NOTICE

For light tower operation, refer to the MLT25 Series Operation Manual (Part Number 49808).

Normal Shutdown Procedure

WARNING

NEVER stop the engine suddenly except in an emergency.

To shutdown the generator, use the following procedure:

1.Place both the MAIN, GFCI and LOAD circuit breakers as shown in Figure 50 to the OFF position.

Circuit Breakers Off

2.Let the engine cool by running it at low speed for 3-5 minutes with no load applied.

3.Place the ignition switch (Figure 51) in the “STOP” position, remove the key and store in a safe place.

Figure 51. Ignition Switch (Stop Position)

4.Remove all loads from the generator.

5.Inspect entire generator for any damage or loosening of components that may have occurred during operation.

Emergency Shutdown Procedure

1.Turn ignition switch key to the STOP position.

2.To shut-down the engine in the event of an emergency, switch the MAIN, GFCI and LOAD (Figure 50) circuit breakers to OFF position.

Automatic Shut-down System

This unit is equipped with safety devices to automatically stop the engine in the event of low oil pressure, approximately 14 psi (97 kPa), or high water temperature, approximately 230° F (110° C). The alarm lamps on the Engine Control Panel illuminate to signify the reason for the shutdown.

NOTICE

Before inspecting, turn the ignition switch to the STOP position, place all circuit breakers in the OFF position and allow sufficient time for adequate cooling. When ready to restart, complete all steps in the Generator Startup Procedure section of this manual.
