DCA-400SPK — PRE-SETUP

Day-to-day addition of coolant is done from the reserve tank.

When adding coolant to the radiator, DO NOT remove the

radiator cap until the unit has completely cooled. See Table

12 for engine, radiator, and reserve tank coolant capacities.

Make sure the coolant level in the reserve tank is always

between the "H" and the "L" markings.

CAUTION :

When adding coolant or antifreeze to the

radiator, do not remove the radiator cap

until the unit has completely cooled.

Operation in Freezing Weather

When operating in freezing weather, be certain the proper

amount of antifreeze (Table 13) has been added.

CAUTION

Cleaning the Radiator

The engine may overheat if the radiator 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 necessary. See

maintenance section for instruction to cleaning/replacing air

cleaner.

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. See maintenance section on replacing

belts. To adjust tension:

1. Insert a bar between alternator and the cylinder block to

fix alternator in position. When fixing the alternator in

position, insert a wooden block between the bar and

alternator to prevent damage to the alternator.

2. Loosen bolts and nuts located on the alternator.

3. Move alternator with the bar so the deflection of the belt

is approx. 8mm.

4. Tighten the bolt and nuts to fix the alternator back to

position.

The fan belt tension is proper if the fan belt bends 7 to 10

mm (Figure 29) when depressed with the thumb as shown

below.

Figure 29. Fan Belt Tension

Never place hands near the belts or fan

while the generator set is running.
