10.14 Continued.
opposite number is leaking when non-energized. Replace the defective solenoid
valve.
10.15
Should the purge valve, Figures 3 and 8 (12), flow setting be accidently altered,
consult the factory for loan of a proper rotameter and instructions for resetting.

THE METHANE REACTOR
10.17
When the POWER switch is depressed, power is applied to the methane reactor.
The METHANE HEAT lamp should light and within a few minutes there should be
an upscale deflection of the pyrometer, Figures 1 and 6 (11).
(a)
If the METHANE HEAT lamp does not light, wait several minutes to see if
there is an upscale deflection of the pyrometer. If there is, the lamp is
defective. Replace lamp.
(b)
If neither the METHANE HEAT lamp nor the POWER switch lamp lights,
check POWER fuse, Figures 1 and 6 (2). REMOVE POWER CORD FROM
WALL OUTLET WHEN CHECKING OR CHANGING FUSES. If the fuse is
okay but the pyrometer indicates a temperature rise after a few minutes
though both lamps are not lighted, both lamps are defective. Replace lamps.
(c)
If the fuse is blown in (B), REMOVE POWER CORD FROM POWER
RECEPTACLE and remove the cover of the generator unit. Disconnect the
black electrical lead at position 5 of TS-1 which leads to the methane reactor,
Figures 5 and 8 (2). Install new fuse.
(d)
If fuse blows when POWER switch is on, disconnect the power cord at the
cooling fan, Figures 5 and 8(11). Replace fuse. REMOVE POWER CORD
FROM WALL OUTLET WHEN CHECKING OR CHANGING FUSES. If fuse
blows again, the POWER switch is defective and must be replaced. If the
fuse does not blow, the cooling fan is shorted. Replace fan.
10.18
If the fuse does not blow in Section 10.17 (C) after depressing the POWER switch,
the problem is the methane reactor.
(a)
Check each resistance between white or black wire in 3-conductor leading to
methane reactor and chassis. If resistance is infinite, methane reactor wiring
is okay. Replace fuse. REMOVE POWER CORD FROM WALL OUTLET
WHEN CHECKING OR CHANGING FUSES. Unit should operate properly.
