Service Daily
If the engine is operating in very
dusty
or
dry grass
conditions, a clogged air cleaner will result. This can lead to
a loss of power, excessive carbon buildup in the combustion
chamber and high fuel consumption. Change air cleaner
more
frequently
if these conditions exists.
Fuel Addition
Add diesel fuel (the grade may vary according to season
and locations). Always pour through the mesh filter.
Removing Water from the Fuel Tank
After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulate
in the bottom of the tank. Occasionally inspect the fuel tank
for water contamination and drain the contents if required.
During cold weather, the more empty volume inside the tank,
the easier it is for water to condense. This can be reduced
by keeping the tank full with diesel fuel.
General Inspection
Prior to each use, the generator should be cleaned and
inspected for deficiencies. Check for loose, missing or
damaged nuts, bolts or other fasteners. Also check for fuel,
oil, and coolant leaks.
Engine Side (Refer to the Engine Instruction Manual)
Air Cleaner
Every 250 hours: Remove air cleaner element and clean the
heavy duty paper element with light spray of compressed
air. Replace the air cleaner as needed.
Air Cleaner with Dust Indicator
This indicator is attached to the air cleaner. When the air
cleaner element is clogged, air intake restriction becomes
greater and the dust indicator signal shows RED meaning
the element needs changing. After changing the air element,
press the dust indicator button to reset the indicator.
