ENGINE OPERATING PANEL

Figure 5. Engine Operating Panel

The definitions below describe the controls and functions of the Engine Operating Panel (Figure 5).

1.Panel Light - Normally used in dark places or at night. When activated, panel will luminate. When the generator is not in use, turn the panel light switch to the OFF position.

2.Panel Light Switch- When activated, will turn on control panel light.

3.Oil Pressure Alarm Lamp - Indicates that the oil pressure is too low or high. This condition will cause the engine to shut down.

4.Water Temperature Alarm Lamp - Indicates that the engine water temperature is too high. This condition will cause the engine to shut down.

5.Fuel Filter Alarm Lamp - Indicates that the water level in the fuel filter has risen. Drain the water in the fuel filter strainer when this condition occurs.

6.Pre-heat Lamp - Indicates (ON) when the engine is ready for starting during cold weather operating conditiions.

7.Ignition Switch – Three position switch, stop, run and start. Insert ignition key to start and stop engine.

8.Tachometer – Indicates engine speed in RPM’s for 60 Hz operation. This meter should indicate 1800 RPM’s when the rated load is applied. In addition a built in hour meter will record the number of operational hours that the generator has been in use.

9.Fuel Gauge – Indicates amount of diesel fuel available.

10.Charging Ammeter Gauge – Indicates the current being supplied by the engine’s alternator which provides current for generator’s control circuits and battery charging system.

11.Water Temperature Gauge – During normal operation this gauge should read between 165°~203° F. (74°~95° C).

12.Oil Pressure Gauge – Normal operation should be approximately 28~71 psi (193~490 kPa). When starting the generator the oil pressure may read a bit higher, but after the engine warms up the oil pressure should return to normal.
