are in good operating condition and both units are
mechanically sound.
The following list of suggestions should be used when towing
your generator:
■
Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle
are rated equal to, or greater than the tr ailer "gross vehicle
weight rating" (GVWR).
■
ALWAYS inspect the hitch and coupling f or wear. NEVER
tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains
etc.
■
Check the tire air pressure on both the towing vehicle
and the trailer. Also check the tire tread wear on both
vehicles.

Brake Troubleshooting Tables
Use the following definitions while reading Table1.
1. Fuel Cell - Provides an adequate amount of fuel for
the equipment in use. Fuel cells must be empty when
transporting equipment.
2. Braking System - System employed in stopping the
trailer . Typical braking systems are electric, surge, hydraulic, h ydraulic-surge and air.
7. Coupler - Type of hitch used on the trailer for towing.
8. Tire Siz e - Indicates the diameter of the tire in inches
(10,12,14, etc.), and the width in millimeters
(175,185,205, etc.). The tire diameter must match the
diameter of the tire rim.
9. Tire Ply - The tire ply (lay ers) number is rated in letters;
2-ply,4-ply,6-ply, etc.
10. Wheel Hub - The wheel hub is connected to the trailer’s
axle.
11. Tire Rim - Tires are mounted on a tire rim. The tire rim
must match the size of the tire.
12. Lug Nuts - Used to secure the wheel to the wheel hub.
Always use a torque wrench to tighten down the lug
nuts. See Table 4 and Figure 5 for lug nut tightening and
sequence.
13. Axle - Indicates the maximum weight the axle can support in pounds, and the diameter of the axle expressed
in inches (see Table 3 on page 17). Please not that
some trailers hav e a double axle . This will be shown as
2-6000 lbs., meaning two axles with a total weight capacity of 6000 pounds.
14. Suspension - Protects the trailer chassis from shock
transmitted through the wheels. Types of suspension
used are leaf, Q-flex, and air ride.
15. Electrical - Electrical connectors (looms) are provided
with the trailer so the brake lights and turn signals can
be connected to the towing vehicle. See page 16 for
proper wiring connections.
16. Application - Indicates which units can be employed
on a particular trailer.
3. GVWR- Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), is the
maximum number of pounds the trailer can carry, including the fuel cell (empty).
4. Frame Length - This measurment is from the ball hitch
to the rear bumper (reflector).
5. Frame Width - This measurement is from fender to

DCA-150SSKII — TRAILER BRAKING SYSTEM
Brakes
If your trailer has a braking system, the brakes should be
inspected the first 200 miles of operation. This will allow
the brake shoes and drums to seat properly. After the first
200 mile interval, inspect the brakes every 3,000 miles. If
driving over rough terrain, inspect the brakes more
frequently.
Electric Brakes
Electrically actuated brakes (Figure 2) are similar to
hydraulic brakes. The basic difference is that hydraulic
brakes are actuated by an electromagnet.
Listed below are some of the advantages that electric
brakes have over hydraulic brakes:
!
An electric brake system can be manually adjusted to
provide the corrected braking capability for varying road
and load conditions.
!
An electric brake system can be modulated to provide
more or less braking force, thus easing the brake load
on the towing vehicle.
!
An electric brake system has very little lag time between
the time the vehicle’s brakes are actuated and the
trailer’s brakes are actuated.
!
An electric brake system can provide an independent
emergency brake system.
Road testing is necessarry in order to properly synchronize
the towing vehicle’s braking to the trailer’s braking. Brake
lockup, grabbiness, or harshness is due to lack of
synchronization between the tow vehicle and the trailer
being towed or under-adjusted brakes.
Before any brake synchronizations adjustments can be
made, the trailer brakes should be burnished-in by applying
the brakes 20-30 times with approximately a 20 m.p.h.
decrease in speed, e.g. 40 m.p.h. to 20 m.p.h.. Allow ample
time for brakes to cool between application. This allows
the brake shoes to slightly be seated into the brake drum
surface.
Figure 2 displays the major electric brake components that
will require inspection and maintenance. Please inspect
these components as required. Refer to Table 5 for electric
brake troubleshooting guidelines.
Electric Brake Adjustment
1. Place the trailer on jack stands. Make sure the jack
stands are placed on secure level ground.
2. Check the wheel and drum for free rotation.
3. Remove the adjusting hole cover from the adjusting
slot at the bottom brake backing plate.
4. With a screwdriver or standard adjusting tool, rotate
the star wheel of the adjuster assembly to expand the
brake shoes.
5. Adjust the brake shoes outward until the pressure of
the lining against the wheel drum makes the wheel
difficult to turn.
6. Rotate the star wheel in the opposite direction until the
wheel rotates freely with slight lining drag.
PAGE 14 —DCA-150SSKII— PARTS AND OPERATION MANUAL — REV. #2 (05/08/01)
7. Replace the adjusting hole cover and lower the trailer
to the ground.
8. Repeat steps 1 through 6 on the remaining brakes.

Hydraulic/Air/Surge Brakes
Hydraulic brakes (Figure 3) should not require any special
attention with the exception of routine maintenance such
as shoe and lining replacement. These brakes can be
adjusted in the same manner as electric brakes. Brake
lines should be periodically checked for cracks, kinks, or

DCA-150SSKII — TRAILER TIRES & SUSPENSION
Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical
components of the trailer. When specifying or replacing
the trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle
are properly matched.
CAUTION:
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a
wheel. DO NOT install an inner tube to
correct a leak through the rim. If the
rim is cracked, the air pressure in the
inner tube may cause pieces of the rim
to explode (break off) with great force and cause serious
eye or bodily injury.
Suspension
The leaf suspension springs and associated components
Tire Wear/Inflation
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in
preserving tire life. Pressure should be checked cold before
operation. DO NO T bleed air from tires when they are hot.
Check inflation pressure weekly to insure the maximum
tire life and to pre vent premature tread wear.
Table 2 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the
causes and solutions of tire wear problems.
(Figure 4) should be visually inspected every 6,000 miles
for signs of excessive wear, elongation of bolt holes, and
loosening of fasteners. Replace all damaged parts
(suspension) immediately . Torqued suspension components
as detailed in Table 3.
CAUTION:
NOTE
AL WAYS wear safety glasses when removing
or installing force fitted parts. Failure to
comply may result in serious injury.

It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel
mounting torque on the trailer. Be sure to use only the
fasteners matched to the cone angle of the wheel. Proper
procedure for attachement of the wheels is as follows:
1. Star t all wheel lug nuts by hand.
2. Torque all lug nuts in sequence. See Figure 5. DONO T torque the wheel lug n uts all the way down. Tighten
each lug nut in 3 separate passes as defined by Table
4.
3. After first road use, retorque all lug nuts in sequence.
Check all wheel lug nuts periodically for continued safe
operaion.

DCA-150SSKII — INSTALLATION
Outdoor Installation
Install the generator in a location where it will not be exposed
to rain or sunshine. Make sure that the generator is on secure
level ground so it cannot slide or shift around. Also install
the generator so the exhaust will not be discharged in the
direction of nearby homes.
The installation site must be relatively free from moisture
and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from
excessive moisture. Failure to do will result in deterioration
of the insulation and will result in short circuits and grounding.
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive
materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear, not
only to the engine parts, but also to the alternator parts.
CAUTION :
Pay close attention to ventilation when
operating the generator inside tunnels and
caves. The engine exhaust contains
noxious elements. Engine exhaust must
be routed to a ventilated area.
Indoor Installation
Exhaust gases from diesel engines are extremely poisonous.
Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust fumes
must be vented to the outside. The engine should be installed
at least two feet from any outside wall. Using an exhaust
pipe which is too long or too small can cause excessive
back pressure which will cause the engine to heat
excessively and possibly burn the valves.
CAUTION
Generator Grounding
To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to
the equipment, it is important to provide a good EARTH
ground.
Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code (NEC)
provides guide lines for proper grounding and specifies that
the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system
of the building as close to the point of cable entry as
practical.
NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following
grounding requirements:
1.Use one of the following wire types to connect the
generator to earth ground.
a.Copper - 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) or larger .
b .Aluminum - 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) or larger .
2.When grounding the generator (Figure 9) connect the
ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on
the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the other
end of the ground cable to earth ground.
3.NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground
rod should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground.
:
An electric shock is apt to happen when
vibrators are used. Pay close attention to
handling when operating vibrators and
always use rubber boots and gloves to
insulate the body from electrical shock.
DO NOT co v er v entilation areas on the enclosure , co v ering
the ventilation grids will cause the engine to over heat.

Cleaning the Radiator
The radiator may overheat if the fins become overloaded
with dust or debris. Periodically clean the radiator fins with
compressed air. Cleaning inside the machine is dangerous ,
so clean only with the engine turned off and the battery
disconnected.
Air Cleaner
Periodic cleaning/replacement is necessar y. Inspect it in
accordance with the Komatsu Engine Owner's Manual.
Fan Belt Tension
A slack fan belt may contribute to overheating, or to
insufficient charging of the battery. Inspect the fan belt for
damage and wear and adjust it in accordance with the
Komatsu Engine Owner's Manual.
The fan belt tension is proper if the fan belt bends 7 to 10
mm (Figure 40) when depressed with the thumb as shown
below.

Battery
This unit is of negative ground. DO NO T connect in rev erse.
Always maintain battery fluid level between the specified
marks. Battery life will be shortened, if the fluid level is not
properly maintained. Add only distilled water when
replenishment is necessary.
The battery is sufficiently charged if the specific gravity of
the battery fluid is 1.28 (at 68°F). If the specific gravity
should fall to 1.245 or lower, it indicates that the battery is
dead and needs to be recharged or replaced.
Check to see whether the battery cables are loose. Poor
contact may result in poor starting or malfunctions. Always
keep the terminals firmly tightened. Coating the terminals
with a thin film of grease will help to inhibit corrosion.
:
Never place hands near the belts or fan
while the generator set is running.

DCA-150SSKII — MAINTENANCE
General Inspection
Prior to each use, the generating set should be cleaned and
inspected for deficiencies. Check for loose, missing or
damaged nuts, bolts or other fasteners. Also check for fuel
or oil leaks.
Engine Side, Fuel, Oil and Coolant (Refer to the Engine
Instruction Manual)
Air Cleaner
Every 50 hours: Remove air cleaner element and clean heavy
duty paper element with kerosene, or foam element with
liquid detergent and hot water . Wrap f oam element in a cloth
and squeeze dry. For heavy duty paper element, wipe
excess kerosene with towel.
Fuel Addition
Add diesel fuel (the grade may vary according to season
and locations). Always pour through the mesh filter.
Removing Water from the T ank
After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulate
in the bottom of the tank. Occasionally remove the drain
cock and drain the contents. During cold weather , the greater
the empty volume inside the tank, the easier it is for water
to condense. This can be reduced by always keeping the
tank as full as possible.
Cleaning the Fuel Strainer
Clean the fuel strainer if it contains dust or water. Remove
dust or water in the strainer cap and wash it in diesel. Securely
fasten the fuel strainer cap so that fuel will not leak. Check
the fuel strainer every 200 hours of operation or once a month.
Check Oil Level
Check the crankcase oil level prior to each use, or when the
fuel tank is filled. Insufficient oil may cause severe damage
to the engine. Make sure the generator is level. The oil level
must be between the two notches on the dipstick as shown
in Figure 39 on page 43.
Generator Storage
For storage of the generator for over 30 days, the following
is required:
"
Drain the fuel tank completely.
"
Run the engine until the fuel completely consumed.
"
Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill
with fresh oil.
"
Stop the engine at the compression point.
"
Clean all external parts of the generator with a cloth.
"
Cover the generating set and store in a clean, dry place.
Air Removal
If air enters the fuel injection system of a diesel engine,
starting becomes impossible. After running out of fuel, or
after disassembling the fuel system, bleed the system
according to the following procedure.
To restart after running out of fuel, turn the key switch to the
“START” position for 15-30 seconds. Tr y again, if needed.
This unit is equipped with an automatic air bleeding system.
Service Daily
If engine is operating in very dusty and dry grass conditions,
a clogged air cleaner will result in high fuel consumption,
loss of power and excessive carbon buildup in the
combustion chamber .
