Fuel Supply System
Ensure that all fuel pipe connections are tight, secure and
without leaks.
Ensure that all gas line shutoff valves are OPEN and that
adequate fuel pressure is available whenever automatic
operation is desired.
Engine Oil
The engine is shipped from the factory pre-run and filled
with non-synthetic oil (API SL 10W-30). This allows for system
operation in a wide range of temperature and climate
conditions. Before starting the engine, check oil level and
ensure that engine is serviced as described in the operator’s
manual.
Coolant System
This engine is shipped from the factory filled with a 50-50 mix
of automotive (Ethylene glycol) anti-freeze and water. This
will provide optimum year round protection against freezing,
boiling and corrosion. The coolant system incorporates an
optional water heater that operates with a fixed thermostat
set at 100°F - 120°F (39°C - 49°C) AND utility power is present
at the transfer switch. Before starting the engine, check
coolant level as described in the Maintenance section.
Final Installation Considerations
Battery
The installer must supply and install a valve-regulated
rechargeable starting battery. The starting battery MUST
conform to the specifications shown in this chart.
