Control Switch Panel (Standard)
Control Switch: This switch is used to start and
stop the genset and prime fuel.
Push and Hold START to preheat, crank and
start the genset. The green lamp comes on
when the genset is running. (Preheat is the pe-
riod of time prior to engine cranking when the
glow plugs preheat the combustion chambers.
The time is automatically varied by the genset
controller on the basis of engine temperature.)
Push and Release STOP (Prime) to stop the
genset.
Push and Hold STOP (Prime) to prime the fuel
system (amber lamp comes on in 2 seconds to
indicate priming).
Status Lamps: The control switch has two status
lamps. The amber status lamp comes on during
priming, blinks rapidly during cranking and goes out
when the engine is up to speed. If the genset shuts
down abnormally, this lamp will slowly blink a nu-
merical code to indicate the cause of shutdown. See
Troubleshooting (Section 9). The green status lamp
comes on to indicate that the genset is running.
Emergency Stop Switch: In an emergency push
the switch to OFF. Push it to ON after all necessary
repairs to the genset and connected equipment
have been made.
DC Circuit Breaker: This circuit breaker protects
the DC control circuits of the genset from short cir-
cuits. Reset after all necessary repairs have been
made to the genset.
Hour Meter: The hour meter records genset operat-
ing time in hours. It cannot be reset.
e-Series Digital Display Panel (Optional)
The control panel may have an e-Series Digital Dis-
play instead of a control switch. See Page 2-3 for
details.
