• Make sure that t the alternator windings and assembly are not damp, or dirty. Failure to do so could result in damage to the alternator windings. If windings are observed to be damp/dirty contact your JCB dealer. • Make sure that all the engine access doors are closed and secured.

GENERAL CHECKS Checks After Running Ensure that the electrical load is switched OFF before stopping the engine. • Check that battery isolator is at 'off' position. • Fill the fuel tank. Make sure that the filler cap and the area around the filler opening are clean to avoid contamination of the fuel.

CONTROL PANEL – DSE 7310 This button is only active in the STOP/RESET mode, MANUAL mode. Pressing the Start button in Stop/Reset Mode powers up the engine’s ECU but does not start the engine. This can be used to check the status of the CAN communication and to prime the fuel system Used for navigating the instrumentation, event log and configuration screens.

CONTROL PANEL - DSE Operation Single generator, controlled manually through its genset controller. Load is monitored by the operator. Starting Procedure Perform all the pre-start checks before starting the generator. Turn ON battery isolator 1. Make sure ALL power output supply MCCB’s are switched off. 2.

CONTROL PANEL - DSE Operation Single generator, controlled manually through its genset controller. Load is monitored by the operator. Stopping Procedure Perform the procedure below to stop the generator: 1. To stop the generator, remove any electrical loads. 2. Turn the main power supply MCCB to off position. 3.
BATTERY ISOLATOR The battery isolator switch is used to disconnect the battery from the machine electrics. The switch must be turned to the off position if any maintenance work is to be performed on the machine. Some machine systems perform shut down cycles after the engine stops. Wait until shut down cycles are complete before setting the battery isolator switch to the off position.
Page 20
FUEL CONNECTIONS (WHERE FITTED) The optional 3-Way Fuel Valve allows the generator to be connected to feed and return to a remote bulk tank. The selection lever dictates if the engine will feed from either the base tank or bulk tank. This selection lever should be fully engaged in the chosen position.
Page 21
LIFTING The generating set should only be lifted using the designated lifting points or the fork pockets where provided. Do not lift the unit by the alternator or engine lifting eyes. These are designed only to carry the weight of the specific unit (engine or alternator) and not for the weight of the fully assembled generating set.

When filling with fuel, choose a well aired and ventilated area. Important: Consult your fuel supplier or JCB dealer about the suitability of any fuel you are unsure of. 1. Open the rear right door to get access to the fuel tank filler cap.
Page 23
DEF FILLING A DEF filler cap 1. Open the rear left door to get access to the DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) tank filler cap. 2. Remove all unwanted material around the DEF cap. 3. Remove the DEF cap. 4. Add the DEF through the filler neck as necessary. 5.
EMERGENCY STOPS A machine isolation button/emergency stop button is mounted externally on the canopy If pressed, all machine systems will stop completely. Use the emergency stop button in the case of an emergency or if the machine becomes unsafe and does not shutdown automatically. NOTE: Activation of either of the emergency stop buttons will put the generator into a fault mode.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - OPERATOR Interval (h) Calendar Equivalent Daily Weekly Three months Six months Yearly 1200 Eighteen months Service task can be completed by a competent operator. Details of how to complete the task are given in the operators manual We recommend that a Service Engineer completes the service task.

(10) Check which coolant type is installed in the machine before topping up the coolant. Mixing of different coolant types is not recommended and may result in invalidation of the warranty offered by JCB. In the event of mixing or if the coolant type is to be changed, the coolant circuit should be completely drained and flushed twice with clean water before re-filling with fresh coolant.
SERVICE CHECKS Oil - Check (Level) Oil is toxic. If you swallow any oil, do not induce vomiting, seek medical advice. Used engine oil contains harmful contaminants which can cause skin cancer. Do not handle used engine oil more than necessary.
Page 28
SERVICE CHECKS Coolant - Check (Level) CAUTION! The cooling system is pressurised when the coolant is hot. When you remove the cap, hot coolant can spray out and burn you. Make sure that the engine is cool before you work on the cooling system. In most cases the generating set is supplied pre-filled with radiator coolant.
Page 29
SERVICE CHECKS Air Filter - Check (Condition) Engine performance and durability will be severely affected if the quality of the air intake is poor. A dirty and blocked air cleaner element will reduce the amount of air entering the combustion chamber which can cause engine mis-firing, black smoke and low output power.
