3.2.8Check Stopping of Generating Set
(1)Disconnect the load from the generating
set.
(2)Turn off the air switch of the generating
set.
(3)Set the speed lever at RUN position,
run the generating set without load for
about 3 minutes. Do not stop the engine
suddenly, otherwise the temperature will
increase abnormally, the nozzle will
blocked and the generating set will be
damaged.
Press down the stop lever.
Concerning the electric starter, turn the key to OFF.
Turn the fuel cock lever to S position.
Pull out the recoil starter handle until you feel resistance (at this position, both
intake/exhaust valve are closed.) and leave the handle in this position. This
prevents the engine from rust.
If the engine keep on running even after the speed lever is placed at the
STOP position, either turn the fuel cock to the CLOSE position or loosen the
nut of high pressure fuel pipe on the pump side to stop the engine.
Do not stop the engine with the decompression lever.
Do not stop the generating set with load. Stop it after the load removed.
WARNING
4. MAINTENANCE
4.1 Oil-line and intake/exhaust parts
This section mainly deal with the actions which should be taken while a fault of
engine oil, oil quantity variation, air cleaner, oil line or oil tank presents.
(1) In case of excessive engine oil filled (exceeds 2/3) or white smoke emitted
from engine during generating set running, drain the oil.
(2) Refill engine oil to prescribed level. The low oil alert lamp will on and the
generating set will stop automatically.
(3) If the abnormal condition still presents, carry out the troubleshooting checks
for engine automatic stopping
4.1.1 Engine oil
Check oil level.
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and the generating set on a
level surface.
(1) Open the cabinet door.
(2) Remove the oil filler cap and check the oil level, note that the oil level should
be a bit lower the oil filler.
(3) If the oil level is low, refill oil to a position a bit lower the oil filler.
Check the stability of engine oil. Check that no impurity is adulterated.
Recommended engine oil: SAE10W-30 or SAE30, grade SE, SF, or SG of API
service classification.
Engine oil is the main factor to affect the engine service life. Use four-stroke
automatically purifying oil.
Recommended oil of SAE10W-30 is commonly used. When the average
temperature of user's area is within the applicable range for recommended
engine oil, the engine oil of other viscosity may be used.
Viscosity table.
(4) Tighten the oil filler cap.
4.1.2 Replace engine oil
Drain the oil while the engine is still warm, since hot oil is drained fast and
thoroughly.
(1) Remove service cap. Remove the oil filler cap. Drain the old oil into a suitable
container.
For environment protection it is recommended to put the waste engine oil in a
sealed container and delivery it to service station or recycle center of user's area.
Never pour the engine oil on the ground or debris.
Caution: The used engine oil contains cancerogenous substance. If contact with
skin frequently or for long time, skin cancer would be caused. Clean your hands
with soak thoroughly and rinse it immediately.
