ash must be done by removing the DPF from the unit and placing it into specialized equipment.
Do not remove ash by using water or other chemicals. Removing ash by these methods
may cause equipment damage and create unsafe operating conditions.
Only a qualified service provider should remove, handle and dispose of diesel particulate
filters and ash. These materials may be considered hazardous under federal, state and local
regulations, and must be handled and disposed of properly.
To avoid unnecessary buildup of diesel particulates or soot in the exhaust filter system;
1. Utilize the Automatic (AUTO) Exhaust Filter Cleaning mode.
2. Avoid unnecessary idling.
3. Use proper engine oil (refer to engine operator’s manual).
4. Use only ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (refer to engine operator’s manual).
ECU OVERRIDE SWITCH
The ECU Override switch is located inside the control box. This toggle switch powers up
the ECU without having to start the engine. Use the ECU Override switch to turn the ECU
off. If the generator needs to be shutdown immediately, use the “EMERGENCY STOP”
switch. Refer to “Emergency Stop Switch” on page 35 for additional information.
Use the ECU Override switch for programming or diagnostic purposes only.
Starting the engine while the switch is on could result in damage to the ECU.
LIFTING THE GENERATOR
A central lift point is located on the top of the generator. The central
lift point is connected to a lift structure inside the unit. Attach a sling
or hook directly to the central lift point only if the devices are in good
condition and the equipment being used to raise the unit has
sufficient capacity. Approximate weights can be found starting on
page 10. Always remain aware of others around you when moving
or lifting the generator. Keep the cabinet doors closed and locked.
TOWING THE TRAILER
1. Use the jack to raise or lower the trailer onto the hitch of the towing vehicle. Lock the hitch coupling and attach
the safety chains or cables to the vehicle. Raise the jack foot completely.
2. Connect any trailer wiring to the tow vehicle. Check for proper operation of the stop and signal lights.
3. Make sure all doors are properly latched.
4. Check for proper inflation of the trailer tires. Maximum tire pressures can be found starting on page 10.
5. Check the wheel lugs. Tighten or replace any that are loose or missing. If a tire has been removed for axle service
or replaced, tighten the lugs in the order shown to the following specifications:
A. Start all lug nuts by hand.
B. First pass tighten to 20-25 ft-lbs (27-33 Nm).
C. Second pass tighten to 50-60 ft-lbs (67-81 Nm).
D. Third pass tighten to 90-120 ft-lbs (122-162 Nm).
