DIAGNOSTIC TESTS

9.Now check the flywheel magnet by holding a screwdriver at the extreme end of its handle and with its point down. When the tip of the screwdriver is moved to within 3/4 inch (19mm) of the magnet, the blade should be pulled in against the magnet.

10.Now check the flywheel key. The flywheel’s taper is locked on the crankshaft taper by the torque of the flywheel nut. A keyway is provided for alignment only and theoretically carries no load.

Note: If the flywheel key becomes sheared or even partially sheared, ignition timing can change. Incorrect timing can result in hard starting or fail- ure to start.

RESULTS:

If sparking still does not occur after adjusting the armature air gap, testing the ground wires and per- forming the basic flywheel test, replace the ignition magneto(s).

TEST 36 - TEST FUEL SHUTOFF SOLENOID

(FSS)

PROCEDURE

1.Disconnect Wire 16 from the Starter Contactor (SC) located on the starter motor.

2.Remove the air cleaner cover.

3.Place the Start-Run-Stop Switch (SW1) to STOP then to START. When SW1 is activated a click should be heard and or activation of the Fuel Shutoff Solenoid should be felt. It can then be assumed that the Fuel Shutoff Solenoid is functioning.

RESULTS:

Refer to flow chart.

TEST 37: TEST FUEL SHUTOFF SOLENOID

VOLTAGE

PROCEDURE:

1.Set a voltmeter to measure DC voltage.

2.Disconnect the two pin connector from the Fuel Shutoff Solenoid (FSS).

3.Connect the positive meter test lead to the red wire. Connect the negative meter test lead to the black wire. Place the Start- Run-Stop switch (SW1) to START. During cranking, 12 VDC should be measured. If DC voltage is not measured continue testing.

4.Set a voltmeter to measure resistance.

5.Connect one meter test lead to the black wire. Connect the other meter test lead to frame ground. Continuity should be measured. If continuity is not measured repair or replace the black ground wire or correct poor ground connection.

6.Set a voltmeter to measure DC voltage.

7.Remove Wire 14 from the Start-Stop Relay (SSR). Refer to Figure 6-41 on Page 54. Connect the positive meter test lead to the terminal of the SSR that Wire 14 was just removed. Connect the negative meter test lead to frame ground. Place the Start-Run-Stop Switch (SW1) to the start position. 12 VDC should be measured. If 12 VDC is measured repair or replace Wire 14 between the SSR and Resistor 1 or between Resistor 1 and the FSS.

RESULTS:

Refer to flow chart.

5308, 4583, 4451 & 4986, 4582 & 4987 specifications

Guardian Technologies has carved a niche in the market with its innovative air purification and UV-C sanitization products. The company's model numbers, including 4582, 4987, 4451, 4986, 4583, and 5308, represent a diverse range of solutions designed to enhance indoor air quality and safety in both residential and commercial settings.

The Guardian Technologies 4582 is equipped with a true HEPA filter that captures 99.97% of dust, pollen, smoke, and other particles as small as 0.3 microns. This model features a smart sensor that adjusts the fan speed according to the air quality in real-time. The UV-C light technology integrated into this device works to eliminate viruses and bacteria, providing an additional layer of protection against airborne pathogens.

The 4987 model follows suit with similar advanced features but adds a sleek design ideal for modern interiors. With multiple speed settings and a night mode, the 4987 is perfect for bedrooms or quiet spaces. Its energy-efficient operation coupled with an indicator that signals filter replacement ensures that users maintain optimal performance effortlessly.

The Guardian Technologies 4451 and 4986 models are particularly notable for their enhanced capacity and filtration efficiency. Both units incorporate a three-in-one filtration system that includes a pre-filter, activated charcoal filter, and HEPA filter. With their strategic design, these models not only purify the air but also trap common household odors, making them a popular choice for families with pets.

The 4583 model stands out with a unique combination of design and functionality. It features a low-profile design, making it easy to fit into any space. Its UV-C light technology not only disinfects air but can also sanitize surfaces, bridging the gap between air purification and direct sanitation.

Finally, the Guardian Technologies 5308 caters to larger spaces, offering impressive air circulation and filtration capabilities. Equipped with a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter and a powerful fan, it effectively cleans larger areas while maintaining whisper-quiet operation.

In summary, Guardian Technologies’ products exemplify a commitment to improving air quality and promoting health through innovative technology. With features like HEPA filtration, UV-C sanitization, smart sensors, and sleek designs, consumers can choose from a range of models that best fit their needs, ensuring cleaner, safer indoor environments.
