Towing Safety Precautions
CAUTION :CAUTION :
CAUTION :
CAUTION :CAUTION :
Check with your county or state safety towing regulations department before towing your generator. Vehicle towing codes and regulations can vary from state to state.
To reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the generator on public roads, always make sure the trailer and the towing vehicle 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 trailer "gross vehicle weight rating" (GVWR).
ALWAYS inspect the hitch and coupling for 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.
ALWAYS make sure the trailer is equipped with a "Safety Chain".
ALWAYS attach trailer's safety chain to bumper of towing vehicle.
ALWAYS make sure the vehicle and trailer directional, backup, brake, and trailer lights are connected and are working properly.
The maximum speed (unless otherwise posted) for highway towing is 45 MPH. Recommended off-road towing is not to exceed 10 MPH or less, depending on type of terrain.

Remember periodic inspection of the trailer will ensure safe towing of the equipment and will prevent damage to the equipment and personal injury.
It is the purpose of this section to cover the major mainte­nance components of the trailer. The following trailer com­ponents will be discussed in this section:
Brakes
Tires
Lug Nut Torquing
Suspension
Electrical
Brake Troubleshooting Tables
Use the following definitions with reading Table 1.
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, hydraulic-surge and air.
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 measurement is from the ball hitch to the rear bumper (reflector).
5. Frame Width - This measurement is from fender to fender.
6. Jack Stand - Trailer support device with maximum pound requirement from the tongue of the trailer.
7. Coupler - Type of hitch used on the trailer for towing.
8. Tire Size - 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 (layers) 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 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 or 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). Please not that some trailers have 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 shocks 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.

DCA-10SPX3 — TRAILER SAFETY GUIDELINES
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 in 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.
Tire Wear/Inflation
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire life. Pressure should be checked cold before operation DO NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear. Table 2 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the causes and solutions of tire wear problems.
Suspension
The leaf suspension springs and associated components (Figure 2) 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
ALWAYS wear safety glasses when removing or installing force fitted parts. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.

DCA-10SPX3 — INSTALLATION
Outdoor Installation
Install the generator in a location where it is not exposed to rain or sunshine. Make sure the generator is on a secure level ground so that it cannot slide or shift around. Also install the generator in a manner so the exhaust will not be discharged in the direction of nearby homes.
The installation site must be away from excessive 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 cause excessive wear, to the engine parts and 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.
CAUTION :
Generator Grounding
To prevent 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 mm
b. Aluminum - 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) or larger.
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 protect the body from electrical shock.

) or larger.
2. When grounding the generator (Figure 12) connect the ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on
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 overheat.
Eliminate the danger of deadly carbon monoxide gas. Remember that exhaust fumes from any diesel engine are very poisonous if discharged in a closed room, but harmless if allowed to mix with the outside air. If the generator is installed indoors, you must make provisions from venting the engine exhaust to the outside of the building.
DO NOT cover ventilation areas on the enclosure. Covering the ventilation grids will cause the engine to overheat.
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.
NOTE
When connecting the generator to any buildings electrical system ALWAYS consult with a licensed electrician.

DCA-10SPX3 — PRE-SETUP
General Inspection Prior to Operation
The DCA-10SPX3 generator has been thoroughly inspected and accepted prior to shipment from the factory. However, be sure to check for damaged parts or components, or loose nuts and bolts, which could have occurred in transit.
Extension Cable
When electric power is to provided to loads (ie. power tools) at a distance from the generator, extension cables are used. Cables should be sized to allow for distance in length and amperage so that the voltage drop between the generator and point of use (load) is held to a minimum. Use Table 6 (cable selection guide) as a guide for selecting proper cable size.
Circuit Breaker
To protect the generator from an overload,
main
circuit breaker is provided to protect the UNV output from overload. In addition a 2-pole, 20 amp breaker is provided to protect the GFCI receptacle from overload. Make sure to switch both circuit breakers to the "OFF" position prior to starting the engine.
