safely. B. Never attempt to lift the equipment unless you are certain the lifting device has sufficient capacity. C. Never allow the equipment to swing while suspended. D. Be certain the supporting structure is adequate to handle the load. 8. TOWING THE EQUIPMENT - When towing this equipment, always use a vehicle large enough for safe operation. A. Never tow without the safety chains secured. B. Always use the proper size hitch ball on the vehicle. C.

HOT. Connecting the positive cable last may result in an accidental short circuit of the positive battery terminal to any of the surrounding metal surfaces (i.e. dropping a tool, wrench swing etc.). Use extreme caution whenever making or breaking the battery connections and follow the correct sequence carefully. INSTALLATION OF LIGHTS The four flood lamps for the Mobile Lighting System have been shipped on a separate pallet to prevent damage during shipment.
panel. Two lights are connected to each 120 volt leg (G1 and G3) of the generator. tower for at least six inches of tower extension. 8. Release the pin and continue to extend the tower to the desired height or until it is fully extended to the tower stop. TOWER PROCEDURES **************WARNING************************ NEVER ATTEMPT TO RAISE THE TOWER WITH THE ENGINE GENERATOR SET REMOVED FROM THE TRAILER BED.
complete the following checklist: Release both switches when the unit starts. 1. Check oil level, refill with proper grade oil. 2. Check for loose bolts or hardware. 3. Check tire pressure. (35 psi) 4. Trailer level to within 15 degrees. 5. Battery securely fastened, connections clean and tight, and proper fluid level. 6. Fuel tank filled with the proper grade of diesel fuel. 7. Check the air cleaner. Service only when indicated. Do not over service. 2. If the temperature is above 14 degrees F.
Every 500 hours Replace air cleaner element. B. Old equipment requires more frequent inspection, and possibly servicing, than similar equipment that has seen less service. C. Time spent in cleaning, inspecting and correcting minor defects before they become major troubles means time saved in overhaul and repair. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE A. Daily Maintenance Checklist **Oil level is maintained between the “L” low mark and the “H” high mark on the dipstick. **Fuel tank full of proper grade of diesel fuel.
(297k) ambient temperature and moisture is suspected, dry the insulation as described later in this section. Note: Measurement of insulation resistance is an important part of an adequate program for the maintenance of electric equipment. The measured values of insulation resistance serve as a useful guide in determining whether or not insulation is defective. Drying, revarnishing, or overhauling may be necessary to prevent failure.
hottest areas on the equipment. Heat applications should be continuous. Interruption of the heating operation to the extent that the equipment cools and approaches ambient temperature, may allow moisture to condense in the insulation and retard the drying process. Drying cannot be hurried. Many hours, or even days, may be required to achieve satisfactory results. 5.

DIAGNOSTIC TABLE GENERATOR SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTION LOW VOLTAGE (UNDER 220 VOLTS LOADED) Engine Speed too Slow Check the no-load engine speed with a frequency meter and adjust the governor to 61.5 Hertz at no-load. Troubleshoot engine and determine why it will not hold the proper speed. Generator Overloaded Measure load being run and compare with nameplate rating. The load on each leg should be as evenly balanced as possible and should not exceed the rated current on any leg.

Consult factory for Defective Main Stator Measure stator resistance (G1 TO N & G3 TO N ). shorts. Replace if defective. Check for ground Short in AC Wiring. Turn off all circuit breakers for the lights and disconnect all external loads. Check all the AC wiring in the control cabinet for shorts. Repair or replace as required.
