0. INTRODUCTION
Please read this manual carefully before using the generating set. If you act as
stated in this manual, your generating set will guarantee you a smooth
functioning for years.
First read the engine and alternator manual. These manuals are supplied with
each generating set and explain the use, the maintenance and the dangers in case
of improper use.
If you have any questions concerning your generating set please contact
EUROPOWER Generators through www.europowergenerators.com.
All data in this manual are based on the standard versions of
EP30DE/EP34TDE/EP44TDE with Kubota V3300/ V3800DIT engine.
Generating sets with options can have slightly different data. Contact your
dealer for more information.
1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and understand the owner’s manual before using the generator, opening
it or working on it. This can prevent personal injury or equipment damage.
When this manual is not 100% clear to you, please consult an authorised
dealer.
Place the generator on a levelled surface.
When the generator is tilted, fuel spillage may result.
Place the generator, when in use, at least 1m away from buildings or other
equipment.
Keep children and pets away from the generator when it is in operation.
Diesel is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
Refuel only in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is
refuelled or where diesel is stored.
Wipe up spilled fuel at once.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapour.
Use automotive diesel (diesel number 2 according to EN590) with a cetane
number of 40 or higher, and with a max. sulphur level of 0,5%.
It is allowed to use the generating set in the rain (according to EN60529-
protection class IP23). This means that the generating set can support
water in the form of rain till max. 60° in respect of the perpendicular
line. Do not use the generating set in the snow. Only use it in spaces
where there is no explosion hazard.
The generator is a potential source of electrical shocks when misused. Do
not operate the generator with wet hands.
Connections for standby power to a building’s electrical system must be
made by a qualified electrician and must comply with all applicable laws
and electrical codes.
Never connect the generating set to the public mains or any other
electrical power source! Improper connections can allow electrical current
from the generator to back feed into the utility lines. Such back feed may
electrocute utility company workers, and when utility power is restored,
the generator may explode, burn or cause fires in the building’s
electrical system.
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while
after stopping the engine.
Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is still hot.
Let the engine cool down before storing the generator indoors.
To prevent scalding, pay attention to the warning marks attached to the
generator.

Keep in mind the maximum weight a person is allowed to carry if you move
the generating set by hand.
Make sure the generator operates in a well-ventilated room. In case of
insufficient cooling and/or ventilation severe damage can occur. Exhaust
gases also contain poisonous carbon monoxide.
Never use the generator when the cover plates are removed from the engine
or alternator.
Do not wear loose clothes near the generator.
Let maintenance be carried out by trained technicians only. For example,
according to art. 233 of the Belgian AREI –General Regulation on
Electrical Installations - this means that maintenance can only be carried
out by “warned persons” (code BA4) or “authorised persons” (code BA5).
If local rules differ, the most rigid of both rules should be followed.
Never work on the generator while it is still running.
Never connect appliances that need more power than the generator can
provide. This could seriously damage the generator.
Be very careful while using a welder on any type of generator. Welders
might damage the alternator. Always consult a EUROPOWER specialist first
to make sure that the power of the generating set matches the requested
power of the welder.
If the appliance you want to connect is of an electronic kind (computer,
radio, TV, plastic welder, …), always consult a EUROPOWER specialist
first. Such appliances might not work or even break down in combination
with some alternators. Alternators with a low harmonic distortion are best
suited for connection of electronic appliances.
Never let a diesel engine run for a long time (= more than 30 min.) at no
load or at a very low load (<15%). This can damage the engine severely!
2. CE-MARK, NOISE LABEL AND PICTOGRAMS
2.1. CE-marking and noise label: these are examples of a EUROPOWER type
indication plate and a noise label. The type indication plate can be found on
every generator. The noise label only appears on generators that comply with the
European Standard 2000/14/EC. More information on this can be found in the
EUROPOWER documentation or on our web site www.europowergenerators.com.
2.2. Pictograms: some of these pictograms are typical for a certain option or
special type of generating set. Therefore not all pictograms necessarily appear
on the standard generating set.

work on the generating set before it has sufficiently cooled down.
(23)
-
Do not smoke nor allow sparks or flames near the generating set,
the fuel pipe, the fuel filter, the fuel pump or other possible sources
of spilled fuel or fuel vapours.
(24)
-
Fuel is highly flammable and explosive and you can be burnt or
seriously injured when refuelling. Turn the engine off and let it cool
down before refuelling.
(25)
-
The engine‘s exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide.
You can be killed or seriously hurt. Do not run the engine in a closed
environment. The exhaust system should be leak-tight and it should
be inspected regularly.
(26)
-
Rotating parts can cause serious and even deathly injuries. Do not
let the engine run unless all protection covers, shields and grids are
in place.
Make sure the incoming and outgoing air flow is not obstructed.
(27)
-
Only use a hoist according to local safety regulations.
Never allow sharp bends in lifting cables and chains.
It is strictly forbidden to dwell or stay in the risk zone under a lifted
load. Never lift the unit over people or residential areas. Never leave
a load hanging on a hoist. Lifting acceleration and retardation shall
be kept within safe limits.
To lift heavy parts, a hoist of ample capacity, tested and approved
according to local safety regulations, shall be used.
Lifting hooks, eyes, shackles, etc. shall never be bent and shall only
have stress in line with their design load axis.
The capacity of a lifting device diminishes when the lifting force is
applied at an angle to its load axis.
For maximum safety and efficiency of the lifting apparatus all lifting
members shall be applied as near to perpendicular as possible.
A hoist has to be installed in such a way that the object will be lifted
perpendicular.
If that is not possible, the necessary precautions must be taken to
prevent load-swinging, e.g. by using two hoists, each at
approximately the same angle not exceeding 30° from the vertical.

** See chapter 4 Description of the control panel
The main components of the generating set are: the water-cooled KUBOTA diesel
engine (1500rpm), the alternator, the control panel, the ECU (electronic control
unit –only on EP30DE / EP44TDE), integrated fuel tank and the chassis.
For engine and alternator specifications we refer to the engine and alternator
manual supplied with each generating set.
Specifications for the control panel can be found in chapter 4.
The Kubota V3800DIT engine (only on EP30DE / EP44TDE) has an electronic speed
regulation. The ECU will compare the engine speed coming from the speed sensor
to a reference speed that has been determined in advance (1500rpm). If necessary
it will activate the actuator by means of a pulsating signal. This way, the
engine speed remains stable at 1500 rpm.
The ECU also takes care of the starting procedure (automatic preheating time,
activation time of the starting motor, start interruption with running engine),
it has an emergency stop function (when the speed is too high, the oil pressure
is too low, the coolant temperature is too high and the charging current of the
battery is too low or when the battery is broken (= battery charging control))
and a failure diagnosis function (by means of signal lamps).
The chassis of the generator serves as fuel tank (content 76 litres) and
contains the fuel filler cap, the mechanic fuel level meter, the fuel drain cap
(for cleaning of fuel tank), 4 fixation holes (for fixed mounting of the
genset), the battery support and the fixing support for the (manual) oil drain
pump. In the bottom plate of the chassis there is an inspection hole for the oil
drain screw on the crank case cover.
4. DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROL PANEL
The control panel consists of:
DSE4420 control module (1)

When the fuel tank level is under the
minimum level for more than 5 sec., the
DSE4420 module will shut down the generator
automatically. The error code as shown on
the left will appear together with a red
exclamation mark. You need to refuel before
starting again. In case you start without
refueling, the generator will automatically
stop after 7 seconds.
Low coolant level switch.
Picture 6.
When the level of the cooling liquid goes
below the minimum level for more than 5
seconds, the DSE4420 module will turn off
the engine. The error code as shown on the
left will appear together with a red
exclamation mark. You need to refill the
cooling liquid before starting again. In
case you start without refueling, the
generator will automatically stop after 7
seconds.
-You have to differentiate between warnings and critical alarms.
oWarnings: will not affect the operation of the generating set. They
serve to draw the operator’s attention to an undesirable condition.
Warnings will not stop the engine.
The following warning can occur:
Engine alternator charge failure
You can eliminate the warning by switching the OFF-ON button to the
OFF position, and by switching it back to the ON position after a
few seconds.
oCritical alarms: will stop the engine and will draw the operators
attention to an undesirable condition. These critical alarms have to
be examined and have to be solved. Afterwards the DSE3110 module has
to be reset.
The following critical warnings can occur:
Low oil pressure
High engine temperature
Generator under voltage
Generator over voltage
Generator under frequency
Generator over frequency
Emergency stop
Low fuel level
You can eliminate the critical warning by switching the OFF-ON
button to the OFF position, and by switching it back to the ON
position after a few seconds.
-When you start the generator through the green button "I" or through an
external contact (remote), the DSE4420 module will start its program. The
DSE4420 module will first check whether there are critical alarms or not.
During this process you can see the following moving icon:

-The DSE4420 module executes a maximum of 9 starting attempts.
-When there are no alarms after starting the generator, the display will
show the icon of a moving engine underneath:
4.2. Thermal magnetic protections:
Each socket is protected separately. See electrical scheme.
on the type indication plate of the generator you can find more
information about the power/maximum admissible charging current of the
generator.
in case of overload, the thermal-magnetic protection in the control panel
shall be switched off after a short period of time. Check the load, reduce
it if necessary and switch on the thermal-magnetic protection again.
in case of short-circuit, the thermal-magnetic protection will switch off
immediately! Check what caused the short-circuit and switch on the protection
again afterwards.
4.3. Earth leakage protection:
The earth leakage protection cuts a circuit automatically in case there is a
leakage between phase and earth during a preset time.
The earth leakage protection protects people (users) against electric shocks
when they are in direct contact. For more explanation in relation to the earth
leakage breaker and settings we refer to chapter 5.8. Safety for the users.
4.4. Connector remote control:
This standard 4 pole connector (on picture 1) can be used to start the generator
from a distance. Turn the screw cap loose and connect the male connector
(supplied loose) to the female connector.
5. USE OF THE GENERATING SET
CAUTION! The generating sets EP30DE/34TDE/44TDE are equipped with a 12V
electric fuel pump. This pump may not “run dry”. If the engine stops because of
fuel deficiency, turn the contact key to position “OFF” as fast as possible.
5.1 Before starting:
-Check the oil level.
-Check the fuel level.
-Check the coolant level in the expansion tank.
-Make sure the emergency stop is unlocked.
-Make sure the charge is disconnected.
-Make sure the fuel cock is open. You can find this fuel cock on the water
separator.

connected.
oPut the 3-position key switch in position "REMOTE AUTO START".
oThe control module DSE4420 will start the engine automatically
(maximum 9 starting trials).
oLet the engine warm up for a couple of minutes before charging the
generating set.
oConnect the charges.
5.3. Charging the generating set:
-Let the engine run for 5 minutes to warm up before charging.
-On the type label of the generating set you can find the current data/
admitted power charge of the generating set.
-In case of overload, the thermal-magnetic protection, mounted in the
control panel, shall switch off after a short time. Check and reduce the
charges if necessary. Switch on the protection afterwards.
-In case of short-circuit, the thermal-magnetic protection shall switch off
immediately! Try to find out the cause of the short-circuit. Switch on the
protection afterwards.
-Never let the diesel engine run for a long time (= more than 30 min.) at
no load or at a very low load (<15%). This can damage the engine severely.
-Check the voltages, frequency and currents regularly.
5.4. Stopping the generating set:
-Disconnect the charge.
-Before stopping the generating set, let the engine run for a few minutes
at no load to cool down.
-Stopping on the generator itself:
oStop the generating set by pressing the red button “0” on the
DSE4420 control module once.
oPut the key switch with three positions in position “0” when the
generating set has stopped.
-Stopping via an external contact (at distance):

5.5. Cooling:
-Make sure the aspiration of cooling air by the engine and alternator is
not obstructed.
-Make sure the warm engine and alternator cooling air and the exhaust gases
can be adrifted freely.
-Make sure the generator operates in a well-ventilated room!
5.6. Protections:
-Engine: low oil level protection, cooling water temperature protection,
overspeed, low battery charging current and starting protection.
-Alternator: thermal-magnetic protection and earth leakage protection.
5.7. Maintenance (see also chapter 10):
All maintenance points (air filter, oil drain, oil fill cap, oil filter,
fuel filters/water separator, radiator filler cap, expansion tank) are very
good accessible. For normal maintenance activities, check the engine
manual. In case of engine or alternator defect, consult your EUROPOWER
dealer.
5.8. Safety for the users:
The standard version of the generating set is delivered with earth leakage
protection and thermal-magnetic protection and is connected following the
IU electrical scheme.
This means that for connection of charges class 1 (charges with earth) and
for charges class 2 (charges with double insulation, to be recognized by
the “double square” pictogram on the machine) there is no limitation in the
quantity of charges connected at the same time on the generating set.
Contact your distributor for details on the above subject.
Still you have to respect the minimum square (mm²) and maximum length of
the cables you are using (switching off of the thermal-magnetic protection
in case of short-circuit).
The working of the earth leakage protection can only be guaranteed if the
added earth pin with 4 metres of earthing cable is connected to the
generating set (see symbol ‘earthing’ on the generating set). The earth pin
has to be drawn into the soil completely to guarantee a good functioning.
The spreading resistance of the earth electrode has to be measured by a
recognized organism.

8. ELECTRICAL SCHEMES
See the EUROPOWER electrical schemes and the alternator manual enclosed.
9. BUILDING-IN DIMENSIONS
See enclosed drawing
10. MAINTENANCE
10.1. Alternator:
The alternators are maintenance-free. A periodic check of the alternator is not
necessary. A regular visual control of the different alternator parts –and
especially of the rotor bearing - at every engine maintenance is enough.
10.2. Engine:
See engine manual for maintenance intervals.
- In the factory, the engine has been filled with coolant for usage up to -30°C.
The specification of this coolant is BS6580/92 –SAE J1034.
Only use coolant with this specification!
- In the factory, the engine has been filled with 15W40 oil (for temperatures up
to -10°C).The minimum specification of this oil has to be API SJ/CF-4.
- If the ambient temperature is lower, 10W40 oil (up to -20°C) or 5W40 oil
(up to -30°C) should be used. Here the minimum specification also has to be
API SJ/CF-4.
11. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting or during temporary storage, the
generator should be secured upright in its normal operating position, with the
engine switch in position “OFF”.
When transporting the generators:
Close the fuel cock (if there is any)
Do not overfill the tank (there may not be any fuel in the filler neck).
Do not use the generator while it is placed in a vehicle.
Take the generator off the vehicle and use it in a well-ventilated place.
Before storing the unit for an extended period ( > 2 months):
Make sure the storage area is free of excessive humidity and dust.
