radiator cleaning
The radiator (Figure 54) should be sprayed (cleaned) with
a high pressure washer when excessive amounts of dirt
and debris have accumulated on the cooling fins or tube.
When using a high pressure washer, stand at least 5 feet
(1.5 meters) away from the radiator to prevent damage to
the fins and tube.
Figure 54. Radiator Cleaning
GENERATOR STORAGE
For long term storage of the generator the following is
recommended:
Drain the fuel tank completely. Treat with a fuel stabilizer
if necessary.
Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill if
necessary with fresh oil.
Clean the entire generator, internal and external.
Cover the generating set and store in a clean, dry place.
Disconnect the battery.
Make sure engine coolant is at proper level.
If generator is mounted on a trailer, jack trailer up and
place on blocks so tires do not touch the ground or block
and completely remove the tires.
Warning
Allow engine to
cool
when flushing out
radiator. Flushing the radiator while hot
could cause serious burns from water or
steam.
jacket Water heater and internal BatterY
charger 120 vac input receptacles
(optional)
This generator can be optionally equipped with two 120
VAC, 20 amp input receptacles located on the output
terminal panel.
The purpose of these receptacles is to provide power via
commercial power to the
jacket water heater
and
internal
battery charger.
These receptacles will
onlY
function when commercial
power has been supplied to them (Figure 55). To apply
commercial power to these receptacles, a power cord of
adequate size will be required (See Table 6).
When using the generator in
hot
climates there is no
reason to apply power to jacket water heater. However, if the
generator will be used in
cold
climates it is always a good
idea to apply power to the jacket water heater at all times.
To apply power to the jacket water heater simply apply
power to the jacket water heater receptacle via commercial
power using an power cord of adequate size.
Figure 55. Battery Charger and Jacket Water
Heater Power Connections
If the generator will be used daily, the battery should
normally not require charging. If the generator will be idle
(not used) for long periods of time, apply power to the
battery charger receptacle via commercial power using a
power cord of adequate size.
