Dayton Operating Instructions and Parts Manual

These components should be inspected

on a daily basis for cracks, leaks, and

abnormal wear. If cracking, leaks or

abnormal wear has occurred, the

components should be replaced

immediately.

IDLE CONTROL ADJUSTMENT:

NOTE: The automatic idle speed is set

between 2640 and 2940 RPM.

The idle speed has been pre-set at

the factory and should rarely require

readjustment. We recommend that

all adjustments of this nature be

made by a Dayton Customer Service

Representative.

Erratic idle operation of the engine

usually indicates a need for carburetor

adjustment to provide a smooth idle.

The idle control will not function

properly when the idle speed is

below the recommended limits or the

carburetor is improperly adjusted.

ENGINE:

The engine for this generator is

governed to operate at speeds close

to 3600 RPM (60Hz) throughout the

operating load range. The no load

speed (before a load is applied) will be

just a bit higher than the load speed

and is normally set to 3750 RPM.

DO NOT TAMPER

WITH THE GOVERNOR

MECHANISM, CHANGE THE SETTING

EXPERIMENTALLY, OR PUSH THE

THROTTLE OPEN IN AN ATTEMPT TO

GENERATE MORE ELECTRICAL CURRENT;

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE OR PERSONAL

INJURY MAY RESULT.

GOVERNOR SPEED ADJUSTMENT SHOULD

BE MADE ONLY BY A Dayton Customer

Service Representative.

CHECKING ENGINE OIL:

Check oil level before each operation

and ensure that it is maintained per

Preparing the Generator; Engine Oil

Capacity section.

CHANGING ENGINE OIL:

Change oil after the first 20 hours of

operation. Thereafter it should be

changed every 100 hours.

1. Make sure the unit is on level ground.

Drain the used oil when the engine

is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and

completely.

2. Stop the engine.

3. Place a suitable container below the

engine to catch the used oil, then

remove the filler cap, drain bolt and

washer.

Oil being drained

may be hot. To

reduce the risk of burn injury, handle

with care. Dispose of used oil properly.

4. Allow the used oil to drain completely,

then reinstall the drain bolt and new

washer, and tighten the drain bolt

securely.

Dispose of used motor oil in a manner

that is compatible with the

environment.We suggest you take

used oil in a sealed container to

your local recycling center or service

station for reclamation. Do not

throw it in the trash, pour it on the

ground, or down a drain.

5. With the engine in a level position,

fill to the upper limit mark on the

dipstick with the recommended oil.

NOTE: Running the engine with a low

oil level can cause engine damage.

The Oil Alert system (applicable types)

will automatically stop the engine

before the oil level falls below the

safe limit. However, to avoid the

inconvenience of an unexpected

shutdown, fill to the upper limit, and

check the oil level regularly. 6.

Remove oil gauge and refill with new

oil.

6. Reinstall the filler cap and dipstick

securely.
