STARTUP
8.The engine oil pressure gauge (Figure 48) will indicate the oil pressure of the engine. Under normal operating conditions the oil pressure is approximately 28~71 psi (193~490 kPa).

9.The coolant temperature gauge (Figure 49) will indicate the coolant temperature. Under normal operating conditions the coolant temperature is between 165°~203° F. (74°~95° C).

12.Observe the generator's ammeter (Figure 52) and verify it reads the anticipated amount of current with respect to the load. The ammeter will only display a current reading if the load is in use.
10.The tachometer (Figure 50) will indicate the speed of the engine when the generator is operating. Under normal operating conditions this speed is approximately 1800 RPM’s.
