4. PREPARATION FOR STARTING
4.1 Installation of exhaust pipe
In case the genset must e run indoors, the engine exhaust gas must e drained to outdoor with
proper exhaust pipe.
(1) Do remove the cover on the exhuast side with spanner.
(2) Insert the exhuast pipe to the exhuast port.
(3) Enwind the silver paper or other thermal insulation material in the connection.
(4) Tighten the pipes with clamps.
(5) Tighten the cover to the genset.
WARNING
•Though the exhaust pipe is protected with thermal insulation material, do not touch it while the genset is running
to avoid scalding.
Ver. 3/Rev. 2; Data: 8.08.2022 38

NOTICE
In case exhaust pipe is soft type, it must e arranged in a straight line as far as possi le. The sharp turn arrangement is
for idden, otherwise, it will cause large exhaust ack pressure and impact genset running. Drill the hole in the wall per
exhaust pipe diameter and then tighten the pipe with olts. It’s etter to install a shell upon the exhaust pipe to prevent
the sand or snow from entering the pipe. It’s also suggested to install a water proof cover at the end of exhaust pipe
outdoor. The water proof is closed while the genset is not running and it will open when the genset is running.
WARNING
•Do check and clean the exhaust pipe efore starting. If the sand or other things locked the exhaust, the
exhaust cannot e drained out, accordingly the genset won’t run smoothly.
4.2 Fuel selection and use
•Fuel selection: OnIy use the Iight diesel, which is most
suita le for the engine.
GB/T252-1994 light diesel, 0# in summer, -10#, -20#,-35# in
winter.
•Keep dust and water out of the fuel: When filling the
fuel tank from drums, make sure that no dust or water
is mixed in the fuel. Otherwise the serious fuel
injection pump and nozzle pro lems will result.
•Do not overfill: Overfilling is very dangerous. Do not fill
the tank eyond the upper line of the red plug inside
the fuel filter.
WARNING
•Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine completely stopped and cooled.
•Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where the fuel oil stored.
•Do not overfill the tank, make sure the filler cap is securely closed after refueling.
•Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. If any fuel is spilled, wipe off the spilled fuel with a clean, dry and soft
fa ric and make sure the area is dry efore starting the engine.
4.3 Check and refiling the engine oil
WARNING
•Always check the engine oil level with the generating set on a level surface efore starting and refill if
necessary.
•The engine may e damaged if operated with insufficient engine oil, it is also dangerous to refill too much
engine oil as sudden increase in engine speed may e caused y its com ustion.
•Choose the proper engine oil per the am ient temperature.
•Select the most applica le engine oil. Do apply SAE10W-30, SAE15W-40 grade oil which is suita le for
common condition.
•lt is very important to select the applica le engine oil for keep up the performance and life of the generating set.
lf inferior engine oil is used, or if your engine oil is not replaced periodically, the risk of piston seizure, piston ring
sticking and accelerated wear of the cylinder liner, earing and other moving components increases
significantly. So the generating set life will e shortened.
•Manufacturer recommends CC/CD oil classified y APl. Choose the applica le viscosity oil according to the
local am ient temperature.
NOTICE
STAGER YDE series generator set are equipped with low oil warning system. This system will stop the engine
automatically when the oil level falls elow the lower level. This prevents accidents such as earing seizures, etc.

6. OPERATE THE GENERATOR SET
6.1 Operate the generating set
(1) Start the genset per Chapter 5.
(2) Run the engine three minutes at zero load. Check the parameters displayed on the digital
controller.
(3) Check the running noise is normal and make sure there’s no fuel,oil or exhaust leakage.
(4) Set the main reaker to “ON” position. Connect the load to the genset. Make sure the load
power is within the rated power of genset.
6.2 Inspection during the running
(1) Check if the engine noise and vi ration is normal or not.
(2) Check if the engine miss fires or runs rough.
(3) Check the exhaust gas color. (ls it lack or too white?)
Stop the genset immediately in case either of a ove items is found a normal. Do not run the
genset efore trou leshooting. Contact with your near y distri utor for service assistance in case.
NOTICE
•If the engine has een running, the muffler will e very hot. Be careful not to touch the muffler.
Ver. 3/Rev. 2; Data: 8.08.2022 44

•Never refill the fuel tank while the engine is running.
6.3 Break-in period
The first 20 hours running is the reak-in period of the engine. Please follow up elow instructions:
(1) Warm up the engine 5mins efore the initial starting. Run the engine at zero load the engine
is warmed.
(2) Do not apply any heavy load to the genset during reak-in period. The load around 50% of
the rated power of genset is recommended.
(3) Replace engine oil periodically. Engine oil must e replace after initial 20 hours running.
Drain off the old oil and refill the fresh oil after engine run 2-3minutes.
7. LOAD
CAUTION
•Do not start two or more loads simultaneously. Start them one y one.
•Do not use floodlights together with other machines.
7.1 AC application
1. Be sure to run the generating set at rated speed, otherwise AVR (Automatic Voltage
Regulator) will produce the forced excitation. If the genset run long time under such
condition, AVR will e urned out.
2. After switching on the air reaker, o serve the voltmeter on the control panel, the voltmeter
should point to 230V±5% (50Hz) for single-phase unit, 400V±5% (50Hz) for three-phase
unit, then connect the loading to the unit.
3. When the dou le voltage generating set changes over the voltage, the air switch should e
set at "OFF" position. Otherwise the genset and electric devices will e urned out and
damaged.
4. Connect the equipment to the generating set in queue. In case of motor load, firstly the
heavy-duty motor should e connected, then the light-duty motors. If the operation is false,
the generating set will lag or stop suddenly. lt is necessary to unload the generating set
immediately and turn off the main switch and do checks.
5. Three-phase generating set
•Balance three phases during the operation. Stop the engine for check if the tolerance
exceeds 20%. Be sure to keep the tolerance among three phases less than 20%.
•The load for each phase must elow the rated load as well as the current must less than
rated current.
A, B,C,D (or U, V, W, N) phase sequence should e from left to right, or clockwise.
•Concerning three phase asynchronous motors, first start the heavy duty motors, then start
the light-duty motors.
Ver. 3/Rev. 2; Data: 8.08.2022 45

7.2 Single output from three phase genset
Do apply single phase output from receptacle only!
1. The single receptacle output must e ≤20% of genset rated power.
2. In case single phase and three phase output simultaneously: total current output oth of
single phase and three phase must e less than rated current of genset. The un alance
ratio of UVW phase current must e ≤20%.
3. Excessive single phase output in three phase genset will cause the alternator run with
serious phase un alance, resulted the alternator will overheat and urn.
CAUTION
•If overloading of the circuit trips the AC circuit reaker, reduce the electrical load on the circuit, and wait a few
minutes efore resuming operation.
•Breaker can prevent the electric shock. If need to replace, please replace one that has equal degree and
performance.
7.3 Typical electrical appliance
Electrical appliance particularly motor-driven equipment will produce very high current while
