OPERATING THE DIESEL GENERATOR
NOTE: During operation, the generator should be put in a place with good
ventilation. Never cover open frame generator using your own cage to solve a
noisy problem, as this will cause overheating problem and then damage your
generator. You must obtain our prior authorization for any change in our
generator. Otherwise, the warranty for your generator will be voided.
Do not apply more than two loads simultaneously. Each load should be started
one by one to avoid overloading generator The generator should be running at
3600 revolutions per minute in order to achieve the frequency of 60Hz. The
speed of engine can be adjusted through speed governor.
CAUTION: A alternator consists of windings, namely R2 & R1 and L2 & Li,
each set of winding gives 120V output. A voltage selector is used to obtain
120V and/or 240V output. Two sets of windings are in parallel when a selector is
set at left while two sets of windings are in serial when a selector is set at
right. If you push voltage selector left for only 120V output, you can apply full
rated load at 120V outlet; if push selector right for both 120V & 240V outputs,
you can apply full rated load at 240V outlet from four-prong socket; however,
you can only apply HALF RATED LOAD at either 120V outlet (total two 120V
outlets) from four-prong socket.
