Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance and repair are caused by failure to
observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially
hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This
person should also have the necessary training, skills and tools to perform these functions properly.
Improper operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair of this product can be dangerous and
could result in injury or death.
Do not operate or perform any lubrication, maintenance or repair on this product, until you have
read and understood the operation, lubrication, maintenance and repair information.
Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual and on the product. If these hazard
warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons.
The hazards are identified by the “Safety Alert Symbol” and followed by a “Signal Word” such as
“DANGER”, “WARNING” or “CAUTION”. The Safety Alert “WARNING” label is shown below.
The meaning of this safety alert symbol is as follows:
Attention! Become Alert! Your Safety is Involved.
The message that appears under the warning explains the hazard and can be either written or
pictorially presented.
Operations that may cause product damage are identified by “NOTICE” labels on the product and in
this publication.
Perkins cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. The
warnings in this publication and on the product are, therefore, not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure,
work method or operating technique that is not specifically recommended by Perkins is used,
you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and for others. You should also ensure that the
product will not be damaged or be made unsafe by the operation, lubrication, maintenance or
repair procedures that you choose.
The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are on the basis of information that
was available at the time that the publication was written. The specifications, torques, pressures,
measurements, adjustments, illustrations, and other items can change at any time. These changes can
affect the service that is given to the product. Obtain the complete and most current information before
you start any job. Perkins dealers or Perkins distributors have the most current information available.
When replacement parts are required for this
product Perkins recommends using Perkins
replacement parts.
Failure to heed this warning can lead to premature failures, product damage, personal injury or
death.

There may be several specific warning signs on your
engine. The exact location and a description of the
warning signs are reviewed in this section. Please
become familiar with all warning signs.
Ensure that all of the warning signs are legible. Clean
the warning signs or replace the warning signs if
the words cannot be read or if the illustrations are

the warning signs. Do not use solvents, gasoline, or
other harsh chemicals. Solvents, gasoline, or harsh
chemicals could loosen the adhesive that secures the
warning signs. The warning signs that are loosened
could drop off of the engine.
Replace any warning sign that is damaged or
missing. If a warning sign is attached to a part of the
engine that is replaced, install a new warning sign on
the replacement part. Your Perkins dealer or your

Do not touch any part of an operating engine.
Allow the engine to cool before any maintenance
is performed on the engine. Relieve all pressure in
the appropriate system before any lines, fittings or
related items are disconnected.
Coolant
When the engine is at operating temperature, the
engine coolant is hot. The coolant is also under
pressure. The radiator, the heat exchanger, the
heater and lines contain hot coolant. Any contact with
hot coolant or with steam can cause severe burns.
Allow cooling system components to cool before the
cooling system is drained.
Check the coolant level after the engine has stopped
and the engine has been allowed to cool. Ensure
that the filler cap is cool before removing the filler
cap. The filler cap must be cool enough to touch with
a bare hand. Remove the filler cap slowly in order
to relieve pressure.
Cooling system conditioner contains alkali. Alkali can
cause personal injury. Do not allow alkali to contact
the skin, the eyes, or the mouth.

Correct grounding for the engine electrical system
is necessary for optimum engine performance
and reliability. Incorrect grounding will result in
uncontrolled electrical circuit paths and in unreliable
electrical circuit paths.
Uncontrolled electrical circuit paths can result in
damage to the crankshaft bearing journal surfaces
and to aluminum components.
The connections for the grounds should be tight and
free of corrosion. The engine alternator must be
grounded to the negative “-” battery terminal with
a wire that is adequate to handle the full charging
current of the alternator.
The power supply connections and the ground
connections for the engine electronics should always
be from the isolator to the battery.

Product Description
The Perkins Engines were developed in order to
provide gas engines for generator set applications.
The engines have the ability to burn a wide variety of
gaseous fuels.
Fuel System
The fuel is delivered to the zero pressure regulator.
The gas must be at a constant pressure and the gas
must be stable. The pressure must be within a range
of1.5to5kPa(0.21to0.72psi).Higherpressurewill
need to be reduced with an additional gas regulator.
g01215253
(19) Secondary water pump
The venturi must be selected for the engine. This
selection is based on the composition of the gas that
will be used.
Any change in the composition of the gas may require
a change to the venturi.
Theventuriislocatedinthegasmixerbody
immediately before the turbocharger. As air is
accelerated through the venturi gas is mixed with the
air. This mixture is compressed by the turbocharger.
the mixture passes through the charge cooler and
into the inlet manifold. The speed and the load is
governed by an electronically controlled throttle valve.
The air/fuel ratio is adjustable by the main adjustment
screw. This screw is located on the gas mixer body
before the venturi. This is the only means of adjusting
the exhaust emissions at full load.

Ignition System
The engine is equipped with an Electronic Ignition
System (EIS). The EIS provides dependable firing
and low maintenance. The EIS provides precise
control of the following factors:
Voltage
•
Duration of the spark
•
Ignition timing
•
The TRS2 engine is equipped with protection from
detonation. The TRS1 engine may be equipped with
protection for detonation as an option.
The ignition timing is retarded when excessive
detonation is sensed. If detonation continues after full
retardation, then the engine must be shut down.
Lubrication System
The engine lubrication oil is supplied by a pump
that is driven by a gear. The oil is cooled and the
oil is filtered. A bypass valve provides unrestricted
flow of lubrication oil to the engine parts if the
oil filter elements become plugged. The bypass
valve will open if the oil filter differential pressure
reaches 34.4 to 48.2 kPa (5 to 7 psi). The engine oil
pressure operates in a range of 413.6 to 448.1 kPa
(60to65psi).
