Notice the preceding tables give two (2) different units of
measuring fuel pressure. The first is with a pressure gauge
calibrated in ounces per square inch. The second and most
accurate is the use of a simple water manometer. A manometer
is calibrated in inches of water column.

LP LIQUID WITHDRAWAL SYSTEMS

When installing a unit equipped the LP liquid withdrawal a
primary regulator is not required on the supply tank. The supply
line is connected to a liquid withdrawal valve on the supply tank
and ran directly to the fuellock strainer mounted on the engine
generator set. Normally a 3/8 inch copper line is acceptable for
this type of fuel installation. You must be sure that the valve you
have connected to on the supply tank is in fact a liquid supply
valve and has a drop tube inside the tank that is pulling fuel from
the bottom of the supply tank. Before starting the unit you must
confirm that you have a good liquid supply at the unit. Engine
generators sets equipped for liquid withdrawal will not run
properly when supplied with high pressure vapor fuel.

LUBRICATION

Before starting the engine, check the oil level in the crankcase. If
it is low, refill to the full mark with the proper weight/grade of oil
as recommended by the engine manufacturer’s maintenance
instructions. The necessity of using the correct oil, and keeping
the crankcase full cannot be over emphasized. Failure to use
the proper oil and keep the crankcase properly filled will cause
excessive engine wear and shorten its useful life.

COOLANT

Before starting the engine, check the coolant level in radiator. If it
is low, refill as specified in the engine manufacturer’s mainte-
nance instructions. The radiator should be filled to about 1 inch
below the filler neck.For additonal information on engine coolant
requirements see engine manufacturer’s maintenance instruc-
tions.

Size of pipe normally required for generators operating on
NATURAL/LP gas.

up to 25 feet* over 25 feet*

* Allow an additional 3 feet for each standard elbow. Do not

use ‘street ells’ (restrictive)*

**** CAUTION ****

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE - Be careful when sealing gas joints.
Excessive sealing compound can be drawn into the solenoid,
regulator or carburetor causing an engine malfunction.

FUEL PRESSURE (vapor system)

Correct fuel pressure cannot be stressed enough. The most
common cause for inoperative systems is an inadequate or
incorrect fuel pressure. Performance of the engine is in direct
relation to the correctness of the fuel system. Shown below is a
block diagram of a typical L.P. or N.G. Installation.
