Introduction Thank you for purchasing this Shindaiwa soundproof diesel engine generator. This manual has been created to ensure safe usage of this generator. Be sure to read this manual before operation. Improper operation/handling of this generator will result in an accident or malfunction.
1. Safety Instructions WARNING : SUFFOCATION FROM EXHAUST FUME Do not operate the generator in poorly ventilated areas such as indoors or tunnels, as the exhaust gas of the engine contains substances that are harmful to human health. Do not direct exhaust fumes at bystanders or buildings. WARNING : ELECTRIC SHOCK ...

CAUTION : EXPLOSION Never use or recharge the battery if the fluid level is below the minimum level. Do not create sparks or bring flame near the battery as it generates flammable gas. CAUTION : FIRE Do not bring flammable items (such as fuel, gas and paint) or items that are highly combustible near the generator as the muffler, exhaust gas and other parts become extremely hot.

⑤ HORN RESET button Use this button deactivate the horn output without acknowledging the alarms. ⑥ FAULT RESET button Use this button to acknowledge alarms and deactivate the horn output. Inactive alarm will disappear immediately and status of active alarms will be changed to “confirmed” so they will disappear as soon as their reasons dismiss.
5-2. Switches (1) Power Switch / Air Bleeding This is the main Power Switch of the generator. When the Power Switch turned to OFF position, the Controller is OFF. When the Power Switch turned to AIR BLEEDING position, automatically starts air-bleeding device. (2) Emergency Stop Button This button is used to stop the engine in emergency.
(5) 3-Phase Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (3P ELCB) 1-Phase Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (1P ELCB) Each receptacle, 3-Phase and 1-Phase is TEST TEST incorporated with ELCB respectively. When current leak occurs, it trips to stop power transmission to load. 3P ELCB 1P ELCB <...
< Note > When disconnecting piping from the external tank, turn the lever to the “A” side, and attach the bundled plug (R3/8”)to the external tank fuel inlet/return. (2) If using an external fuel tank Connect hoses from the external fuel tank to the 3Way Fuel external fuel inlet and the external fuel return.
6-2. Installation Procedures WARNING : SUFFOCATION FROM EXHAUST FUME Do not operate the generator in poorly ventilated areas such as indoors or tunnels, as the exhaust gas of the engine contains substances that are harmful to human health. Do not direct exhaust fumes at pedestrians or buildings. CAUTION : FIRE ...

The generator is provided with the earth leakage breaker relay to detect any leakage produced due to such the trouble as insulation failure of the load while the generator is running and to cut off the circuit for protection against any accident such as electrical shock resulting from the trouble.
(3) Earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) has activated When the ELCB has activated, repair the leakage point and restore it by the following procedure. (Overload happens when the breaker activates but the Earth leakage breaker does not activate.) ① Turn the 3-Phase ELCB to ON to restore. Turn the 1-Phase ELCB to ON to restore.
(2) Engine Oil Viscosity Use a diesel engine oil with an appropriate viscosity corresponding to the ambient temperature (refer to the table). Relation of Viscosity/Temperature SAE30 Temp. (°F) SAE 10W-30 (3) Engine Oil Replacement Amount (Unit: Liter) Total Lubrication Oil Amount 13.2 (0.4) Value in parenthesis is the filter capacity.
< Note > Be sure to use the long life coolant (LLC) for the aluminium radiator only. The coolant should be mixed good quality softened tap water with anti-freezing and anti-rust liquid. At ex-factory, the LLC mix ratio is 30% liquid and 70% water is installed. (Isuzu Genuine LLC: Besco LLC Super-Type E).
< Note > The types of liquids that can accumulate in the spill containment include oil, fuel, coolant and battery fluid such that it is not possible to distinguish between rain water and other liquids. Dispose of flushed liquids according to the related laws and regulations. ...
9. Operating Procedures 9-1. Initial Startup/Pre-Check WARNING : EXHAUST GAS POISONING Do not operate the generator in poorly ventilated areas such as an indoors or tunnels, as the exhaust gas of the engine contains substances that are harmful to human health. ...
