INSTATTATION

If the electric generating plant is to operate properly, it
must be correctly installed. This manual gives some
of the more important aspects of installatio[. For more
details, a Technical Bulletin (T-012) is available frorn
Onan.
Ventilatiort is the most importantfactor to consider. The
unit must have enough cooling air to operate safely and
efficiently. The heated air must be disposed of to keep
the engine frorn overheating and losing power. For the
NH plalt tunning at 1800tpm, the amount of air dis-
charged is 750cfm. The minimum free air inlet with no
filter or restriction is 140 sq. in.
Onan Vacu-Flo cooled units are specifically designed
for mounting in small compartments (where proper
cooling is difficult) and are equipped to provide suf-
ficient cooling air and adequate disposition of heated
air. With this type of cooling, a centrifugal fan in a
scroll housing pulls cooling air into the compartment

and over the cooling fins and surfaces of the eneine.

Heated air is expelled through a single discharge and
away from the unit and installatton area. 6.VIBRATION ISOLATOR

The compartmentitself should be of vapor tight design
and completely independent of living quarters. The
interior Iining should be fireproof. A sheet metal cover-
ed compartmentmay be readily sealed and lends itself
easily to treatment. The set may have to be removed
fot service, so nrakethe door large enough to facilitate
removal of the unit,

The compartment location is determined by physical

size, access opening and most importalt, best mounting
support. Allow 2" clearance on a1l sides of the unit
for rocking on mounts.

POSITIONING
The following should be considered for accessibility
when mounting the unit in a compartment. (Position
so operating instructions and nameplate are visible
and/or install an accessible nameplate. data decal
or sticker. )

I. Make air discharge duct as short as possible.

Position so exhaust heated air is flot drawn into
cool air inlet.
2, Air cleaner should be easy to lemove and service. _TO ALLOW U NIT

3. Battery or batteries must be accessible for service. MOUNTS
4. Oil fill tube cap should be easy to reach.
5. The control box switch should be visible.
6. Provide space for muffler.
7. Oi1 drain should be readily accessible.
8. Cylindet head should be readily accessible for
servtce. ..FAIL-SAFE''
9. Rope stait sheave should be accessible.

MOUNTING
The best method of mounting is to attach the plant to a
.nounting platfotm using Onan vibration isolators. See
Figure 2. The vibration isolators must be propetly in-
stalled to minirnize vibtation. The Onan mou[ts are a
"fail-safe" type with mounting bolts that prevent the
unit from breaking loose if the mounts are damaged.
The mounting base should be fastened directly to the
supporting ftame. Channel, box or angle iron can be
used for a mounting base ftame. This will provide the
greatest support, plus a base sealed against air, dirt
and sound. Do not use sheet metal or thin Dlate without
a supporting frame.
Plywood is vulnetable to climatic
elerrenls, will tend to become oil
s<>aked,and is not [ireprool.
The supporting base or platform must be strong enough
to withstand the shock from sharp turns, bumps, holes,
etc. which accompany mobile applications. Brace the
mounting platform to eliminate any chance of the plat-
form bowing or bending.
FUEL SUPPLY (GASOLINE)
Install a separatefuel tank for the unit. If the plant has
to be connected to the vehicle supply tank, do not tee
off the vehicle supply line. The generatiflg plant rnust
have a separate fuel line because the more powerful
vehicle fuel pump will starve the generating unit for
gasoline.
FUEL LINES
Use annealed copper ot seamless steel tubing and
flated connections. Run fuel lines, at the top level
of the tank to a point as close to the engine as possible,
to reduce the danger oI fuel siphoning out of the tank
if the line should break. Install lines so they are acces-
sible at all times ard protected from mechanical injury.
Use nonferrous metal sttaps, without sharp edges, to
secure the fuel lines.
EXHAUSTSYSTEM
Observe the following when installing the plant's ex-
haust system:

11

1 . Construct exhaust system to prevent damage from
leakage and vibtation. Use automotivetype hangels
and connections under the vehicle.
2. Use an insulating thimble where exhaust piping
passes through a partition or floor of flammable
rnaterial. Exhaust lines may be asbestos wrapped
to reduce heat radiation within the compadment.
3 . Terminate the exhaust outlet aft of the set com-
partment and extend to perimeter of vehicle so
DEADLY exhaust fumes will not enter vehicle
undet ordinary conditions of driving or parking.
Do not install the exhaust outlet
closer than three feet lrom the
Iiller spout- Do not pipe exhaust into
lasoline
Vacu-Flo sctoll.
When installing mufflers, other than those supplied
with the unit or if the exhaust system is excessively
complicated, the exhaust back pressure should be
checked. Exhaust back pressureat rated load, measured
at the exhaust manifold, should not exceed 2 in. Hg.
(Mercury colurnn).Where a tapped hole is not provided,
the manifold and/or a pipe coupling may be drilled and
tapped. After measurementis made, plug the hole with
an ordinary pipe plug.

BATTERY
CONNECTION
Connect the positive (+) battery cable to the start
solenoid. Connect the negative (-) cable to the gener-
ator th.ough-bolt. Refer to Figure 3.
Do not disconnect the sta inE balleries
while the engine is runninp. The
.esultirg overvoltage will danage the electric choke
and other control components. Do not revetse battery
connections; doinS so ney damage the eleclrical sysfem.
In mobile applications where the generator is notmally
operated in ambient temperatures above OoF and the
battery is kept charged by frequent running of the unit,
a single 12volt battery of 74 amp/ht capacity minimum
is sufficient.
G R O U N D( G E N E R A T O RT O V E H I C L E )
A solderless terminal is provided between AC output
box and control on top side of unit. Connect a ground
between this terminal and clean, bare metal on vehicle
frame. See Figure 3.
LOAD WIRE CONNECTIONS
The set nameplate shows the electrical output rating
of the set in watts, volts and c5rcles. The wiring

OPERATION
BEFORESTARTING
Cronkcose Oil: Be sure the crankcase has been filled
with oil to the "FULL" mark on the oil level indicator.
Refer to the MAINTENANCE SECTION for the recom-
mended oil changes and cornplete lubricating oil re-
commendations.
Recomnended Fuel: Use clean, fresh, regular grade,
automotive gasoline. Do not use highly leaded prernium
t jrpes.
Fot new engines, the most satisfactory results are
obtained by using nonleadedgasoline. For older engines
that have previously used leaded gasoline, heads must
be taken off and all lead deposits removed from engine
before switching to nonleaded gasoline.

Push the Start-Stop switch to its .,START,, position.
Release the switch as soon as the eogine starts.
If the engine fails to sta.t at first try, inhibitor oil used
at the factory may have fouled the spark plugs. Remove
the plugs, clean in a suitable solvent, dry thoroughly
and install. Heavy exhaust smoke when the engirie is
first started is norhal and is caused bv the inhibitor
oil.
APPLYING LOAD
If practical, allow u[it to warm up before connecting
a heavy load. Continuous generator overloading may
cause high operating temperaturesthat can damagethe
windings. Keep the load within the nameplate rating.
STOPPING

Satisfactory engine performance is largely dependent
upon corect adjustments. However, adjustments can-
not fully compensatefor low engine powet due to wear,
etc. If ttouble develops, follow an orderly procedure
to determine the cause before making any adjustment.
Refer to the TroubleshootingChart for help in checking
causes of troubles which may occur,

CARBURETO
ARDJUsTMENT
The carburetor (Figuie 8) has a high speed fuel main
adjustment (needle A) and a fuel idle adjustment
(needle B).
Adjust the calburetor to obtain the corfect fuel-to-air
mixture for smooth, efficient operation. The carburetor
should be adjusted in two steps - first the load adjust-
ment and then the idle adjustment.
IMPORTANT; II the carburetot is completely out ol
adjustment so tfie enlline will not tun, open both needle
valves 1 to 1-1/2 tutns otl their seats to permit starting.
Do not force the needle yalyes a{ainsf tleir seats. Tfiis
will bend the needle.
Before adjusting the carburetor, be sure the ignition
s],stem is working properly and the governoris adjusted.
Then allow the engine to warm up.
1. With no load, turn the idle adjustment out until
the engine speed drops slightly below normal.
Then turn the needle in until the engine speed
retums to normal.
2. Apply a full load to the ergine.
3. Carefully turn the main adjustmeot in until speed
drops slightly below normal. Then turn needle out
until speed returns to normal.
4. Release the governor mechanism to allow the
engifle to accelerate. If the engine accelerates
evenly and without a lag, the main adjustment
is correct. If not, adjust the needle outward about
l/2 tltn and again slow down the engine and
release the rnechanism.Continue until the ensine
accelerates evenly and without a tirne lag after
releasing the governor.
With the carburetor and governor adjusted, set the
throttle stop screw, Figure 8, to allow 1/32 inch clear-
ance to the stop pin with the engine operating at no
load, This prevents excessive hunting when a large
Ioad is suddenly removed.
To check float level, femove the entire main fuel adjust-
ment assembly ftom the float bowl (unscrew large nut
from the float bowl). The proper distance ftom the float
to the carburetor body is 1/8 inch, The float tab should
just touch the fuel inlet valve. Adjust by bending the
tab on the float. See Fieure 9.

Wheteengine speed is governorcontrolled, the governor
CHOKE is set at the factory to allow a nominal engine speed
of 1875rpm at no load operation. Proper governoradjust-

for accurate governor adjustment.

Check the governor armr linkage, throttle shaft and

A binding condition at any point will cause the govelrior

tion will be erratic. Work the arm back and forth several
times by hand while the engine is idle. If either of these
conditions exist, determine the cause and adjust or
replace parts as needed.
PROCEDURE
1. Adjust the carbutetor main jet forthe best fuel
mixture while operating the plant with a full rated
load connected,
2. Adjust the carburetor idle needle with no load
connected.
3, Adjust the length of the governor linkage.
4. Check the governor linkage and throttle shaft for
binding or excessive looseness.
5. Adjust the governor spring tension for rated speed
at no load operation (booster tempotarily discon-
nected).
6, Adjust the govemor sensitivity.
7. Recheck the speed adjustme[t.
8. Set the carburetor throttle stop screw.
9. Adjust booster (where used).
Linkoge: The engine starts at wide open throttle. The
length of the linkage cofftecting the governo!arm to the
throttle arm is adjusted by rotating the ball joint hous-
ing. Adjust the length so that with the engine stopped
and tensioo on the governor spring, the stop on the
carburetorthrottle lever is 1,/32 inch from the carburetor
stop boss. This setting allows irnrnediatecontrol by the
governor after starting and synchronizes travel of the
governor alm and the throttle shaft.
Speed Adiustrneni: The speed at which the engine
operates is determined by the tension applied to the
governor spring. Increasing spring tension increases
engine speed. Decreasing tension decreases elrgine
speed. The no-load speed of the engine should be
slightly higher than the speed requirements of the
connected load.
For example: If the connected load is to turn at 1800
rpm, set the no-load speed of the engine at 1875rprn
(approx.). Check the speed with a tachometer.
lf a speed adjustrnentis needed,turn the speed adjust-
ing rlut in to increase the speed or out to dectease the
speed. See Figure 11.
SENSITIVITY
ADJUSTMENT
The engine speed drop from no-load to full-load should
ttot be less than 60rpm. Check the engine speed with
no-load connected, and again after connecting full-load.
The sensitivity of the governor depends upon the posi-
tion of the arm end of the goveinor spring. A series of
holes irt the govelnor arm provides fot adjustment. To
increase sensitivity, rnove the spring toward the gover-
nor shaft. To dectease sensitivity, move the spring
toward the linkage end of the governor arm.
If the setting is too sensitive, a hurting condition
(altemate increase aod decrease in engine speed) will
20
!
result, If the setting is not sensitive enough, the speed
valiation between no-load and full-load conditions will
be too great, Therefore, the corlect sensitivity will
result in the most stable speed regulation without
causing a surge condition.
Al.ways recheck the speed adjustment after a sensi-
tivity adjustrnerlt, Increasing sensitivity will cause a
slight decrease in speed and will lequire a slight
increase i!'t the governor spring tensioo,
SPEEDBOOSTER
ADJUSTMENT
Afier satisfactory performance under various loads is
attained by governor adjustments without the booster,
connect the booster. Connect the extemal booster
spring to the bracket on the governor linkage. With the
plant operating at no-load, slide the bracket on the
governorlinkage to a position where there is no tension
on the extelnal sprilg.
Apply a full rated electrical load to the generator. The
output voltage should stabilize at nearly the same
ieading at fullload as for no-load opetation. The speed
may remain about the same o! increase when the load
is applied, resulting in L ot 2heftz higher than the no-
load frequency (lhertz is equal to 60rpn} If the rise
in ftequency is more than 2 hertz, lessen the interflal
spring tension. If there is a drop in frequency, increase
the internal booster spring tension. To increase the
te[sio[, pull out the spri[g bracket and move the pin
to a different hole.
With the booster disconnected, a maximum drop of
5hertz from oo-load to full-load is norrnal. With the
booster in operation, a maximum increase of 2 hertz
from no-load to 2/3 load is normal. A drop of thertz
at l/4 load, is permissible, giving an overall spread
of 3 hertz maximum.
TAPPET
ADJUSTMENT
The engine is equipped with adjustable tappets. To
make a valve adjustment, remove the valve covers.
Crank the engine slowly by hand until the left hand
intake valve, when facing the flywheel, opens and
closes. Co[tinue about 1,/4 turn u[til the mark o'l the
flywheel and the TC mark on the gear cover are in
line. This should place the left hand piston in the
necessary position to obtain correct valve adjustment.
Cotrect valve clearances ate .003 for intake and .010 for
exhaust- For each valve, the gauge should just pnss
between the valve stem and valve tappet (Figurc 12).
To correct the valve clearance,turn the adjusting screw
as needed to obtain the right clearance. The screw is
self-locking.
To adjust the valves on the right hand cylinder, crank
the engine over one complete revolution and again line
up the mark on the flywheel and the TC rnark on the
gear cover. Then follow the adjustment given fot the
valves of the left hand cylinder.

tion and long selvice life from your Onan unit. Neglecting loutine maintenance can result in premature
failure or permanent damage to your equipment. The Onan Operatot's Manual sent with the product con-
tains recommendedmaintenance schedules and Drocedures.

Maintenance is divided into two categories:

1. Operator Maintenance . . . . . performed by the operato(,

2. Critical Maintenance . . . . . . performed only by qualified service personnel.

Regular maintenaflce will help you avoid sudden and costly repairs in the future. Adequate evidence of
this scheduled maintenance must be offered when applying for a warranty claim.

manufacturer's recommendations. If the owner expeliences any diflV with such items as mounting,
ventilation, exhaust location, fuel lines, wiring, etc., he should imm'EEiately contact the company from

Distributor and his Approved or Registered Service Dealers may beGle to reme-dycertain installation
difficulties, such repair work is not considered Onan warranty and there u'ill be a charge for this service.
