3.5.3 Visual and Audible Alarm
An external indicator or audible alarm can be wired to the generator set. Make
sure that external fault indicator or audible alarm is rated for 2 amperes maximum and
12 or 24VDC depending on the DC voltage of the system. The indicator will become
illuminated or the alarm will sound when an overcrank, low oil pressure, high coolant
temperature or overspeed condition occurs.
3.6 Engine Starting

3.6.1 Before Starting Engine

Perform the required daily maintenance and other periodic maintenance before
the engine is started. Inspect the engine compartment. This inspection can help
prevent major repairs at a later date.
◆
In order to maximize the service life of the engine, make a thorough inspection
before starting the engine. Look for the following items: oil leaks, coolant leaks,
loose bolts, and trash buildup. Remove trash buildup and arrange for repairs, as
needed.
◆
Inspect the cooling system hoses for cracks and lose clamps.
◆
Inspect the alternator and accessory drive belts for cracks, breaks, and other
damage.
◆
Inspect the wiring for loose connection and wear.
◆
Check the fuel supply. Drain water from the water separator (if equipped). Open
the fuel supply valve.
All valves of the fuel return line must be open before and during engine operation to
prevent high fuel pressure. High fuel pressure may cause filter housing failure or
other damage.
If the engine has not been started for several weeks, the fuel may have entered
the filter housing. Also, when fuel filters have been changed, some air pockets will be
trapped in the engine. In these cases, prime the fuel system.
Engine exhaust contains products of combustion which may be harmful to your
health. Always start and operate the engine in a well ventilated area and, if in an
enclosed area, vent the exhaust to the outside.
◆ Do not start the engine if there is a "DO NOT OPERATE" warning tag or similar
warning tag attached to the start switch or the controls.
◆ All of the guards must be put in place. Check damaged guards and missing
guards. Repair the damaged guards. Replace damaged and/or missing guards.
◆ Check the battery and cables for poor connection.
◆ Reset all of the shutoffs or alarm components.
