Equipment
5-1. Warning Indicators
WARNING : INJURY
Close all doors and place locks during operation, to avoid injuries by
unintentionally contact with moving parts such as the cooling fan and fan belt.
Before performing any equipment check or maintenance, stop the engine, and
remove the engine key. A person performing the maintenance should always
keep the key.
CAUTION : BURNS
Do not touch the engine and surrounding components immediately after
stopping the equipment, while temperature can reach extremely high.
This generator is equipped with the following warning indicators: CHARGE (battery
charge), OIL PRESS (engine oil pressure), WATER TEMP (coolant temperature), OVER
SPEED (engine overspeed), AIR FILTER (air cleaner clogging), and WATER
SEPARATOR (water separator amount). An indicator lights up if a malfunction/fault occurs
during operation and the engine automatically stops depending on the fault type. If the
equipment is normal, the CHARGE and OIL PERSS warning indicators light up when the
starter switch is switched from STOP to RUN, and all warning indicators turn off when the
engine is started.
(1)WATER TEMP (Coolant Temperature) Warning Indicator (High Water Temp.)
CAUTION: BURNS
Do not open the radiator cap immediately after stopping the engine.
Do so will result in hot steam gushing out.
Hot steam gushes out from the coolant sub-tank if the generator overheats. Do
not touch the coolant sub-tank.
If the coolant temperature rises above 115 ° C durin g operation, the WATER TEMP and
ENGINE warning indicators light up, and the engine automatically stops. If this occurs, hot
steam will gush out of the coolant sub-tank. Check the coolant sub-tank coolant level after
the generator cools and add coolant to the coolant sub-tank if it is insufficient. (Refer to
section "8-2. Checking Coolant".) If the coolant is at the specified amount, it is probable
that the fan belt is loose or there is a coolant leak. Wait for the engine to cool and inspect
for these problems.
< Note>
The coolant temperature cannot be detected if the coolant level is excessively low. Always be
sure to check the coolant level in the radiator coolant sub-tank before starting work.
