5.0 MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
IMPORTANT
Use only genuine spare parts. The generator may get
damaged if other than genuine parts having a different
quality standard are used.
To make sure that the generator keeps working to maximum
efficiency, it is essential that it is properly and regularly
maintained. Additionally, a proper maintenance grants the
generator a longer lifetime.
DANGER
Before carrying out any check or maintenance operation on
the genset, rotate safety switch (pos. 7 fig. 6 and 14) to "0"
position to prevent any accidental startings of the unit.
5.1 NATURE AND FREQUENCY OF CHECKS
5.2 MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS WHICH
DO NOT REQUIRE QUALIFIED
TECHNICIANS
To carry out these operations, the generator door first
needs to be opened. Therefore, the following measures
should be taken:
1) The generator must be stopped with all parts cold.
2) Let the unit cool.
3) Set the safety switch to the “0” position.
N.B.Remember to set it to the “I” position again after check!
OIL LEVEL CHECK
1) Remove the oil filling cap (pos. 9 fig. 8) and clean the
dipstick.
2) Reintroduce the dipstick by screwing it in fully.
3) Remove the dipstick and check that the oil level is
between min. and max. levels.
If not, top up with the recommended oil.
4) Refit the cap.
IMPORTANT
All checks should be carried out with the genset horizontal.
5.3 MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS WHICH
REQUIRE QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS
For some maintenance operations you need to slide the unit
out on its runners (pos. 28 fig. 7 and 15) after first loosening
