Owner's Manual

NOTE:

Depending on the season and the ambient temperature, a different

grade of diesel fuel should be used. If a summer grade fuel is used in the

winter, the summer fuel may freeze preventing the engine from star-

ting. Winter grade fuel is used in the summer could result in a lack of

engine power. Be sure to use the proper grade of diesel fuel which com-

plies with the ambient temperature.

Keep the fuel tank filled in the winter. Water can accumulate from con-

densation if the tank is kept only partially filled. Refill the fuel tank after

each use.

Check the fuel filter before each use for water and contaminates.

Service the fuel filter if any contaminates are found (see page 29).

Air Bleeding

The generator is equipped with an automatic air bleeding system in the

event the engine is run out of fuel. Refill the tank (see page 25). Make sure

that fuel is supplied to the fuel filter, then start the engine (see page 32)‘.

NOTE: Light blue exhaust will be seen and the engine speed may fluc-

tuate as air bleeding is occuring. This is normal. Run the engine without a

load until the engine speed stabilizes and the exhaust smoke clears.
