36 3-2 Connecting the load Precautions in connecting the load 〇 The switchgear, switching equipment, load and generator in the plant must be connected in compliance with local codes of low voltage power installation (1000 or less). 〇 Before starting or before connecting a new load, make sure that the generator is earthed. Use the earthing rod or, if effective, use an existing earthing installation. Any protective devices against electric shock and leakage would be useless if earthing is poor. 〇 Avoid overloading the generator. The generator is provided with circuit breakers for overload protection when a breaker has tripped, reduce the concerned load before restarting. 〇 Never connect the generator output voltage to an installation which is also connected to a commercial power supply. 〇 Before connecting a load, turn off the corresponding circuit breaker, and check whether frequency, voltage and power factor comply with the ratings of the generator. 〇 Distribution board (Only DCA-35ESEK) If the outlets provided on the machine are insufficient, provide an auxiliary switchgear and connect it with the output terminals. The distribution board must comply with the local rule of power installation. 〇 Be sure to provide a load ON/OFF switch between the power outlets and load. Do not use the generator circuit breaker to turn on/off the load. 〇 Before connecting the load, stop the engine and turn off the generator circuit breaker. 〇 The load connecting cable must not get in contact with other output terminals on the terminal board

37 3-2-2 Non-linear and sensitive loads Non-linear loads draw currents with high contents in harmonics causing distortion in the wave form of the voltage generated by the synchronous generator. In general, non-linear type loads generate a high frequency current which adversely affects the performance of inverters used to feed power voltage to variable speed motors or loads such as thyristor/rectifier controlled UPS. Loads most sensitive to voltage distortion include incandescent lamps, discharge lamps, computers, X-ray equipment, audio amplifiers and elevators. Consult your sales distributors for measures against the adverse influence of non-linear and sensitive loads Quality, minimum section and maximum length of cables 〇 〇 The cable connected to the output terminals of the generator must be selected in accordance with local regulations. The type of cable must be determined by its rated voltage and current, current carrying capacity, installation conditions, stress and ambient temperature. For flexible wiring, rubber-sheathed, flexible core conductors of the type H07 RN-F (Cenelec HD. 22) or better must be used. As an example, the following table indicates the maximum allowable 3-phase currents in an ambient of 40 for cable types and wire sections as listed in accordance with VDE Local regulations remain applicable if they are stricter than those proposed below. Max. allowable 3-phase current (in A) for PVC insulated conductors, multiple or single core; H07 RN-F multiple core Wire size mm Allowable current (A) Multiple core Single core H07RN-F These values determine the lowest acceptable wire section (in mm2 ) of multiple core cable or H07 RN-F and the corresponding maximum length (in m) of cables for a voltage drop of e 5%, at rated current and at a power factor of

41 3-3 Before starting The generators are factory-adjusted to operate at 50 Hz, i.e r/min Checkup before start-up 1. Checking the oil level 〇 Check the engine oil level or contamination by the dipstick. The oil level must be near to, but not exceed, the high mark on the dipstick. If required, refill or change the oil. 〇 〇 If necessary, pour oil up to the specified level through the oil refilling port provided on the engine. For oil change, loosen the oil drain plug from the generator base to drain and, thereafter, pour oil the same as refilling. Dispose of the discharged oil in compliance with the local regulations. 〇 After supplying oil, run for several minutes, then stop the engine and make sure that the oil level is between the high and low marks. 〇 For the oil volume, see the lubricant volume in the specification table. 2. Checking the cooling water in engine radiator 〇 Check that the water level is near the Full mark on the auxiliary tank. Refill if short. 〇 Use soft water as engine cooling water. Use anti-freeze solution where the atmospheric temperature is low. Mixing volume of anti-freeze solution = total cooling water volume mixing antifreeze solution concentration. For the total cooling water volume, see the engine specification table. For anti-freeze solution concentration at the temperature, see Fuel coolant and lubricants. 〇 For making up water, remove the radiator cap. Thereafter, securely install the cap so as to be airtight

42 3. Checking the fan belt tension 〇 Check the fan belt tension and elongation. By a thumb, depress (approx. 6kg) the middle point of the belt. The deflection must be mm. At the same time, check whether the belt is scratched or not. If abnormal, adjust or replace it. For belt checkup, adjustment and replacement. 4. Checking the fuel 〇 Check the fuel level. Refill if required. 〇 If the fuel remainder is small, dew might be formed in the tank and mix with the fuel. To avoid such inconvenience, it is recommended to refill the tank fully after the day s work. 〇 Loosen the drain plug from the fuel tank to drain water and sediment from the tank. Dispose of the sediments, etc. in compliance with the local codes. 5. Checking the battery 〇 Check whether the electrolyte level is within the specified range or not. If short, add distilled water. 〇 If plates are exposed to air for a long time, the battery life would shorten. Keep them dipped. 〇 Do not pour battery electrolyte beyond the UPPER LEVEL. 〇 After refilling, securely tighten the caps. 〇 Give attention to the connection of battery plus (+) and minus (-) terminals. Reverse wiring of the terminals will cause damage to generator instruments. 6. Checking the wiring 〇 Check whether the wiring is securely tightened or rubbed. If abnormal, repair or replace. 7. Checking the piping 〇 Check whether the piping is securely tightened or leaky. Make sure that the hoses are not worn. If abnormal, repair or replace

43 8. Checking the bolts and nuts 〇 Check whether bolts and nuts are securely tightened or not especially for the air cleaner, muffler mounting section. If loose, retighten them Instruction for Fuel Source Changeover Device (Three-Way valve) (1) Setting Procedure for Separate Tank 1 When the machine is shipped from factory, the three way valve is sets as shown in the Fig.9. In the case that fuel source is the mounted fuel tank, run the machine without changing the setting of the piping and valve lever. 2 Where fuel source is a separate tank placed outside the machine, disconnect the tank connection plug and change the connection as shown in the Fig.10. And also switch the lever of three-way valve to the direction of the arrow mark, and close the air bleeding valve as shown in the Fig.11. Caution : Be sure close the air bleeding valve.(excluded DCA-35ESEK) 3 Where the separate tank is not used and disconnected, be sure to open the air bleeding valve again, reconnect the tank connection plug.

Fuel Type High Sulfur Fuel [0.05 % (500 ppm) Sulfur Content < 0.50 % (5000 ppm)] Low Sulfur Fuel [Sulfur Content < 0.05 % (500 ppm)] or Ultra Low Sulfur Fuel [Sulfur Content < % (15 ppm)] Engine oil classification (API classification) CF (If the CF-4, CG-4, CH-4, or CI-4 engine oil is used with a high-sulfur fuel, change the engine oil at shorter intervals. (approximately half)) CF, CF-4, CG-4, CH-4 or CI-4 CJ4 classification oil is intended for use in engines equipped with DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) and is Not Required for use in E3 specification engines. Oil used in the engine should have API classification and Proper SAE Engine Oil Viscosity according to the ambient temperatures where the engine is operated

50 With strict emission control regulations now in effect, the CF-4 and CG-4 engine oils have been developed for use with low sulfur fuels, for On-Highway vehicle engines. When a Non-Road engine runs on high sulfur fuel, it is advisable to use a CF or better classification engine oil with a high Total Base Number (a minimum TBN of 10 is required). When starting the engine in an atmospheric temperature of lower than 0, be sure to use engine oil of SAE10W, SAE10W-30 and SAE15W-40, even though an atmospheric temperature goes up to 10 more or less in the day time. Fuel : Cetane Rating : The minimum required Fuel Cetane Rating is 45. A cetane rating greater than 50 is preferred, especially for ambient temperatures below -20 (-4 F )or elevations above 1500 m (5000 ft). Diesel Fuel Specification Type and Sulfur Content % (ppm) used, must be compliant with all applicable emission regulations for the area in which the engine is operated. Use of diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 0.10 % (1000 ppm) is strongly required. DO NOT USE Fuels that have sulfur content greater than 0.5 % (5000 ppm). Diesel fuels specified to EN 590 or ASTM D975 are required. 1) SAE : Society of Automotive Engineers 2) EN : European Norm 3) ASTM : American Society of Testing and Materials 4) US EPA : United States Environmental Protection Agency 5) No.1-D or No.2-D, S500 : Low Sulfur Diesel (LSD) less than 500 ppm or 0.05 wt.% No.1-D or No.2-D, S15 : Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) 15 ppm or wt.% Cooling water : Use the mixture of the good quality soft water like city water and the Long Life Coolant(LLC) of anti-freeze and anti-rust for the aluminum radiator.

The following percentages are recommended for each ambient temperature; 30%: %: %: -30 In case of replenishment, use LLC of the same brand and the same density. Normally LLC should be replaced every 2 year

51 5. Periodic checkup and maintenance 5-1 Safety precautions for periodic checkup and maintenance WARNING Before checking or maintaining the machine, stop the engine, wait for it to cool down and remove all loads from the machine. Make sure that the machine would not accidentally start. Otherwise, you might be dead or injured by electric shock, burn, catching of hand or clothing, etc. Do not carry out work which will produce heat near fuel, oil, anti-freeze solution or combustible substances. If such is absolutely required (steam washing, for example), keep away combustible substances. Keep a fire-extinguisher in the vicinity. Take safety precautions against fire. Fuel, oil and anti-freeze solution are combustible. Handle them with care. When handling them, do not smoke or do not get naked flame near them. Keep a fire-extinguisher in the vicinity. CAUTION Do not use combustible solvents or carbon tetrachloride for cleaning the machine or parts. Take safety precautions against toxic fumes of cleansing agent. When checking or maintaining, protect the air filter, electrical parts, meters, etc. from moisture or humidity. Pay attention so that moisture humidity will not penetrate any part. When checking or maintaining, cover the replacing parts and generator openings with clean cloth, paper, tape, etc. so that the parts and generator interior will not he contaminated or moistened. Particularly, the air cleaner, electrical parts and terminals shall not be splashed with water. Before removing the radiator cap, stop the engine and wait for at least 10 minutes for it to cool down. If done while, or immediately after the end of, running, you might get burnt or injured

52 When servicing batteries, always wear protection clothing and glasses. The electrolyte is a sulphuric acid which can cause severe burns. Get it away from eye, skin and clothing. When charging batteries, an explosive gas forms above the cells and escapes through the vents. Do not smoke near batteries being, or just after having been charged. Never make or break live circuits or battery terminals, because a spark usually occurs. Do not leave tools, parts, rags etc. in or on the machine.
