Lube Oil Maintainer System
Description
NOTE: Oil reservoir is empty when shipped from factory.
Fill with clean engine oil to activate the system.
The 36 kW, 45 kW, and 60 kW models are equipped with
a
Lube Oil Maintainer System. The system is installed at
the factory and calibrated at the factory to the correct
engine-running crankcase oil level. As needed, the
system keeps the engine lubricating oil full by
automatically adding clean oil from the oil supply tank.
NOTE: The Lube Oil Maintainer System is equipped
wit
h three wires (red, white, black) which are not
used in this unit.
See Figure 5-15. The green bar (A) observed through
the
viewing lens (B) shows the normal oil level operating
range of the Lube Oil Maintainer Regulator during engine
running operation. When the oil level is within the green
bar, the internal float holds the inlet valve closed to keep
the crankcase oil at the current level.
As the engine uses oil, the float drops to open the inlet
valve a
nd allow clean oil to be supplied to the crankcase,
replenishing engine oil to the full mark indicated on the oil
dipstick. The float then rises with the crankcase oil level
until it reaches a point where the inlet valve closes.
When the oil level as observed through the viewing lens
is
below the normal operating range green bar, it is an
indication that the oil supply tank is low or the oil inlet
screen is clogged (C).
NOTE: It
is normal for the oil level to be above the
normal operating range green bar (D) when engine is not
running.
