Warning
5. Safety features
5.1. Circuit breaker
The set's electrical circuit is protected by one or more magnetothermal, differential or thermal cut-out switches. In the event of an
overload and/or short circuit, the supply of electrical energy may be cut.
If necessary, replace the circuit breakers in the generating set with circuit breakers with identical nominal ratings and specifications.
5.2. Oil cut-out
If there is no oil in the engine sump or if the oil pressure is low, the oil safety mechanism automatically stops the engine to prevent any
damage.
If this occurs, check the engine oil level and top it up if necessary before looking for any other cause of the problem.
6. Maintenance schedule
6.1. Reminder of use
The maintenance operations to be carried out are described in the maintenance schedule. The interval for this is supplied as a guide
and for generating sets operating with fuel and oil which conform to the specifications given in this manual.
If the generating set is used under extreme conditions, the interval between the maintenance operations must be shortened.
