This document outlines the operation, maintenance, and specifications for the Denyo DCA-30ESX and DCA-40ESX diesel generator sets.
Safety Precautions
The manual emphasizes safety through various warnings and cautions. It highlights the importance of understanding symbols for hazard, unsafe practice, severe injury, or death (WARNING) and for hazard, unsafe practice, personal injury, or property damage (CAUTION). Users are instructed to observe all safety items, ensure proper explanation to outsiders, and avoid modifying the machine or using unauthorized parts to maintain warranty.
Safety labels are affixed to the machine, and users must keep them clean. If labels are damaged or lost, replacements should be requested from the distributor, specifying the nameplate number.
Engine Exhaust: Engine exhaust can be fatal due to lack of oxygen or poisoning by exhaust gases. Insufficient ventilation is a major risk. The machine should not be used in poorly ventilated areas or where exhaust gases may accumulate, such as indoors, in storehouses, tunnels, ships, or tanks. If used in confined spaces, the exhaust pipe must be extended to a well-ventilated area, and a ventilator should be used. Exhaust outlets should not be directed towards pedestrians or houses.
Electric Shock: Electric shock can be fatal. Output terminals should not be touched during operation. If hands or the machine are wet, touching terminals can result in death or serious injury. Wiring work requires turning off the circuit breaker and stopping the machine. The output terminal cover must remain closed, and terminal bolts tightened during operation. Even at low idle speed, a low voltage is generated. All electrical parts should be avoided during operation. The control panel and side door must be closed and locked during operation. When opening the control panel for voltage selection, the circuit breaker must be turned off, and the machine stopped. Improper grounding can lead to electric shock, so grounding of the machine and load must follow local rules.
Moving Parts: Moving parts can cause severe injury. The rotary unit, which runs at high speed, is dangerous to touch. Doors must be closed and locked during operation. If a door needs to be opened, hands and head should be kept away from moving parts to prevent injury. All checks and maintenance must be performed with the machine stopped.
Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel is flammable and can cause fire or explosion. Flammable objects (paper, wood chips, oil, powder) should be kept away from the machine. Spilled fuel and oil must be wiped off.
Hot Coolant: Hot coolant can cause severe scalds. The radiator cap should not be opened when the water temperature is high, as steam or hot water may spout out. During operation or immediately after stopping, the radiator cap should not be opened while the water temperature is high. Cooling water needs to be checked or supplied when the engine is cooled (50°C or less). The reserve tank's cooling water level should be checked, and if below the low limit, water should be supplied. The radiator cap should only be opened once a week to check if water is full. When closing the radiator cap, it must be turned fully clockwise to prevent evaporation of cooling water, which can damage the engine.
Hot Parts: Hot parts can burn skin. High-temperature units are located in the machine. Care must be taken during operation. Inspection or maintenance requires stopping the machine in advance. Even after stopping, the bonnet remains hot, so wait until the engine cools sufficiently.
Stacking: Improper stacking can cause falling or dropping accidents. When stacking other machines, ensure the bonnet is free from damage, fixing bolts are tightened, and the machine is placed horizontally on a solid foundation that can withstand the weight. Machines can be stacked up to two stages, provided the stacked machines' weight and size are less than the base machine. Square timbers should be used to ensure even weight distribution. Machines should not be operated while stacked.
Battery: Batteries generate flammable gases, and improper handling can lead to explosion or serious injury. Charging should occur in a well-ventilated area to prevent gas accumulation and ignition. When connecting booster cables, terminals (+ and -) should not be jumpered, as sparks can ignite flammable gases. For maintenance, the ground cable should be disconnected. Battery acid is dilute sulfuric acid and can cause burns. If acid gets on clothes or skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. If it gets in eyes, wash immediately and consult a doctor, as it can cause blindness. The engine must be stopped before checking or handling the battery.
Operator Safety: Operators should not operate the machine if tired or under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Baggy clothes, necklaces, or other projections that can cause injuries should be avoided.
Noise: The machine generates loud noise when the door is open. Ear protectors should be worn during operation.
Connection to House Wiring: Before connecting to a building's electrical system, a licensed electrician must install an isolation (transfer) switch to prevent serious injury or death.
Transportation: The machine should not be lifted by the support hook or ladder, as they are not strong enough and could cause a falling accident. The hanger located at the roof center should be used for lifting. No one should be under the lifted machine. The machine should not be lifted or transported during operation, as this can damage the fan or cause serious trouble. When loading onto a truck, the machine must be firmly fixed with support hooks on both sides.
