added. The battery should be recharged if the terminal voltage is below
12.3 V.
9)
If the battery needs recharging after being taken out of the unit, remove the
vent caps and charge battery with direct current only. Connect the
charger's positive (+) cable to the battery's positive (+) terminal and the
charger's negative (-) cable to the battery's negative (-) terminal. Recharge
battery with a current equaling 1/10 the nominal capacity (Ah). Battery is
fully charged when acid density is 1.28. Before completing recharging
process: turn off charger before disconnecting battery and check
electrolyte level.
10)
If the battery is discharged and you want to perform an emergency startup
with the battery from another generator, first check the tightness of the
discharged battery's terminals. Stop the engines of both units and connect
the two positive terminals of the batteries first and then connect the
negative terminal of the charged battery to a metal area on the disabled
unit (ground). Start up the auxiliary unit and then the unit being repaired.
Disconnect the cables in reverse order to avoid a short circuit. Finally, fully
charge the battery.
11)
Installation of the fuel filter in all units means that the operator must
constantly monitor the water buildup and drain as it becomes filled. This
does not entail an inconvenience but rather simply keeping an eye on the
transparent tank in order to know when to drain. If the filter were to
become worn out, it should be replaced.
12)
The oil draining pump improves the draining process, saves time and
facilitates maintenance.
13)
The fuel tank includes a drain hatch to provide quick access and a safety
valve to prevent fuel from being extracted through the outlet on the base
frame
14)
The radiator is drained through the base frame outlet.
15)
For maintaining the canopy, we recommend cleaning periodically to avoid
dirt buildup. The unit's galvanized canopy prevents corrosion and rust.
Note: While performing preventive maintenance tasks it is advisable to wear protective eyewear and
gloves during all operations involving the handling of battery acid.
