SAFETY RULES GENERATING SETS - LIGHTING TOWERS 2.5.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS DURING MAINTENANCE ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS FOR LIGHTING TOWERS • Make use of qualified personnel to carry out maintenance and troubleshooting. ATTENTION • It is mandatory to stop the engine before performing any maintenance on the machine.
DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE The generating set is a unit which transforms the mechanical energy, generated by combustion engine, into electric energy, through an alternator. The models YSX are a super silenced diesel generating set. The machine construction incorporates an integral roll bar, central lifting point, forklift pockets;...
RECORDING DATA The manual is for the range of machines indicated on the front cover. With the scope to facilitate the search of the spare parts and maintain information of the bought machine, is necessary to record some data. Please write the requested data inside the squares to side: Model of machine Serial number of the machine Serial number of the engine...
MACHINE UNPACKING NOTE Be sure that the lifting devices are: correctly mounted, adequate for the weight of the machine with it’s packaging, and conforms to local rules and regulations. When receiving the goods make sure that the product has not suffered damage during the transport, that there has not been rough handling or taking away of parts contained inside the packing or in the set.
TRANSPORT AND HANDLING GENERAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING THE MA- MOVING METHOD CHINE. The generating sets are lifted with different methods according to the unit’s configuration. Below are the main methods of mo- ving/lifting the genset. ATTENTION MOVING THE GENERATING SET VIA FORKLIFT When lifting with a forklift it is necessary to fork the baseframe sideways so that the forks stick out from one side to the other When moving/lifting a genset it is imperative to be ex-...

TRANSPORT AND HANDLING 4.2.1 MOVING THE GENERATING SET VIA CABLES OR CHAINS MOVING BY SITE TROLLEY / TRAILER use should be respected. BEWARE DO NOT TOW the generating set without trailer, be it manually or using a vehicle. Trolleys/trailers should only be used to move the generating SITE TOW CTL: set for which they were designed.
InstallatIon advIces environMental conditions General installation criteria Installation of a genset has to be planned by qualified and trained technicians, it has to be carried out by a competent attention organization with qualified personnel and proper equipment. attention Open gensets (SKID) have to be located in an area pro- tected from rain, snow, high humidity and direct exposure to the sun.
