Operation
Operation
The guidelines for operating the generator are outlined in the section.
The Welf-Air Cube generator is resiliently enclosed within an acoustically treated housing providing noise attenuation. A large access door enables ease of servicing and maintenance in a tight space.
The Welf-Air Cube is confi gured to be operated locally at the set but can be provided with an optional remote start controller.
The At-Set operation utilises a DSE3110 controller that monitors the engine condition and provides warning information about the generator.
If confi gured for remote start stop operation HGI recommend the use of the HGI CN222 remote start controller which has a simple push-button stop / start and programmable timer so that once started the generator will run for a specifi ed period and then shutdown. This is typically set at 1 hour.
NOTICEFor safety reasons, the battery Isolator should be set. It is recommended that this action is repeated when moving the generator or for long term storage.

Operation
Stopping
1. Switch off the electrical output and disconnect the load from the generator’s output.
2. Allow the generator to run off load for 2 minutes to cool down.
3. Press the red STOP button.
Emergency Stop
Pressing the emergency stop pushbutton will immediately stop the engine and prevent it from restarting.
The emergency stop button must only be used to stop the machine in an emergency and not to stop the set during normal operation.
To restart the generator, release the emergency stop button by twisting clockwise, reset the control module by pressing the red button, and start the generator by pressing the green Run button.
Stopping and Starting Remotely
To use the generator remotely the third party remote control panel will need to be connected to the Buca-neer 3 way socket on the control panel.
Once connected
1. Press the red Reset Button on the Engine Control module on the generator control panel.
2. Press the white Auto button on the generators DSE3110 control module.
Typically, the remote control panel will have run and stop buttons / switches. If using an HGI CN222 control panel: 3. To start, press the Green Run/Go button on
the remote control.
4. To stop press the Red Stop button on the remote control.
If the remote control panel has a timer facility (as with the HGI CN222) it will, typically, have been programmed to run the generator run for the preset time commencing once the Green button has been pressed.
If you should require generator power after the time has elapsed then press the green button once more to restart the timer.
Should you require to stop the generator from the remote control panel then press the Red button.
Output Connections
The generator is supplied with two 32A 230V output sockets. One is mounted on the control and the other to the rear of the set at panel level.
The generator also has 230V terminals
Connect the equipment to be powered (load) into the socket outlet or terminals. Check that the total load from all equipment connected does not exceed the generator rating.
Each output socket is individually protected by a 30A MCB (miniature circuit breaker). If the current being drawn through the socket exceeds this for a short time the MCB will trip. To reset the MCB when it has tripped remove the load from that socket, wait a few minutes and then reset.
The M10 brass stud next to the output sockets should be connected to an external earth point or to an earth spike. An earth spike can be supplied as an optional extra and should be driven at least 600 mm into soil.
The RCD should be tested by pressing the TEST button and checking that the RCD trips and has to be reset while the generator is running. This should be done every day.
NOTICEOperating the generator at low load levels for long periods of time may cause excessive smoking, reduce effi ciency due to carbon build-up and cause other engine problems.
Do not overload the generator as this will cause overheating, and shorten the life of the generator.

Operation
Shutdown Protections
The generator is fi tted with the following protection devices that will shut down the generator in the event of a fault. They are indicated by LED’s on the engine control module.
Charge Fail. Operates if the battery is not charging, this could be caused by parasitic drain (leaving engine control module illuminated), generator inactivity, or faulty alternator charging.
Low Oil Pressure: This operates if the oil pressure falls below a safe level. This can be caused by a lack of oil, wrong type of oil or high temperature. Check and top up the oil level as necessary. During starting, the alarm is held off for 10 seconds to allow the oil pressure to build up to normal running level. The engine will not crank if there is no low oil pressure signal prior to starting.
Low Fuel Level: The fuel gauge also incorporates a low fuel shutdown facility. The set will shut down when the level falls to approximately 10-12% of its capacity, thus eliminating the need to bleed the system at restart.
High Engine Temperature. If the temperature is out side the value programmed into the controller the generator will close down.

Safety Precautions
Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you should perform a given task.
WARNINGFailure to properly follow maintenance instructions and precautions can cause serious injury or death.Always follow the procedures and precautions in the operations manual. Where third party equipment is incorporated into the generator always refer to their guides for familiarisation
• Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. This will eliminate several potential hazards:
• Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools and skills required.
Maintenance Routine
The following procedures refer to the common maintenance items for servicing your generator.
Check and Replenish Fuel
Refer to Pre-Operational Checks to check the fuel level. Replace the fuel fi lter every 6 months or 400hrs.
Drain and fl ush the fuel tank periodically to prevent the build-up of contaminants, particularly when the generator has operated in high humidity and dusty environments.
Check and Replenish Engine Oil
Refer to Pre-Operational Checks to check the engine oil level and replenish.
Replace the engine oil after the fi rst 50hrs and then every 3 months or 200 hours operation. When changing the oil or topping up, it is recommended to use oil of grade 10W30.
Drain the oil in the engine while the engine is warm.Warm oil drains quickly and completely.
Place the generator on a level surface, and place a suitable container under the generator at the service access panel side of the generator.
Remove the oil fi ller cap / dipstick.
Harrington Generators International
29 498-1058Welf-Air 10kVA Cube
Maintenance
Drain the oil into the suitable container from the oil drain fi tting on the canopy’s base.
Follow HSE recommendations regarding the handling and disposal of contaminated oil products.
Kubota recommend the oil fi lter element is a replacement type, and should be replaced at every oil change (6 months / 200 hours). HGI suggest a change interval every 3 months / 200 hours along with oil change.
Replace components in reverse order.
Fill with recommended oil to the max level shown on the dipstick
Check Coolant Level
Check the coolant level daily and top up if necessary.
Check the radiator and hoses for signs of damage or leaks. Check the cap and seal for signs of damage. Clean the radiator matrix of leaves or similar debris.
Check the coolant level when the engine is cool and stationary and on a level surface.
The radiator should be fi lled to typically 1 cm above the core of the radiators matrix. The expansion bottle’s coolant level should be fi lled as marked on the expansion bottle or label between high and low level marks.
Replace coolant every 12 months or as specifi ed.
Top or change with a Coolant Mixture in line with the Engine manufacturers guidelines. Never use neat antifreeze.
DO NOT use the expansion bottle to decide if the radiator needs topping up.
Drain the waste fl uids into suitable waste containers, and follow HSE recommendations regarding the han-dling and disposal of contaminated oil products. Check the radiator and hoses for signs of damage or leaks.
Air FIlter
The Air Filter can be a of single or twin element type.
To clean or replace the air fi lter:
1. Slacken off the two air
(a)
fi lter mounting bolts (a) under the air fi lter housing (do not remove the bolts)
2.
3. Slacken off the hose clamp and remove the inlet hose from the cylinder head manifold .
4. Push the air fi lter housing forward to remove from the slots in the brackets.
5. Remove fi lter from the housing, check and replace in line with engine manufacturers guidelines.
6. Check the hose between the air fi lter and the engine is secure and not damaged.

necessary.
Battery
The battery is a maintenance free unit and should not require the electrolyte being topped up.
Check that the positive and negative terminals are tight and secure, and free from corrosion. Lightly coat them with petroleum jelly or similar to protect from corrosion.
Check that the battery securing strap is tight and the battery is held fi rmly.
Check RCD Trip The earth leakage unit (RCD) has a self-test button which can be used to apply a fault and to check that the unit trips out when the generator is running.
Check Operation of MCBs
No maintenance can be carried out on MCBs other than a physical check to ensure the MCB latches in the On position and no sign of external damage can be seen.
Adjust Valve Clearance
Valve Clearances should be checked after the fi rst 12 months or 800hrs and reset in accordance with the engine manufacutrer’s guidelines. Refi t the rocker cover with a new gasket.
Alternator
Ensure that the cooling air vents do not become blocked by dirt, debris etc. and that the cooling fan is not damaged.
Control Module Safety Shut Down
This module will prevent the generator from starting or shut it down if faults occur. Check the following:-
Hours Run Counter; confi rm counter is working.
Low Oil Pressure; with the engine off, remove the connection to the normally closed oil pressure switch and attempt to start the engine. The Control Module should see an open circuit representing oil pressure when there should be none and prevent starting.
With the engine running short the oil pressure switch to the generator chassis to simulate loss of oil pres-sure and the module should shut down the engine and show an alarm.
Low Fuel Level; The sensor is connected to the low oil alarm circuit. With the engine running allow the fuel tank to run out of fuel and the engine should stop and the Low Oil alarm should be seen. Refi ll with fuel and the engine should start and run normally.
Battery Charger
Stop and start the engine a few times if needed to draw off the battery.
Start the engine and allow running for 5 minutes, then checking that the battery charger is delivering at least 13.2V DC into the battery.Starter Motor
These are normally sealed for life but should be inspected and serviced in accordance with the engine manufacturers instructions.
Exhaust System
Inspect the exhaust system and silencer at the fl exible sections and joints in particular.
Check the exhaust is adequately supported and secured. Check for leaks and signs of burning of the insulation. Replace insulation if necessary.
If the engine has run on low load for a considerable period the exhaust may be sooted up. Run the engine on low load for 10 minutes and gradually increase to full load for 30 minutes to blow and burn any soot out of the exhaust. Care should be taken that hot soot does not land on combustible material.
Canopy
Check security of fi xings and fasteners on the machine. Lubricate hinges and latches with light machine oil.
Ensure that the inlet and outlet louvres are kept clean and unimpeded at all times. Check that no sound insulation has become loose and obstructed them.
General Inspections Inspect generally for:-
Fuel and Oil Leaks: Look for excessive oil in the base tray. Look for weeps from fuel hoses and connections. Check the insulation is dry and not contaminated with fuel or oil.
Harrington Generators International
31 498-1058Welf-Air 10kVA Cube
Maintenance
Worn or Failed Anti Vibration Mounts: When the side panels are removed rock the engine and check all four anti vibration mounts are fl exing slightly and have not failed or broken up.
Damaged or missing insulation and seals: Generally look at the sound insulation and seals and check it is still securely fi tted and has not deteriorated.
Missing Safety Labels: These labels are a mandatory safety requirement and if any are missing or not easy to read they should be replaced. Full details of all labels are contained in this manual. A replacement label kit is available.
Chaffi ng or Stretching of Cables: Inspect all cables and connections and look for obvious signs of wear or damage.
Correct sealing / fi tting of exhaust pipe: Remove the top panel and check the exhaust pipe is correctly fi tted and sealed at its mounting fl ange with no signs of blowing.
Lifting Points: Inspect the lifting points for obvious signs of wear, damage or distortion.
Signs of Over Heating: Look for obvious deterioration due to heat and investigate the cause and rectify as necessary.
Fuel Cap: Check the cap seals correctly. Check for obvious signs of fuel spillage.
Electrical:• Inspect sockets, and replace if damaged or
contact pins are burnt. • Check all wiring is secure and not damaged. • Check the output voltage and frequency are
correct. • Check the earth continuity between the socket
earth pins and the generator frame.
Run on ¼, ½, ¾ then full load Operating the generator at low load levels for extended periods can result in high levels of carbon build up in the engine and exhaust system which can lead to excessive smoking, reduced effi ciency and overheating. Looking at the silencer’s outlet will give some indication this has happened.
After each service the generator should be run fi rst on ¼, then ½, then ¾ and fi nally full load using a load bank or a similar load like an electric fan heater, to burn out any deposits of soot in the engine and silencer.
Each level of load should be applied for at least 10 minutes or until the exhaust is clear of soot and smoke. If you suspect the engine is badly sooted, DO NOT apply full load but build the load up gradually.
It should be anticipated that hot soot will be expelled from the engine during this procedure and it should be done in a safe place away from combustible material and under supervision at all times.

Transportation / Storage
Transportation and Storage
NOTICEDo not lay the generator on its side when moving, storing, or
operating it. Oil may leak and damage the engine or your property
If the generator has been used, allow it cool for at least 15 minutes before loading the generator on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some material. To prevent fuel spillage when transporting, the generator should be secured upright in its normal operating position, with the engineControl Module switched OFF.
Take care not to drop or strike the generator when transporting. Do not place heavy objects on the generator.
Item DescriptionEngine: Turn the Engine Control Module “OFF”
Short Term typically up to 6 months:
Do not run the generator out of fuel. If the engine runs out of fuel the fuel system will become air locked and will have to be bled before the engine will restart. Leave a small quantity of fuel in the fuel tank. Drain any water from the water separator / fi lter. Run the engine for a few minutes and drain the warm oil and fi ll with new oil as for a normal service. Disconnect battery and grease terminals with petroleum jelly.
Long Term over 6 months:
For long term storage each engine manufacturer will have their own recommendations typically:
1. Replace engine oil with a special inhibiting oil.2. Flush through fuel system and leave full with a special inhibiting compound.3. Spray connectors in the loom and plug in sensors with Vaporol Inhibitor or similar.
Please contact HGI for further details.Alternator: No special requirements other than store in a dry well ventilated place.
If the generator has been stored for a considerable period of time e.g. several years the alternator insulation winding resistance should be checked as they can absorb moisture. The insulation resistance must be at least 2 MΏ (2 mega ohms). If it is less than this then the alternator windings can be dried out by placing the alternator in an oven at 60-70°C for a few hours with plenty of air movement. Generally if this procedure is required consider replacing the alternator.
Flashing the Alternator: if ther is no electrical output after long term storage the alternator may have lost it’s residual magnetism. There is a procedure to re-magnetise the alternator.
Please contact HGI for details.Electrical : No special requirements other than store in a dry well ventilated place.
General: Store in dry, well ventilated and dust free place.If the generator is to be stored long term it would be benefi cial to start and run the generator under electrical load for half an hour every three months and then store as above ( but no need to change the oil).

The normal process for claiming warranty on parts, is that the customer calls HGI Parts Dept. on 01629 821645 and request a WSR form (Warranty Service Repair form). The customer then completes and returns the form to [email protected] along with an order to purchase a replacement part at the current price. The customer is issued with an RMA number which must be attached to the faulty parts returned to HGI. When it is established that the part has a warrantable fault, the customer account will be credited to the value of the purchased replacement part. Any parts that are supplied FOC (at HGI discretion) are on condition that faulty parts are returned to the factory within 14 days of replacement and subject to factory examination for valid claims.
Equipment supplied for operation outside the UK mainland will normally be dealt as described in d) above.
Limited warranty applies in special circumstances where equipment operates in extreme environmental conditions and/or for extended periods. Consult the factory.
On-site and extended warranty terms are available which include Service Level Agreements for a target response time. Please contact the factory for details.
The Company will not be held responsible for consequential losses, or costs incurred by the customer during a warranty repair. The Company will not accept claims of compensation. The HGI Ltd warranty is provided in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied. HGI Ltd specifi cally disclaims any implied warranties of merchantability or fi tness for a particular purpose, except where such disclaimer is prohibited by law. If such disclaimer is prohibited by law, then implied warranties shall be limited in duration to the life of the Express warranty.
