator battery is fully charged, properly installed and interconnected, and ready for use.

Check to ensure that there are no loose electrical con- nections. Restrain any loose wires to keep them clear of any moving generator set components.

‹2.11.3 FUEL SYSTEM

Make sure the fuel supply system to the generator (a) delivers the correct fuel at the correct pressure and

(b)is properly purged and leak tested according to code. No fuel leakage is permitted. See “Specifications” (Section 1.10) for more information.

‹2.11.4 GENERATOR SET LUBRICATION

Check the engine crankcase oil level before operating and add oil to the proper level – the dipstick “FULL” mark. Never operate the engine with the oil level below the dipstick “ADD” mark. See “Specifications” (Section 1.10) and “Engine Oil Recommendations” (Section 1.14).

NOTE:

This engine is shipped from the manufacturer with 15W-40 oil. This oil should be changed after 30 hours of operation.

‹2.11.5 ENGINE COOLANT

Have the engine cooling system properly filled with the recommended coolant mixture. Check the system for leaks and other problems. See “Specifications” (Section 1.10) and “Coolant” (Section 1.15).

‹2.11.6 BELT TENSION

Check the engine fan belt tension and condition prior to placing the unit into service and at recommended intervals. Belt tension is correct when a force of approximately 22 pounds (10 kg), applied midway between pulleys, deflects the belt about 3/8- to 5/8- inch (10 to 16 mm).

‹3.1.1 AUTO/OFF/MANUAL SWITCH

Use this three-position switch as follows:

Set the switch to AUTO for fully automatic opera- tion. See “Automatic Operation”, Section 3.4.

Set switch to MANUAL position to crank and start the generator engine.

Set switch to OFF position to shut down an oper- ating engine. With OFF selected, operation will not be possible.

DANGER

With switch set to AUTO, engine can crank and

!start suddenly without warning. Such automat- ic start up normally occurs when UTILITY source voltage drops below a pre-set level. To prevent possible injury that might be caused by such sudden starts, set AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to OFF before working on or around the unit. Then, place a "DO NOT OPERATE" tag on con- trol console.
