(1) Low Oil Pressure
CAUTION: BURNS
 Always be sure to stop the engine and allow the engine to cool when
performing inspection or maintenance of engine oil. Opening the oil gauge or
oil filler cap during operation will result in hot oil gushing out.
If the engine oil pressure drops below 0.98 x 100 kPa during operation, the Low Oil
Pressure indicator illuminates on the controller, and "Oil Pressure Low Switch" appear
on the Operation Display, and the engine will be automatically stopped. If this occurs,
check the engine oil level and add engine oil until it reaches the maximum level.
< Note >
 This Low Oil Pressure indicator cannot detect oil deterioration. Change the engine oil
periodically. (Refer to section "8-1. Checking Engine Oil".)
(2) High Coolant Temperature
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 105 °C during operation, the High Coolant
Temperature indicators illuminate on the controller, and "Coolant Temp High Switch"
appear on the Operation Display, and the engine will be automatically stopped. 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.
(3) Air Filter Clogging
If the air cleaner element becomes clogged during operation, the Air Filter Clogging
indicators illuminate on the controller, and "Air Filter Clogging" appear on the Operation
Display. If it is appeared, immediately stop the engine and clean or replace the air
cleaner element. (Refer to section "10. Inspection/Maintenance (3) Air Filter Element
Cleaning/Replacement".)
(4) Overload Pre-Caution
If the output current exceeds around 80% of the rated current, the Overload indicators
illuminate on the controller, and "Over Load Pre-Caution" appear on the Operation
Display. Use this generator in a range that does not exceed the rated current while the
Overload indicators is illuminating. The Overload indicators turns off when the output
current drops below 80% of the rated current.
< Note>
 When the output current reaches the rated current, "Over Current Immediate Warning" is
displayed on the Operation Display and output to the load side is cut.
(5) Fail to Start
If the engine fails to start for three times in succession, "Fail to Start" is displayed on
Operation Display. If that happens, turn the Power Switch to the OFF position, and
inspect the generator. (Refer to section "12. Troubleshooting")
