Set-Up For Operation Diesel Engine - Mosa S Series Use And Maintenance Manual

BATTERY WITHOUT MAINTENANCE
(WHERE IT IS ASSEMBLED)
The supplied battery is generally ready for use.
Connect the cable + (positive) to the pole + of the battery, by
properly tightening the clamp.
In some models the battery should be activated.
To activate it (fill the included acid) please follow the instructions
shown on the manual attached to the battery. When battery is
activated, DON'T add any other liquid.
LUBRICANT
Please refer to the motor operating manual for the recommen-
ded viscosity.
Oil filling and level ispections must be carried out with the engine
on a flat surface:
1. Remove oil filler cap (24);
2. Pour the oil in and reassemble oil cap;
3. Check the oil level using the dipstick (23); the oil level must
be comprised between the minimum and maximum indicators.
ATTENTION
!
It is dangerous to supply too much lube oil to the engine
because a sudden increase in engine rpm could be caused
by its combustion.
DRY AIR FILTER
Check that the dry air filter is correctly installed and that there
are no leaks around the filter which could lead to infiltrations of
non-filtered air to the inside of the motor.
OIL BATH AIR FILTER
Fill the air filter using the same engine oil up to the level indi-
cated on the filter.
SET-UP FOR OPERATION
FUEL
ATTENTION
!
Stop engine when fueling. Do not smoke or use
open flames during refuelling operations, in order
to avoid explosions or fire hazards.
Fuel fumes are highly toxic; carry out operations
outdoors only, or in a well-ventilated environment.
Avoid accidentally spilling fuel. Clean any even-
tual leaks before starting up motor.
Refill the tank with good quality diesel fuel, such as automobile
type diesel fuel, for example.
For further details on the type of diesel fuel to use, see the motor
operating manual supplied.
Do not fill the tank completely; leave a space of approx. 10
mm between the fuel level and the wall of the tank to allow for
expansion.
In rigid environmental temperature conditions, use special
winterized diesel fuels or specific additives in order to avoid
the formation of paraffin.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
ATTENTION
A qualified electrician should carry out electrical connec-
tions according to the norms in force.
The electrical connection to the User system is a very impor-
tant operation: safety and good operation of the genset and
User system depend on a correct electrical connection.
Before supplying User system always check:
• that wires connecting gen-set to the user plant are suitable
to the supplied voltage and are in accordance to the appli-
cable rules;
• wire type, section and length have been calculated consi-
dering environment conditions and in force norms;
• ground is functioning correctly: earth fault relay device wor-
ks only if this connection is operating;
• that direction of the phases corresponds to the user plant
phase rotation, and none of the phases has been acciden-
tally connected to neutral.
