ATS stands for "Automatic Transfer Switch". It is a power
transfer device required when using a generator as an
alternative electric power source. Its purpose is to
switch/alternate between the public power grid and the
generator, separating them without the possibility of
simultaneous connection.
There are three sets of electrical connections, a multicore
cable and earthing which should always be connected
according to the needs of the power grid and model of the
ATS in question.
As long as the ATS identifies the existence of mains
electricity, it will remain connected to it. As soon as it
detects a power failure from the mains electricity, it will give
the order to start the generator so that it can start
producing energy.
The generator's engine is designed to run on diesel. Never
use contaminated fuel or an oil and fuel mixture. Avoid dirt
or water in the fuel tank. Otherwise, problems may arise
with the fuel pump and injectors.
To check the fuel level and top up the tank, the engine must
be stopped. When refilling the fuel tank do not add diesel
above the maximum level, the upper limit of the filter.
At high altitude, the usual air–fuel mixture will be extremely
rich. Performance will decrease and fuel consumption will
increase.
If you always use the generator at altitudes above 1000m
above sea level, you should seek specialised technical
assistance to make the necessary adjustments. Even with
proper fuel injection, generator power decreases by an
average of 3.5% for every 300m increase in altitude. The
effect of altitude on power will be greater if the necessary
adjustments are not made.
If an engine prepared for high altitudes is used at low
altitudes,

Before any maintenance or cleaning work, place the
generator on a level surface and press the engine stop
lever (20).
The generator is equipped with an alarm system for
engine
automatically when the oil pressure is low or the amount of
oil in the sump is below the minimum level.
Selecting the right oil is extremely important for preserving
performance and extending engine life. If you use low-
quality lubricating oil or if the oil is not replaced
periodically, the wear and tear on the bearings, cylinder
and other moving components will increase significantly
and the service life of the engine will decrease.
Let the engine run for a while, without connecting any
appliance to the generator and check that the engine
oil level/pressure alarm light stays on. If the light is or turns
on:
1. Place the generator on a flat floor;
2. Open the engine access door (11);
3. Remove the oil filler cap (cap with dipstick) (21);
4. Check the oil level indicated on the dipstick;
5. Add oil (15W40) until the appropriate level is reached;
To change the oil:
6. Place a drain pan under the oil drain plug (23);
7. Remove the oil drain plug and empty all the oil;
8. Tighten the oil drain plug and top up with new oil;
9. Check the level and adjust to the appropriate level.
