Keep this manual with the equipment. If the equipment is traded or sold, give the manual to the new owner. You are now the owner of a Armstrong Power generator powered by CUMMINS engine. All our components keep the highest standards in quality, efficiency and durability. Each unit pass thru a complete test and inspection to guarantee the quality of your unit. We provide warranty on every component subject to the warranty coverage and limitations. To get the best results from your new generator p

CHECKS DURING OPERATION While running, make the following checks to see that all parts are working correctly. Radiator Cooling water (Coolant) To avoid personal injury: • Do not remove radiator cap until coolant temperature is well below its boiling point. Then loosen cap slightly to the stop position, to relieve any pressure, before removing cap completely. When the engi

The following should occur: Page 19 • After about six seconds, the switch should transfer loads back to the utility power source. • About one minute after retransfer, the engine should shut down. Check the installation and application data charts for any additional information.

Most systems, unless they contain automated switch gear, have a means of disconnect between the generator and the load. This is typically a transfer switch or disconnect. Ensure the contacts on the switch are rated for the size of your system. 4.1. GENERAL ELECTRICAL SYSTEM When mounting electrical panels, a 3 foot clearance is required and the use of an emergency light to illuminate the unit during operation is typically required. Power for the emergency light should be from both the primary ut

To start the set, press the button. Preheating will begin, indicated by the LED. NOTE:-There is no Start Delay in this mode of operation. Starting will commence as soon as the start button is pressed. The Fuel Solenoid is energised, then the Starter Motor is engaged. The engine is cranked for a 10-second period. If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the starter motor is disengaged for a 10-second period. Should this sequence continue beyond the 3 starting attempts, the st

These starting aids will reduce the efficient working life of the engine. 5. MECHANICAL 6. CHEMICAL Fuels, oils coolants, lubricants and battery electrolyte used in this generating set are typical of the industry. However they can be hazardous to personnel if not treated properly. • Do not swallow or have skin contact with fuel, oil, coolant, lubricants and battery electrolyte. If swallowed, seek medical treatment immediately. Do not induce vomiting if fuel is swallowed. For skin contact, wash w

. Be sure all power is disconnected from the electrical equipment being serviced. . Keep all electrical equipment clean and dry. Replace any wiring where the insulation is cracked, cut, abraded or oth- erwise degraded. Replace terminals that are worm, discolored or corrode. Keep terminals clean and tight. . Insulate all connections and disconnected wires. . Use only class BC or Class ABC extinguishers on electrical fires. Page 9 9. FIRST AID FOR ELECTRIC SHOCK Identification / look out for: . Un

. Exhaust piping must not terminate under loading plat- forms, structures, or near any opening in a building. . Where necessary, exhaust piping must be guarded and/or insulated to prevent burns. . Provide a clearance of at least 9 inches (229mm)(10 inches (250mm) recommended) between exhaust piping and any combustible material. . Keep exhaust piping well clear of fuel tanks, fuel lines, etc. 5.3. RAIN CAP A rain cap is recommended on the end of the exhaust pipe. The rain cap is attached to the e

. Never use metallic objects on the neck or hands when handling the set. . Never connect the negative terminal from the battery to the positive terminal from the starter. . Don‘t smoke or allow sparks, flames or other sources of ignition around the fuel or bat- teries. . Use adequate equipment to take fuel from the set. . Never test the battery by touching together the terminals. . Ensure the generating set room is properly ventilated. . Don‘t touch the battery charger or the connections during
