Initial Start-Up (No Load) - Briggs & Stratton 40689 Manual De Instalación Y Operación

Initial Start-Up (No Load)

WARNING
Exhaust heat/gases could ignite combustibles causing a fire, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Remove all combustible materials from in and around the generator compartment.
The unit has been set-up for NG operation at the factory. Fuel conversion, if needed, must be completed prior to performing
these steps. See Fuel Conversion.
Before operating the standby generator or placing it into service, inspect the entire installation carefully. Then, begin testing the
system without electrical loads connected, as shown in the steps that follow:
NOTICE: When the generator is started for the very first time, it will require that any air in the gaseous fuel lines be purged.
This can cause the engine to run roughly for a few minute.
1. Remove the two screws (A, Figure 19) that secure the circuit breaker cover to expose unit's circuit breaker.
2. Connect an accurate multi-meter to line side of the generator's main circuit breaker.
3. Set the generator's main circuit breaker to the ON (closed) position.
4. Install the 15 Amp fuse.
5. Push the ON/OFF switch, located on the side of the generator, to the ON (I) position.
6. Push the START/SELECT button on the control board. The engine will start in Low Idle Mode (LIM). Push again to bring
the engine to full speed.
NOTICE: When the generator is started for the very first time, it will require that any air in the gaseous fuel lines be purged.
This can cause the engine to run roughly for a few minutes
7. Listen for unusual noises, vibration or other indications of abnormal operation. Look for oil leaks while the engine runs.
8. Let the engine warm up for approximately 5 minutes to allow internal temperatures to stabilize.
9. Check the generator output at load side of circuit breaker. The voltage must be 225 - 250 Volts and the frequency must be
59 ‑ 61 Hz.
10. Check the generator output between one generator connection lug and the neutral lug, then between the other generator
connection lug and the neutral lug. In both cases, voltage reading must be between 112 and 125 Volts.
11. Push the STOP/CONFIG button on the control board. The engine will enter cool-down mode for approximately 5 minutes.
Push again to stop the engine.
12. Install the circuit breaker cover.
