2.3 Intended use
The Diesel engines produced by Kohler Co. are partly completed machinery according to Machi‐
nery Directive 2006/42/EC Article 2 g (only for European Union).
The Kohler Co. products described in these instructions are intended for use according to the
followings:
– The engines are intended to supply power to equipment (electric generator) and to equip‐
ment auxiliaries as specified by customer.
– The engines are intended for installation in machineries.
– Engines that are used in conjunction with alternators as emergency power generator must
be firmly connected to the ground of the operation site. Appropriate mounting must be used
to reduce the generated vibrations. This mounting must be released by Kohler Co.
– The engines may only be operated in faultless condition.
– The engines may be operated in closed rooms only with adequate ventilation. If additional
fresh air is needed, open the doors and windows.
– The conditions prescribed by the manufacturer of the machinery in which the engine has
been installed are also part of intended use.
– The engines must only be installed by personnel who have been trained and familiarized
herewith and are aware of the dangers.
– Unauthorized changes on the engines or their components void the liability of Kohler Co. for
any resulting property damage or personal injury.
– Interference with the injection and control system may influence the power and exhaust gas
parameters of the engines, meaning that compliance with statutory environmental require‐
ments is no longer assured.
