An
optional
remote
instrument
panel
is
available
which
includes
start ing
con troIs.
This
panel
also
includes
a
water
temper ature
gauge,
oil pressure gauge,
battery
voltmeter,
operating
hourmeter,
start-stop control switches, and senders to be installed on the engine
for water temperature and oil pressure.
Circuit Description
The
two-pole

during starting.
toggle switch.
switch
bypasses
the
protective
shutdown
switches
The second pole provides a source of B+ to the START
While continuing
to hold the ON switch to provide B+
to the START
switch
and
to
bypass
the
protective
shutdown
switches,
the
START
swi tch
is oper ated to cause
the
starter
to crank
the
eng ine.
If
starting
at
the
generator
set,
release
the
START
switch
when
the
generator is running.
If starting at a remote location, release the
START switch when the green LED brightens.
Continue depressing
the
ON
switch.
It
is only necessary
to con-
tinue holding the ON switch after releasing the START switch until oil
pressure is sufficient to close the oil pressure safety switch, pro-
viding the normal B+ path to the ignition system.
Note that it is
imposs ible to energ ize
the
starter wh ile the gener ator
is running,
unless ON switch is depressed.
This protects the starter motor gears.
While operating, the overspeed shutdown module monitors engine speed
and
wi 11 g round
the
ignition
system
if
it
sense s
eng ine speed at
approximately 2175 rpm.
Should
the
generator
shut
down
from
an
overspeed
condition,
the
overspeed circuit
~
be reset in order
to restart the generator.
This is done by simply depressing the STOP switch momentarily and then
proceeding
with
the
normal
starting
procedure.
If
the
overspeed
switch itself is faulty and resetting will not correct it, lift the
T-l coil connection and check for spark at plugs.
WARNING
It is very important that the overspeed shutdown always be
installed and functioning.
Any tampering with the overspeed
shutdown module which would cause it to malfunction, could
be a cause of injury should the generator belt-driven gover-
nor fail and cause the generator to run away.
To
stop
the
generator,
depress
the
STOP
switch
which
opens
the
normally-closed B+ path to the ON and START switches.
The STOP switch
must be depressed (opened) until the generator comes to a stop. Remote start
panels may be connected to the generator set as illustrated in the
remote start/stop panel schematic.
A jumper wire must be removed from
the eng ine con trol panel when either of the opt ional panels is
in-
installed.
Refer to the engine DC wiring schematic.
