Check the fuel level on the fuel
gauge. When fuel is low, fill the fuel tank
with clean fresh DIESEL FUEL.
If fuel spillage occurs, wipe up the
spilled gasoline completely.
The engine's exhaust contains harmful
emissions.
ALWAYS
ventilate the
exhaust when operating inside tunnels,
excavations or buildings. Direct exhaust
away from nearby personnel.
Starting
1. Turn the fuel cock lever to the “ON” position (Figure 13).
7. When the engine starts, the
oil pressure
light and
charge
light should go out. If these lights stay on, stop the
engine immediately and check the system and wiring
(refer to the
Kubota Engine Operator's Manual
).
8. Let the engine idle for five minutes with the
automatic
idle control switch
in the ‘ON’ position.
9. Check the engine for abnormal vibrations, noises and
oil leakage.
10. Check the generator's output voltage by referring to the
AC voltmeter on the control panel. If the meter indicates
120 volts, then 120 VAC can be obtained from the 120 V
and 240V receptacles at the same time.
NEVER turn the key to the ‘START’ position
while the engine is running.
Shutdown
