STARTUP

Before Starting

CAUTION - LETHAL EXHAUST HAZARD

The engine's exhaust contains harmful emissions.

ALWAYS have adequate ventilation when operating.

Direct exhaust away from nearby personnel.

WARNING - STARTINGTHE GENERATOR

Start-up Procedure

1.Place the voltage selector switch in the desired voltage position (Figure 40).

NEVER! manually start the engine with the main, GFCI or auxiliary circuit breakers in the ON (closed) position.

1.Place the main, G.F.C.I., and aux. circuit breakers (Figure 38) in the OFF position prior to starting the engine.

Circuit Breakers (OFF)

2.Connect the load to the receptacles or the Output Terminal Lugs as shown in (Figure 11). These load connection points can be found on the output terminal panel and the output terminal panel’s hard wire hookup panel.

3.The output terminal lugs are protected by a plastic cover. Remove this cover to gain access to the terminals. Tighten terminal nuts securely to prevent load wires from slipping out.

4.Close all engine enclosure doors (Figure 39).

DCA25USI2XF, DCA25USIXF specifications

Multiquip is a renowned name in the construction and industrial equipment sector, known for delivering high-performance generators that cater to various power needs. Two standout models in their lineup are the DCA25USIXF and DCA25USI2XF, both designed for reliability, efficiency, and versatility.

The Multiquip DCA25USIXF is a compact, industrial-grade diesel generator that delivers a powerful 25 kVA, making it ideal for construction sites, outdoor events, and emergency backup applications. This model is powered by a robust Yanmar diesel engine, which ensures high fuel efficiency and low emissions, adhering to stringent environmental standards. The DCA25USIXF features an advanced digital control panel, providing users with an intuitive interface for monitoring performance, voltage output, and operational status. Its sound-attenuated enclosure significantly reduces noise levels, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive areas.

On the other hand, the DCA25USI2XF model takes power generation a step further by offering dual voltage capabilities, allowing users to switch between 120V and 240V outputs. This flexibility makes it highly versatile, catering to a broader range of tools and equipment. Like the DCA25USIXF, the DCA25USI2XF is also equipped with Yanmar’s reliable diesel engine, which contributes to its durability and long service life. Both models come with a heavy-duty frame to withstand tough conditions, ensuring durability on job sites.

The technology implemented in these generators includes automatic voltage regulation (AVR), which stabilizes voltage output, protecting sensitive equipment from power surges. Additionally, the generators feature a low oil shutdown system, which prevents engine damage by automatically shutting down the generator when oil levels are low. This protective measure not only enhances the longevity of the generator but also contributes to safer operation.

In terms of portability, both models are equipped with rugged wheels and a lifting eye, facilitating easy transportation to various job sites. With their combination of power, efficiency, and advanced features, the Multiquip DCA25USIXF and DCA25USI2XF generators are excellent choices for professionals seeking reliable power solutions in demanding environments. Whether for construction, events, or standby power, these generators deliver exceptional performance tailored to meet diverse needs.
