4.4Governor
The fuel pump transfers fuel from a source to the
injection pump.
Fuel Pump Test Procedure:
1. Remove the two leads at the bottom of the fuel
pump. The pump terminals are labeled (--) and (+).
SeeFigure4-5.
2. Connect the inlet side of the pump to a fuel source.
Disconnect the outlet hose from the fuel filter and
place the hose end in a container to catch the fuel.
3. Connect the positive (+) terminal of a 12-volt
battery to the positive terminal of the fuel pump.
Connect the negative terminal of the fuel pump to
the negative (--) terminal of the battery. You should
hear the pump operate and see fuel discharge from
the pump outlet. Replace the pump if it does not
operate.
4. Connect a pressure gauge to the outlet side of the
fuel pump. Repeat step 3
. See Section 1 for the
specified fuel pump pressure ratings.
The centrifugal, mechanical governor keeps the engine
speed constant by automatically adjusting the amount
of fuel supplied to the engine according to changes in
the load. The governor requires no regular service. The
factory adjusts the governor during run-in, and further
adjustment should not be needed unless greatly varying
load conditions are encountered or if poor governor
control develops after extended usage.
60 Hz generator sets are designed to operate in the
range of57-63 Hz(1800 rpm under full load and
1890 rpm under no load).
50 Hz generator sets are designed to operate in the
range of 47-53 Hz (1500 rpm under full load and 1590
rpm under no load).
To check the engine speed, use a frequency meter
connected to the load leads or use a hand tachometer. If
adjustment is needed, loosen the locking nut on the
speed adjusting screw. Turn the screw clockwise to
increase the speed (and frequency). To decrease the
speed, turn the screw counterclockwise. Tighten the
locking nut when the correct setting is reached. See
Figure 4-6.

5.2Water-Cooled Exhaust
Manifold
Each marine generator set has a water-cooled exhaust
manifold. The coolant solution circulates through the
manifold, reducing the amount of heat radiated from the
exhaust into the surrounding area.
The engine thermostat is located in the water-cooled
exhaust manifold. See Figure 5-2. See Section 1 for the
water-cooled exhaust manifold torque spec.

5.3Closed Heat Exchanger
In a closed cooling system, seawater circulates through
separate chambers within the heat exchanger to cool
the engine coolant.The seawater then mixes with
engine exhaust and ejects out of the exhaust outlet. See
Section 1 for coolant capacity, thermostat and pressure
cap ratings.
Note: Coolant solution. A coolant solution of 50%
ethylene glycol provides freezing protection to
-- 3 7 °C(--34°F) and overheating protection to
129°C (265°F). A coolant solution with less than
50% ethylene glycol may not provide adequate
freezing and overheating protection. A coolant
solution with more than 50% ethylene glycol can
cause engine or component damage. Do not use
alcohol or methanol antifreeze or mix them with
the specified coolant.Consult the engine
manufacturer’s operation manual for engine
coolant specifications.
Figure 5-2Thermostat Location (10EOZD model
shown)
5.4Check and Fill Coolant
Note: Do not add coolant to a hot engine. Adding
coolant to a hot engine can cause the cylinder
block or cylinder head to crack. Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Maintain the coolant level in the coolant recovery tank at
approximately 1/4 full. Before filling the cooling system,
close all petcocks and tighten all hose clamps. Use a
solution of 50% ethylene glycol and 50% clean,
softened water to inhibit rust/corrosion and prevent
freezing. Add coolant, as necessary, to the coolant
recovery tank. Periodically check the coolant level on
closed systems by removing the pressure cap. Do not
rely solely on the level in the coolant recovery tank. Add
fresh coolant until level is just below the overflow tube
opening.
Note: Coolant solution. A coolant solution of 50%
ethylene glycol provides freezing protection to
-- 3 7 _C(--34_F)and overheating protection to
129°C (265°F). A coolant solution with less than
50% ethylene glycol may not provide adequate
freezing and overheating protection. A coolant
solution with more than 50% ethylene glycol can
cause engine or component damage. Do not use
alcohol or methanol antifreeze or mix them with
the specified coolant.Consult the engine
manufacturer’s operation manual for engine
coolant specifications.

7.3Sequence of Operation
The following sections describe the controller sequence
of operation during generator start, run, stop, and fault
shutdown modes.Use this as a starting point for
controller and relay board fault identification. Refer to
the wiring diagrams in Section 10 to assist in the
troubleshooting procedure.
When the engine comes up to speed, the low oil
pressure switch contacts open.
The cyclic cranking cycle is programmed into the ADC’s
application code and is not adjustable in the field.
7.3.1Starting Sequence, Master Switch
Moved to RUN
When the master switch is moved to the RUN position,
there is a delay of about 1 second before the ADC
attempts to start the engine. The run relay energizes
and the run LED (1) turns on. The crank and flash relays
energize and the corresponding LEDs (2 and 3) turn on
0.5 seconds later. The ADC display indicates the crank
cycle 1 code, CC 1.
The ADC attempts to start the generator set three times
(three crank cycles, 15 seconds crank and 15 seconds
off). If the generator set does not start in three attempts,
the system shuts down on an overcrank fault.
The factory sets the cranking cycle for three cycles of
15 seconds on time and 15 seconds off time. If the
cranking cycle seems shorter than the factory setting,
check the engine starting battery.
7.3.2Starting Sequence, Remote Start
When the master switch is moved to the AUTO position,
the controller may remain OFF until the remote start
switch or transfer switch engine start contacts close the
first time, if the power jumper is removed.
The startsequence proceedsas describedin
Section 7.3.1, StartingSequence, Master Switch
Moved to RUN.
TP-6255 7/0647Section 7 Controller
Page 48
7.3.3Running Sequence
When the engine speed reaches 750 rpm, the crank
relay deenergizes and the crank LED (3) turns off.
When the output voltage on leads 11 and 44 (for 1-phase
models) or leads 7, 8, and 9 (for 3-phase models)
reaches about 30 VAC, the flash relay deenergizes and
the flash LED (2) turns off.
7.3.4Stopping Sequence, Master
Switch Moved to OFF/RESET
7.4Faults
7.4.1Fault Shutdowns
Under the fault conditions listed in Figure 7-4, the ADC
displays a fault code and the generator set shuts down.
Always identify and correct the cause of a fault
shutdown before restarting the generator set. Refer to
Section 6, Troubleshooting, for instructions to identify
and correct the cause of the fault.
Place the generator master switch in the OFF/RESET
position. The run relay deenergizes and the run LED (1)
turns off. The generator set stops.
7.3.5Stopping Sequence, Remote Stop
If the generator set is running, momentarily closing the
remote start/stop contacts deenergizes the run relay
and the run LED (1) turns off, but the controller does not
power down.The controller remains powered and
displays the engine runtime hours.
Note: For units with serial numbers before 2051415:
Disconnecting the P7 jumper will allow the
controller to power down 48 hours after generator
set shutdown.See Section 7.8, Continuous
Power Mode.
Note: For units with serial numbers 2051415 and
later:
If the ADC 2100 is configured for a CAN gauge,
the controller will not power down (if the master
switch is in the AUTO position).
To restart the generator set, first move the generator set
master switch to the OFF/RESET position to reset the
controller.
Note: For units with serial numbers before 2051415:
If the power jumper is removed and the controller
powers down after a fault shutdown, move the
master switch to the OFF/RESET position and
then to the RUN position to display the fault code.
Moving the master switch to the OFF position
again will clear the fault. See Section 7.8 for more
information on the continuous power mode
jumper.
7.4.2Warnings
The fault conditions listed in Figure 7-5 will cause the
controller to display a fault code but will not shut down
the generator set.
If the ADC 2100 is not configured for a CAN
gauge, the controller will power down after
48 hours (if the master switch is in the AUTO
position). If the generator has been started, the
controller will power down 48 hours after the
generator stops.

7.5Controller Configuration and
Adjustment
The first step in troubleshooting the controller is to verify
that the controller is correctly configured for the
generator set.The controller’s configuration modes
allow setting of the engine type, generator set
configuration (marine, mobile, or standby), data input
types, and other parameters.
Follow the instructions in Figure 7-7 to enter the
configuration mode while the engine is not running and
then step through the following parameters. Use the
up (
∧) and down (∨) arrow buttons to select the
appropriate setting for the application.
Note: Be sure to save your settings before exiting the
configuration mode. The controller reverts to the
last saved settings when the master switch is
moved to the OFF/RESET position.
The controller configuration for each generator model is
set at the factory. Generator set reconnection, sender
changes, controller replacement, or other changes may
result in the need to change the controller configuration.
Use the instructions in the following section to check the
controller settings and change them, if necessary.
7.5.1Controller Time Out
The controller will automatically exit the configuration
mode without saving any changes after about 1 minute
if no buttons are pressed.Start the configuration
procedure over again from the beginning if the controller
exits the configuration mode before the settings have
been saved.
Changes in voltage and speed adjustments are also lost
if they are not saved before the generator set shuts
down. The generator set continues to run with the new
settings until it shuts down but then reverts to the
previous settings at the next startup. Be sure to save
your changes immediately after making adjustments.
7.5.2Controller Configuration
Voltage/frequency setting (Uu). Select the system
voltage and frequency from the table in Figure 7-6.
Note: This parameter sets the nominal system voltage
and frequency. To adjust the output (measured)
voltageandfrequency, seeSection4.4,
Section 7.5.3, and Figure 7-10.
Unit configuration (Uc).This parameter sets the
generator set type: marine, standby, or mobile.
Engine configuration (Ec). The engine configuration
must match the generator set engine type.
Advanced configuration mode (Adnc).The data
input types, battery voltage, and communications
setting can be changed in the advanced configuration
mode.Press the up arrow button when Adnc is
displayed to enter the advanced configuration mode.
Engine data input types (Ed). This setting defines the
type of senders used on the generator set engine.
Battery voltage (Bt). This setting toggles between 12
and 24 VDC for the engine starting battery voltage.
The controller configuration is factory-set and should
not normally require changes in the field. However, the
controller configuration may need to be changed after
generator set reconnection or controller replacement.
The controller’s configuration mode allows adjustment
of the system parameters listed in this section. Change
the system voltage and frequency after reconnection or
controller replacement.The unit configuration and
engine type are factory-set for each type of generator
set and engine and should not require changes unless
the controller is replaced.
The controller’s advanced configuration mode allows
the user to set the data input type for engine senders,
toggle the battery voltage between 12 and 24 volts, and
change the controller communications setting for
optional meters. Check these settings after controller
replacement and change them, if necessary, to match
the settings shown in Figure 7-6.
Communications setting (Cn). This setting allows the
user to set the controller for communication with
optional meters, which are available for marine and
mobile units only.
7.5.3Voltage Adjustment
The flowchart in Figure 7-10 outlines the procedures for
using the ADC controller to adjust the output voltage.
Voltage adjustment may be required after controller
replacement, generator set reconnection, or other
service procedures. The generator set must be running
during this adjustment. Use a multimeter to measure
the generator set output voltage during adjustment.
RefertoSection 8.8.2,VoltageAdjustmentfor
instructions to measure the output voltage.
Note: Be sure to save your settings before exiting the
configuration mode. The controller reverts to the
last saved settings when the master switch is
moved to the OFF/RESET position.

and instructions to obtain the latest application code and
Program Loader software. Refer to TT-1285, Program
Loader, for instructions to load the application program
onto the controller.
7.7Silicon Controlled Rectifier
(SCR) Module
The silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) module works with
the ADC 2100 to regulate the output voltage.The
ADC 2100 monitors generator output voltage and
adjusts the excitation current to the rotor through the
SCR module. The SCR module location is shown in
Figure 7-1.
The SCR module is powered through stator leads 55
and 66 connected to SCR terminals AC1 and AC2.
Leads G connected to terminals G1 and G2 provide the
controller signal. Leads FP and FN connected to the
positive (+) and negative (--) SCR terminals provide
excitation current to the rotor. See Figure 7-11 and the
wiring diagrams in Section 10.
The SCR module is protected by a 10-amp fuse (F1) in
lead 55 in the wiring harness. Check the fuse and
replace it, if blown.
In the case of output voltage problems, check the
controller configuration and settings. Then test the SCR
module using the following procedure.

Note: The P7 jumper was available on generator sets
with serial numbers before 2051415.
WARNING
Accidental starting.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Note: The controller is powered by the generator set
engine starting battery.
A jumper on connector P7 on the back of the controller
causes the controller to remain powered at all times.
With the jumper connected, the ADC’s LED display is
powered by the generator set’s battery. Also, the remote
start/stop command is supported via the ADC remote
gauge. See the wiring diagram and schematic drawing
in Section 10. Controllers are shipped from the factory
with the jumper connected. Disconnecting the jumper
allows the controller to power down 48 hours after the
generator set shuts down and the remote start/stop
command is no longer supported.
Disconnect the battery cables before
working on thegenerator set.
Remove the negative (--) lead first
when disconnecting the battery.
Reconnect the negative (--) lead last
when reconnecting the battery.
Disabling the generator set.Accidental starting can
cause severe injury or death.Before working on the
generator set or connected equipment, disable the generator
set as follows: (1) Move thegenerator set master switch to the
OFF position. (2) Disconnect the power to the battery charger.
(3) Remove the battery cables, negative (--) lead first.
Reconnect the negative (--) lead last when reconnecting the
battery. Follow these precautions to prevent starting of the
generator set by an automatic transfer switch, remote
start/stop switch, or engine start command from a remote
computer.
WARNING
Hazardous voltage.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Moving rotor.
A jumper across controller pins P7-1 and P7-2
maintains power to the controller at all times.
Controllers are shipped with the jumper connected for
continuous power. See Figure 7-13.
If the generator set is not used for a long period of time,
without exercising, the battery may drain.The P7
connector has either 2 or 3 pins. Disconnecting the
jumper or moving the jumper to pins P7-2 and P7-3
allows the controller to power down automatically
48 hours after the generator set shuts down if the
generator set master switch is in the AUTO position. A
remote start signal (from a transfer switch or a remote
start/stop switch connected to controller leads 3 and 4)
or moving the generator set master switch to the RUN
position turns the controller back on.
Note: For most applications, it is not necessary to
disconnect the continuous power mode jumper.
Use the following procedure to disconnect the
jumper, if desired.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards and electrical enclosures
areinplace.

Section 8 Component Testing and Adjustment
8.1Theory of Operation
These generator sets utilize a rotating-field alternator to
produce AC voltage. Upon activation of the generator
master switch, DC current from the battery magnetizes
the rotor (field). When the magnetized rotor rotates
within the stator windings, an electrical voltage develops
within the stator. As engine speed and generator output
increase, the SCR module feeds rectified stator output
current to the rotor through the exciter to increase the
strength of the rotor field. As the rotor field increases in
strength, generator output also increases.The
ADC 2100 monitors the generator output voltage
through leads 11 and 44 (for 1-phase models) or leads
V7, V8, and V9 (for 3-phase models) and adjusts the DC
current from the SCR module to the rotor to meet load
requirements. See Figure 8-1.
8.2Separate Excitation
To determine the cause of no- or low-AC output, refer to
the troubleshooting flowchart in Figure 8-2.Before
beginning the test procedures, read all of the safety
precautions at the beginning of this manual. Many of the
test procedures include additional safety precautions.
Check the condition of the alternator fuse before
performing the separate excitation procedure.The
inline fuse is located in lead 55 of the wiring harness.
See Figure 8-1. If the fuse is not blown, use the following
procedure to separately excite the generator using an
external voltage source (a 12-volt automotive battery).
Separately exciting the generator can identify faulty
voltage regulation by the ADC 2100 or reveal a running
fault in the rotor and/or stator. An external power source
duplicates the role of the voltage regulator and excites
the generator field (rotor). A generator component that
appears to be in good condition while stationary may
exhibit a running open or short circuit while moving.
Short circuits can be caused by centrifugal forces acting
on the windings during rotation or insulation breakdown
as temperatures increase.

Grounding electrical equipment. Hazardous voltage can
cause severe injury or death. Electrocution is possible
whenever electricity is present. Turn off the main circuit
breakers of all power sources before servicing the equipment.
Configure the installation to electrically ground the generator
set, transfer switch, and related equipment and electrical
circuits to comply with applicable codes and standards. Never
contact electrical leads or appliances when standing in water
or on wet ground because these conditions increase the risk of
electrocution.
Short circuits.Hazardous voltage/current can cause
severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or equipment damage.Do not contact electrical
connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or
repairs. Remove all jewelry before servicing the equipment.
Separate Excitation Procedure:
Perform the following procedure to use an external
voltage source to excite the main field (rotor).
1. Disconnect the black FN and FP leads from the
alternator at the SCR module (+) and (--) terminals.
2. Connect a DC ammeter, 20-amp fuse, and a
12-volt automotive battery to the positive (FP) and
negative (FN) exciter leads as shown in Figure 8-3.
Note and record the ammeter reading.
Note: The approximate ammeter reading should be the
battery voltage divided by the specified rotor
resistance. See Section 1, Specifications, for the
specified rotor resistance values.
Example :
12 volts (battery voltage)
3.5 ohms (rotor resistance)
= 3.4 amps (rotor current)
3. Start the engine and check that the ammeter
reading remains stable.An increasing meter
reading indicates a shorted rotor. A decreasing
meter reading to zero or an unstable reading
suggests a running open. Refer to Section 8.6,
Rotor, to test the rotor. If the ammeter reading is
stable, proceed to step 4.
4. Check for AC output across the stator leads; see
Section 8.7, Stator. Compare the readings to the
ACoutputvaluesshowninSection1,
Specifications. If the readings vary considerably, a
faulty stator is likely. Refer to Section 8.7, Stator,
for further information.
5. If this test shows that the rotor and stator are in
good condition, check the wiring and fuses. Check
the SCR module.See Section 7.7, Silicon

8.3Exciter Field
Direct current from the battery magnetizes the exciter
field.When the exciter armature rotates within the
magnetized exciter field windings, an electrical current
develops within the exciter armature. Test the exciter
field according to the following procedure.
Exciter Field Test Procedure:
1. Place the generator set master switch in the OFF
position.
5. Check the exciter field for a short-to-ground
condition. Use a megohmmeter to apply 500 volts
DC to the FN or FP lead and the exciter field frame.
SeeFigure 8-5.Followthemegohmmeter
manufacturer’sinstructionsforusingthe
megohmmeter.A reading of approximately
1.5 MOhms and higher indicates the field winding
is functional. A reading of less than approximately
1.5 MOhms indicates deterioration of the winding
insulation and possible current flow to ground; if so,
replace the exciter field.
2. Disconnect the generator set engine starting
battery, negative (--) lead first.
3. Disconnect the FN/FP leads.
4. Check the exciter field resistance by connecting an
ohmmeter across exciter field FN and FP leads.
See Figure 8-4. See Section 1, Specifications for
the resistance reading of a cold exciter field. A low
reading indicates an internal short and a high
reading indicates an open winding.Repair or
replace the exciter field if the ohmmeter readings
indicate an inoperative exciter field (refer to
Section 9 for removal). If the resistance test is
inconclusive, perform a megohmmeter test on the
exciter field as described in the next step.

The exciter armature supplies excitation current to the
generator main field through the rectifier module. Test
the exciter armature as described in the following steps.
Exciter Armature Test Procedure:
1. Disassemble the alternator. Refer to Section 9.
2. With the alternator disassembled, disconnect the
armature leads from the rectifier module AC
terminals. Refer to Section 10.
3. With an ohmmeter on the R x 1 scale, check the
resistance across the exciter armature leads. See
Figure 8-6. See Section 1, Specifications for the
armature resistance. No continuity indicates an
open armature winding. If the resistance test is
inconclusive, perform a megohmmeter test on the
exciter armature as described in the next step.
Note: Mostohmmeterswillnotaccurately
measure less than one ohm. Consider the
exciter armature functional if the resistance
reading (continuity) is low and there is no
evidence of a shortedwinding (heat
discoloration).

8.7Stator
The stator consists of a series of coils of wire laid in a
laminated steel frame. The stator leads supply voltage
to the AC load and exciter regulator.
Before testing the stator, inspect it for heat discoloration
and visible damage to the housing lead wires and
exposed and varnished areas of the frame laminations.
Be sure the stator is securely fastened in the stator
housing.
The stator produces electrical output (AC) as the
magnetized main field rotates within the stator windings.
Test the condition of the stator according to the following
procedure.
Leads 1, 2, 3, and 4 are the generator output leads.
Leads 55 and 66 are the voltage regulator supply and
sensing leads. Refer to the schematic in Figure 8-11
when performing the following tests.

8.8Voltage
8.8.1Voltage Regulation
Voltage regulation is performed by the Advanced Digital
Control (ADC) and the SCR module. The ADC monitors
generator output voltage and adjusts the excitation
current to the rotor through the SCR module.
8.8.2Voltage Adjustment
WARNING
Hazardous voltage.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards and electrical enclosures
areinplace.
Moving rotor.
The factory sets the voltage for correct generator
operation under a variety of load conditions. Usually, the
voltage needs no further adjustment. Adjust the voltage
when necessary according to the following procedure.
The adjustment procedure requires a meter that can
measure voltage and frequency.
Use the ADC to adjust the voltage, gain, and volts/Hz.
Refer to Section 7 for instructions to adjust each
parameter and save the changes using the controller
keypad.
Note: The ADC controller will time out and exit the
adjustment mode after approximately 1 minute if
no buttons are pressed. Any unsaved changes
are discarded if the controller times out before the
settings are saved.Refer to Section 7.5 for
instructions to save your settings.
Voltage Adjustment.Adjusts generator output
between 100 and 130 volts.
Gain (Stability) Adjustment.Fine tunes regulator
circuitry to reduce light flicker.
Volts/Hz Adjustment. Determines frequency (Hz) at
which generator output voltage begins to drop.
Short circuits.Hazardous voltage/current can cause
severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or equipment damage.Do not contact electrical
connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or
repairs. Remove all jewelry before servicing the equipment.
Grounding electrical equipment. Hazardous voltage can
cause severe injury or death. Electrocution is possible
whenever electricity is present. Turn off the main circuit
breakers of all power sources before servicing the equipment.
Configure the installation to electrically ground the generator
set, transfer switch, and related equipment and electrical
circuits to comply with applicable codes and standards. Never
contact electrical leads or appliances when standing in water
or on wet ground because these conditions increase the risk of
electrocution.
Voltage Adjustment Procedure
1. Connect a digital voltmeter from one side of the
circuit breaker to the L0 terminal. See Figure 8-16
for the L0 terminal location.Set the meter to
measure voltage.
Note: For 120- or 240-volt systems the voltage
measured from one side of the breaker to L0
should be approximately 120 VAC.For
240-volt systems, the voltage measured
from one side of the circuit breaker to the
other should be approximately 240 VAC.
The ADC maintains generator output at the specified
voltage under load until the generator engine speed
drops to a preset level (factory setting 57.5 Hz on 60 Hz
models and 47.5 Hz on 50 Hz models). Then the ADC
allows the generator voltage and current to drop. The
voltage/current drop enables the engine to pick up the
load.When the generator speed returns to normal
(60 Hz or 50 Hz) as load is accepted, the generator
output also returns to normal.
2. Start the generator set.
3. Follow the ADC instructions in Section 7.5 to enter
the adjustment mode and increase voltage or
decrease voltage (parameter 1P) until the output
reaches the desired voltage.
4. Follow the ADC instructions to step to the voltage
gain adjustment menu. Adjust the voltage gain
(parameter 2P) until the light flicker minimizes.
Save the settings.
TP-6255 7/0670 Section 8 Component Testing and Adjustment
Page 71
5. Check and readjust the voltage if necessary.
6. Set the voltmeter to measure frequency. Adjust the
engine speed to the cut-in frequency shown in
Figure 8-17 by adjusting the governor as described
in Section 4.4.
7. Set the voltmeter to measure voltage. Adjust the
1
volts/Hz (parameter 3P) until the voltage level
measured by the voltmeter begins to drop. When
set, the generator (as load is applied) attempts to
2
maintain normal output until the engine speed
drops below the cut-in frequency set in step 6.

for different phases; never connect them together.
If the installation requires a factory two-pole circuit
breaker, do not connect the load-side terminals of the
circuit breaker together; see Figure 8-18.If the
installation requires a 100--120-volt, 2-wire system, use
a single-pole circuit breaker. See Figure 8-19. When
connecting stator phase leads together, size the output
lead (L1) to handle the amperage. Use a jumper lead on

hands, feet, hair, clothing, and test leads away from the belts
and pulleys when the generator set is running. Replace
guards, screens, and covers before operating the generator
set.
Short circuits.Hazardous voltage/current can cause
severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or equipment damage.Do not contact electrical
connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or
repairs. Remove all jewelry before servicing the equipment.
Temperature Sensor (CTS)
The coolant temperature sensor (CTS) is used to
monitor engine temperature for the high engine
temperature fault shutdown (HE). See Figure 8-23 for
the coolant temperature sensor location.Set the
generator set master switch to the OFF position and
allow the generator set to cool. Disconnect the CTS and
use an ohmmeter to measure the resistance across the
sensor. The sensor resistance varies with temperature
and should be within the values shown in Figure 8-24. If
the resistance is very low (indicated a short circuit) or
very high (indicating an open circuit) replace the CTS.

Short circuits.Hazardous voltage/current can cause
severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or equipment damage.Do not contact electrical
connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or
repairs. Remove all jewelry before servicing the equipment.
To further check generator set components, disconnect
the battery and remove wiring harness plugs from the
ADC circuit board. Use an ohmmeter to check the
continuity of the components listed in Figure 8-30. Also
see Section 10, Wiring Diagrams.
Figure 8-30 gives resistance readings for functional
components. A zero reading on the ohmmeter indicates
continuity. No ohmmeter reading indicates very high
resistance or an open circuit.A measurement that
varies significantly from the value shown in the table
indicatesafaultycomponent;replacefaulty

Appendix B Common Hardware Application Guidelines
Use the information below and on the following pages to
identify proper fastening techniques when no specific
reference for reassembly is made.
Bolt/Screw Length: When bolt/screw length is not given,
use Figure 1 as a guide. As a general rule, a minimum
length of one thread beyond the nut and a maximum
length of 1/2 the bolt/screw diameter beyond the nut is
the preferred method.
Washers and Nuts: Use split lock washers as a bolt
locking device where specified. Use SAE flat washers
with whiz nuts, spiralock nuts, or standard nuts and
preloading (torque) of the bolt in all other applications.
See General Torque Specifications and other torque
specifications in the service literature.
For round and slotted exit holes, determine if
hardware is greater than 1/2 inch in diameter, or
1/2 inch in diameter or less.Hardware that is
greater than 1/2 inch in diameter takes a standard
nut and SAE washer. Hardware 1/2 inch or less in
diameter can take a properly torqued whiz nut or
spiralock nut. See the diagram below.
3. Follow these SAE washer rules after determining
exit hole type:
a. Always use a washer between hardware and a
slot.
b. Always use a washer under a nut (see 2 above
for exception).
c. Use a washer under a bolt when the female
thread is fixed (weld nut).
Unacceptable Nut/Bolt Clearance
1. 1/2 of bolt diameter
2. Minimum 1 full thread beyond top of nut
3. Below top of nut
