Baldor STANDBY PERMANENT MOUNT SERIES Operator's Manual - Operation - Starting
OPERATION - PRE-START PROCEDURE
1. Fill system fuel tank with clean, fresh diesel fuel.
Wipe up any and all fuel spillage
2. Fill Engine crankcase to full mark with clean, fresh lubricating oil per attached
engine operating guide.
3. Radiator Coolant should be checked at the beginning of each day and filled in
compliance with the engine manufacturer's guidelines.
4. Secure the generator for operation.
Skid mounted - the power generating system should be mounted to a smooth, hard surface
suitable for supporting the system under all stress conditions.
Adequate clearance must be provided for access doors to fully open.
OPERATION - STARTING
1. Conduct ‘Pre-start Procedures.
2. Switch the generator set to the applicable voltage setting.
3. Connect the load(s) to the circuit breaker.
WARNING: High voltage is present when the generator set is running.
4. Move the ‘Master Control Switch” to the appropriate position.
5. Adjust the voltage if necessary by turning the voltage adjustment knob located on the control panel.
