OVER SPEED

Possible Causes

• •Low Battery Voltage
• •Low oil pressure
• •Low engine oil level
• •Charging is not possible during operation
• •Engine oil pressure drops below 14 psi (0.98 x 100 kPa) during operation
• •Engine fault causing the engine speed to increase excessively
• •Engine malfunction
• •Air cleaner element becomes clogged during operation
• •Liquid stored in the spill containment exceeds approximately 12gal (45.4 liters) during operation
• •Fuel, oil, or cooling water leakage
• •Battery charging is not possible during operation
• •Low battery voltage
• •Engine oil pressure drops below 7 psi (0.48 x100 kPa) during operation
• •Coolant temperature rises above 212°F (100°C)
• •Insufficient coolant in the coolant sub-tank
• •Loose fan belt
• •Coolant leak
• •Coolant level is excessively low
• •Engine speed increases excessively
• •Engine fault

Suggested Actions

1. 1Contact authorized distributor where the generator was purchased
2. 2Stop the engine and allow the engine to cool
3. 3Check the engine oil level
4. 4Add engine oil until it reaches the maximum level
5. 5Immediately stop the engine
6. 6Clean or replace the air cleaner element
7. 7Flush the liquid stored in the spill containment
8. 8Check for fuel, oil and cooling water leakage, and repair as necessary
9. 9Drain the spill containment before using
10. 10Wait for the generator/engine to cool down
11. 11Check the coolant sub-tank coolant level
12. 12Add coolant to the coolant sub-tank if insufficient
13. 13Inspect for a loose fan belt
14. 14Inspect for a coolant leak
15. 15Check the coolant level in the radiator coolant sub-tank before starting operation
16. 16Contact authorized engine distributor or manufacturer for repair options
17. 17Clean the air cleaner element
18. 18Replace the air cleaner element
19. 19Wait for the engine to cool down
