1.Maintenance—Specification of fuel, lubricating oil and coolant

• Natural Gas: at least 70% methane by volume or have a heating

value of 950-1100 BTUs per standard cubic foot

Fuel • LPG: minimum of 90% propane, maximum of 5% propylene, and

maximum 5% of other gases
• Wellhead gas(emergency only, WP06 naturally aspirated only):
have a heating value of 700-2362 BTUs per standard cubic foot

• Recommends using a straight weight or multi-weight low ash

Oil content oil specifically formulated for Natural Gas Engines

• Specific weight depends on operating temperatures: (10W-30 : -
25 to 30℃), (15W-40 : -20 to 40℃), (20W-50 : -15 to 45℃)

• recommends using a 50/50 mixture of fully formulated Ethylene

Coolant Glycol or fully formulated Propylene Glycol coolant and distilled
water

1.Maintenance—Daily check
1.Check engine oil level 3. Check operation conditions
❖Check hoses, clamps, pipes for loose
connection or leak.
❖Check connectors for loose connection.
❖Check harness for cut, short, corrosion
or abrasions.
❖Check belt for loose or fraying.
❖Assure battery voltage is ≥12v each.
2.Check coolant level
4. Check oil pressure

Min 55 300
Max 84 600

Caution : Never remove radiator

or top tank cap when coolant is
hot!

1.Maintenance—Replace lubricating oil and oil filter element

Engine model Oil refill volume Material details

WP06 25L (6.6 Gal) Recheck dipstick 1 filter element and 1 O-ring

Replace oil filter element:

1.Drain oil completely.
2.Remove oil filter cover.
3.Remove oil filter and O-ring.
4.Install new filter and O-ring (apply a thin coat of
motor oil to o- ring before installing)
5.Install filter cover and tighten to 40N.m.
6.Fill new oil and run engine for 5 minutes, check
for leaks.

2. Key point of assembly—Gear timing

Rotate the crankshaft until 0 tick on timing gear is closest to camshaft, install
camshaft timing gear, make sure 0 tick of timing gear is engaged with 0 tick of
crankshaft gear.

0 tick of camshaft
timing gear should
be engaged with 0
tick of crankshaft
gear.

2. Key point of assembly—Signal generator

1. Rotate the crankshaft to “OT” mark, make sure the first piston is on the top
dead center of compression stroke.
2. Install the signal generator and adjust angle of the fluted disc until its TDC mark
points at the center of the phase sensor and the predetermined ignition angle is
reached.
3. Tighten the locknut (80～100N·m) on the signal generator fluted disc.
Note: the correct value of the gap between the fluted disc and sensor is 0.8~1.5mm

1th piston@ TDC of Fluted disc TDC mark points at the

compression stroke center of phase sensor.

2. Key point of assembly—Connecting rod and piston

Key points:
1.The connecting rod oblique split and piston cooling oil gallery inlet should be in
the same direction.
2.The connecting rod oblique split and oil cooler should be in the same direction.
3.The torque of connecting rod bolt is :30N·m + (60±4°), (Reach 85 to
135N·m at the same time)
NOTE: 1.The connecting rod bolts can’t be re-used.
2. The opening of piston rings should not overlap.

Adjust the angle of piston

Oil inlet and the rings to make sure the Face to oil cooler
oblique split should be opening not overlap.
in same direction
