Before Getting Started
Please read this manual carefully before operating the machine. This manual guides how
to operate the air-cooled diesel engine correctly, as well as warnings. This manual should
be considered as the permanent part of the engine and should be for future reference.
This engine will meet your requirement if you operate it according to the manual
instruction.
Safety Instructions
Indicates that serious personal injury even death can result if
the instructions are not followed.
Indicates that serious personal injury even death can result if
the instructions are not followed.
Indicates that serious personal injury even death can result if
the instructions are not followed.
NOTE
Indicates that you must give special attention while operating the engine.
Otherwise the engine performance will be decreased or even a fault may
result. Be sure to follow the Note.
1. To prevent the fire, please pay attention t the following:
If gasoline is filled into the engine, fire may result. So identify the fuel
type and model before refilling.
Be sure to stop the engine before refilling.
Wipe off the oil which has overflowed or spilled.
Keep the engine far away from other flammable oils and goods.
2. Be careful when using the battery:
The battery will exhaust hydrogen while charging. Do charge the battery at a
well ventilated place. Meanwhile, flame and spark are not allowed while
charging.
The electrolyte is heavily acidic solution, be sure skin and eyes do not come in
contact with that. Rinse with water immediately if happens so.
3. The exhaust is poisonous, pay attention to the following:
The exhaust is harmful to health, do not run the engine at the
confined rooms or less ventilated places. If you have to run the
engine indoors, be sure there is good ventilation equipment.
4. Danger from moving parts:
Do not touch the moving parts while the engine is running,
meanwhile, when the engine is linked to the load, please cover the
coupler and belt etc. parts which have potential danger before
running.
5. Stay away from hot parts:

Assembly
NOTE: Too much shock during the running will damage the engine and the load, be
sure to set the engine tightly.
1. Fix the engine base seat tightly to prevent the engine from offset and shock.
2. Be sure the PTO shaft centers are in line.
If the pulley is too tight, accident may result. Please select the
suitable size pulley
3. If the pulley drives the engine, the pulley size must be in accordance with the load
speed. The diameter of the pulley can be calculated by the following format:
Load side pulley X load speed
Engine side pulley=
-----------------------------------------
Engine speed (rated speed)
4. Make sure that the bearing hole of the pulley, keyway size are in conformance with
the PTO shaft. Otherwise accidents may occur. Tighten the PTO shaft bolt properly.
Do select the appropriate diameter pulley, if the engine continually exhaust black
smoke during operation.
5. Be sure the pulley tension is correct. If the belt is too tight, it will be difficult to start,
furthermore the belt will worn quickly and the PTO shaft will be bent, so accidents
may result.
The torsion of the pulley: Press the central part of the pulley surface. Every 100mm
of the pulley, deflection is about 1.6mm (For example: the clearance of the pulley is
5oomm, the deflection will be 8mm).
Operation
The first 20hrs is the break-in period of the engine, the operator must obey the following:
1. Warm up the engine 5 minutes after the initial starting: Run the engine at low
speed and zero load before the engine becomes warm. Do not run the engine at
high speed.
2. Do not run the engine with overload: It is recommended to run the engine at
3000rpm with 50% load in break-in period.
3. Replace the engine oil on time:
Replace the engine oil while the engine
is warm after 20-hours of operation, after
draining the old engine oil completely.
Selection and Usage of the Fuel Oil:
Selection: Please use the light diesel most applicable for the performance of the engine
Diesel usage:

If diesel is mixed with water and dirt, then abnormal running will result. Seal the
diesel in clean drums and store the drums in a dry place away from rain and
dirt.
If diesel has been stored for several hours, the water and dirt will get deposited
at the bottom of the drum. You can pump the upper portion of the diesel for
usage.
Refueling the diesel:
If gasoline is filled into the engine, fire may result. So identify the fuel type and
model before refilling.
Be sure to stop the engine before refilling.
Wipe off the oil which has overflowed or spilled.
Keep the engine far away from other flammable oils and goods.
Water and foreign matter will be sunk into the lower portion of the barrel. Put
the suction pipe into the barrel at a place till half the depth of the barrel, pump
clean oil on the upper position in the barrel.

Selection and Usage of the Engine Oil
Selection of the Engine oil: It is very important to select the right oil. If you use improper
diesel, the piston rings will adhere together, the piston may burn out and thecylinder head
gasket will wear out quickly as well as bearings and other moving parts, reducing the
engine life.
The viscosity of the engine oil is depended on the ambient temperature:
Ambient temperature

10-200C
Below 100C
SAE 30
SAE 20
SAE 10W-30

Check and Refill the Engine Oil:
Note:
Check the engine oil level with the engine kept on a flat surface and the engine
stopped.
Check the engine oil level before tightening the filter cap.
a) Be sure to check the engine oil level before starting the engine.
Check whether the engine oil level is between the upper level and the lower
level.
Wipe off the spilled oil.
Screw on the oil filler cap after checking.
b) The engine oil level cannot go beyond the upper level.
Replace the Air Cleaner:
1. Screw off the wing nut and remove the
air cleaner cover. If the output power
of the engine is not sufficient, the
exhaust color will be abnormal, then it
is necessary to replace the element.
2. Reassemble the air cleaner cover and
screw on the wing nut after
replacement.
The Exhaust Direction:
To prevent the exhaust from flowing into
the air cleaner, assemble an exhaust
syphon on the case of the muffler.

Run the Engine
To prevent the exhaust toxicities, be sure to run the engine at ventilated
place.
To prevent personal injury, avoid hands, clothes or any other body parts
from involving into the output shaft, pulley and V pulley etc. moving parts.
Check the moving parts and the surrounding parts after stopping the
engine. Be sure that there is no tool or cloth inside the engine body.
The muffler is very hot during operation or immediately after operation.
So, never touch the muffler.
To prevent any injuries, avoid contact with the air cleaner as it will suck
the surrounding airflow during operation.
1. Warm up the engine for 5 minutes.
2. If the engine is very hot, set the governor lever to the expected position.
NOTE: Be sure to regulate the engine speed with the governor lever.
Do not screw off the adjusting bolt and the fuel adjusting bolts,
otherwise abnormal speed and output may result.
3. If the engine continually
exhaust black smoke during
operation, which indicates that
the engine is running with
overload, do adjust the engine
pulley and the load pulley
Please Pay Attention To The Following Items While Running:
Whether there is abnormal vibration and sound.
Whether the exhaust is normal.
Whether the engine continually exhausts white smoke or black smoke.
Be sure to shut off the engine when any abnormal phenomenon arouses,
contact the dealer immediately.

Stopping the Engine
1. Set the governor lever to low speed
position, then run the engine at no load for
5 minutes.
2. Set the governor lever to the “STOP”
position. Do not stop the engine with the
decompression lever.
3. Set the fuel cock to “OFF” position.
4. Pull the recoil starter handle slowly, until
you feel resistance. (At this point, the
decompression just begins and
intake/exhaust valves are both closed, thus
the cylinder can be prevented from rust.)
5. Concerning the electric starting engine,
directly turn the starting key to “CLOSE”
positon.
Prepare For The Next Operation:
1. Fill diesel in to the tank.
2. Check all the bolts and nuts. Screw on them if necessary.
3. Clean the dirt on the surface of the engine body.
