DCA-60SSI2 — GENERATOR START-UP PROCEDURE
4. Close all engine enclosure doors (Figure 39).
Figure 39. Engine Enclosure Doors
5.Check the voltage selection switch (Figure 40) is at the desired voltage.
Figure 40. Voltage Selection Switch
6.Check to see if the engine throttle lever (Figure
41)is pushed in.

7.Turn the starter switch to ‘PREHEAT’ (Figure 42) until the indicator light turns on. The oil pressure indicator light will initially turn on, but should turn off once the pressure rises.
8.Once the preheat indicator lights, turn the key to ‘START’ (Figure 43). After the engine cranks, release the key to ‘RUN’.

10.The generator's frequency meter (Figure 45) displays the 60 cycle output frequency in HERTZ.
Figure 45. Frequency Meter (Hz)
11.The generator's voltage meter (Figure 46) displays the 120 VAC in VOLTS. If the voltage is not within the specified frequency tolerance, use the voltage adjustment control knob (Figure 47) to increase or decrease the desired voltage.
