15. The engine oil pressure gauge (Figure 52) will indicate
the oil pressure (kg/ cm

)
of the engine. Under normal
operating conditions the oil pressure is approximately

17. The
tachometer gauge
(Figure 54) will indicate the
speed of the engine when the generator is operating.
Under normal operating conditions this speed is
approximately 1800 RPM’s.
16. The
coolant temperature gauge
(Figure 53) will indicate
the coolant temperature. Under normal operating
conditions the coolant temperature should be between
165 and 215 degrees Fahrenheit (

19. Observe the generator's ammeter (Figure 56) and verify
it reads the anticipated amount of current with respect
to the load. The ammeter will only display a current
reading if a load is in use.
20. The generator will run until manually stopped or an
abnormal condition occurs.
