Operation

STARTING

Most

engines

are

equipped

with

a

start-stop

switch

and

cable

controlled

choke

and

throttle.

1.

Place

the

throttle

control

in

the

SLOW

position

and

the

choke

into

the

FULL

choke

position.

2.

Turn

the

ignition

switch

on

and

engage

starter.

If

engine

fails

to

start

after

30

seconds

determine

the

cause.

Wait

one

minute

before

recranking.

If

the

engine

fails

to

start

at

first

attempt,

rust

inhibitor

oil

used

at

the

factory

may

have

fouled

the

plugs.

Remove

the

plugs,

clean

in

a

suitable

solvent,

dry

thoroughly

and

reinstall.

Heavy

exhaust

smoke

when

the

engine

is

initially

started

is

normal

and

usually

caused

by

rust

inhibitor

oil.

3.

When

the

engine

starts,

gradually

push

the

choke

lever

in

until

the

engine

runs

smoothly.

4.

Black

smoke

from

the

exhaust

and

a

rough

running

engine

usually

indicate

over-choking.

5.

To

stop

the

engine,

turn

the

ignition

switch

to

the

OFF

position.

AWARNING

Contact

with

rotating

machin¬

ery

can

cause

serious

personal

injury

or

death

.

Stay

clear

of

rotating

components

and

ensure

that

protective

shields

and

guards

are

in

place

and

secured

before

operating

machinery

.

2.

See

that

nothing

obstructs

air

flow

to

and

from

the

engine.

3.

Ensure

that

you

are

using

the

proper

grade

and

weight

of

oil

for

ambient

temperatures.

Check

the

oil

level

each

time

you

fill

the

fuel

tank.

4.

Check

the

battery

water

more

frequently

than

every

50

hours

which

is

recommended

under

normal

conditions.

High

temperatures

cause

faster

evaporation.

5.

Change

crankcase

oil

and

filter

more

frequently

than

recommended

under

normal

conditions.

BREAK-IN

PROCEDURE

Controlled

break-in

is

the

ideal

fitting

of

all

internal

moving

metal

parts.

Using

the

proper

oil

and

applying

a

conscientious

maintenance

program

during

this

period

helps

assure

satisfactory

service

from

your

Onan

engine.

Maintain

the

proper

cooling

and

lubrication

during

break-in.

Run

the

engine

at

half

load

for

the

first

three

hours

with

intermittent

periods

of

full

load

to

control

engine

break-in.

A

CAUTION

Using

the

wrong

grade

and

weight

of

oil

and

high

engine

operating

temperatures

during

break-in

can

cause

engine

damage.

Check

the

oil

level

at

least

every

five

operating

hours.

Add

oil

to

keep

it

at

the

proper

level,

but

never

overfill

as

overfilling

may

cause

the

oil

to

foam

and

enter

the

breather

system.

with

an

ammonia

solution

or

a

solution

consisting

of

1/4

pound

of

baking

soda

added

to

1

quart

of

water.

Be

sure

the

vent

plugs

are

tight

to

prevent

cleaning

solution

from

entering

the

cells.

After

cleaning,

flush

the

outside

of

the

battery,

the

battery

compartment,

and

surrounding

areas

with

clear

water.

Keep

the

battery

terminals

clean

and

tight.

After

making

connections,

coat

the

terminals

with

a

light

application

of

petroleum

jelly

or

non-conductive

grease

to

retard

corrosion.

Checking

Specific

Gravity

points

(0.004)

for

every

five

degrees

the

electrolyte

tempera-

ture

is

above

80°

F

(27°

C)

or

subtracting

four

gravity

points

for

every

five

degrees

below

80°F

(27°C).

A

fully

charged

battery

will

have

a

corrected

specific

gravity

of

1.260.

Charge

the

battery

if

the

reading

is

below

1.215.

Breaker

Points

Check

breaker

points

every

100

hours.

Replace

points

and

condenser

every

200

operating

hours.

Replace

sooner

if

points

are

pitted

or

burned.

See

ADJUSTMENTS

section.

COOLING

SYSTEM

Check

and

clean

cooling

fins

and

chaff

screen

at

least

any

dust,

dirt

or

oil

which

may

have

accumulated.

BATTERIES

Disconnect

negative

ground

strap

from

the

battery

before

working

on

any

part

of

the

electrical

system

or

engine.

Disconnect

or

regulator.

AWARNING

Ignition

of

explosive

battery

gases

can

cause

severe

personal

injury.

Do

not

smoke

while

servicing

batteries.

Checking

Electrolyte

Level

Check

the

level

of

the

electrolyte

(acid

and

water

solution)

in

the

batteries

at

least

every

50

hours

of

operation.

Fill

the

battery

cells

to

the

bottom

of

the

filler

neck.

If

cells

are

low

on

water,

add

distilled

water

and

recharge.

If

one

cell

is

low,

check

case

for

leaks.

Keep

the

battery

case

clean

and

dry.

An

accumulation

of

moisture

will

lead

to

a

more

rapid

discharge

and

battery

failure.

ACAUTION

Do

not

add

water

in

freezing

weather

unless

the

engine

is

to

be

run

long

enough

(two

or

three

hours)

to

assure

a

thorough

mixing

of

water

and

electrolyte.

Storing

Batteries

If

the

engine

is

to

be

stored

for

more

than

30

days,

remove

the

batteries.

With

the

electrolyte

level

at

the

bottom

of

the

split

ring,

charge

the

battery

before

storing

it.

After

every

30

days

the

battery

is

in

storage,

bring

it

back

up

to

full

charge.

To

reduce

self¬

discharge,

store

the

battery

in

as

cool

a

place

as

possible

so

long

as

the

electrolyte

does

not

freeze.
