15OPERATING THE GENERATOR
6. Turn the key to "GLOW" position.
A See "COLD WEATHER STARTING" section as to the
preheating times.
7. Turn the key to the "START" position
and release when the engine starts.
A Do not run the starter motor continuously for more
than 10 seconds at a time, or it may damage the
starter. If the engine fails to start, wait for about 30
seconds and try again. When the engine starts to
generate electric power, the green lamp will light up.
8. Check to see that the battery charge
lamp, oil pressure lamp and door open
lamp are "OFF".
9. Check the warning lamps.
Whenever the engine stops automatically during
operation, correct the problem before restarting the
engine.
A Be sure to warm up the engine, not only in winter, but
also in warmer seasons. An insufficiently warmed-up
engine can shorten its service life.
BWarm-up in Cold Ambient Temperatures
In cold weather, the engine oil may be cold with increased
viscosity. This can delay oil circulation or abnormally low
oil pressure for some time after engine start-up. This can
result trouble in the lubrication circuit or damage to the
engine moving parts.
To prevent the above problems, perform the following
instructions:
Warm up the engine at rated revolution with no load.
A Voltage regulation can be achieved by turning the
voltage adjuster in clockwise or counterclockwise
direction.
A Set voltage to the same as the devices being used.
