    The standard reference condition for total barometric pressure is 1 bar. This corresponds to an altitude of approximately 100m. Above 100m the rated power must be reduced. Flammable Environment Stephill generators must not be used in a flammable environment. Saline Environment Operation of the machine in a saline environment will require additional corrosion protection.

  • Page 14: Check Fuel Level

    SG6000D - SSG6000D - SG6000D/3PH - SSG6000D/3PH Check Fuel Level Ensure there is enough fuel in the fuel tank. All the generator models in this handbook have a "Low Fuel Level" switch. When you turn the key switch to the first position "RUN" and the red "Low Fuel Level" LED is illuminated, this would indicate that there not enough fuel in the fuel tank and the generator will not be able to be started.

    SG6000D - SSG6000D - SG6000D/3PH - SSG6000D/3PH • If continuity is present, start and run the generator/engine and measure the AC voltage between the green/white wires. This should be around 38V AC if the engine is running at the correct no-load speed (52.5Hz).
  • Page 26: Fuel System Bleeding Procedure

    SG6000D - SSG6000D - SG6000D/3PH - SSG6000D/3PH Charge Regulator Wiring • Remove white wires No.26 & 27 from the charge regulator and again start and run the generator/engine and measure the AC voltage at these wires, not at the regulator. You should have the same reading as the last test, around 38V AC.
