Winter Operation; Cleaning And Maintenance - Scheppach DSE5500 Original Bedienungsanleitung

The load per phase must not exceed 1/3 of the total
generator power. The permissible imbalance shall not
exceed 20%. A load of only the first or second phase
results in a failure. The total load and current for all
three phases must not exceed the normal load and cur-
rent of the power generator.
10.2 Switch off the engine (Fig. 1, 3)
Allow the power generator to run for a short time (ap-
prox. 30 seconds) without load before switching it off
so that it can "cool down". To do so, switch off the con-
nected consumers.
1. Turn the ignition key (A) to the "OFF" position.
2. Disconnect the consumers from the device.
ATTENTION:
• Do not switch off the power generator when the con-
nected loads are in operation.
• Use the mechanical ON/OFF switch (27) only in an
emergency.
10.3 Overload protection - circuit breaker 230 V /
400 V (13) (Fig. 3)
The overload protection becomes active if the power
consumption is too high and switches off the 230 V or
400 V socket. The circuit breaker 230 V / 400 V (13) is
automatically set to the "OFF" position.
1. Switch the device off as described in section 10.2.
2. Disconnect the consumers from the device.
3. Wait a minute.
4. Set the 230 V / 400 V circuit breaker (13) to "ON".
Attention! Defective circuit breakers may only be re-
placed with identical circuit breakers with the same
power data. Contact customer service for this.
10.4 "RESET" button (14) for 12 V (Fig. 3)
If the overload protection has been triggered, the
"RESET" button (14) restores the output power of the
power generator. It is then not necessary to restart the
engine.
1. Wait a minute.
2. Press the "RESET" button (14).
10.5 Oil warning indicator (11) and automatic oil
cut-off (Fig. 3)
The oil warning indicator (11) lights up red when start-
ing. If enough oil has been filled in, the oil warning indi-
cator (11) goes out again after starting. If the oil level is
too low, the oil warning indicator (11) continues to light
up red and the device does not start.
36 | GB
If the oil level drops below the defined minimum level
during operation, the oil warning indicator (11) starts
to light up red. The automatic oil shut-off switches off
the power generator to prevent damage to the engine.
It is not possible to start the engine until the engine oil
has been filled (see chapter 9.2).
10.6

Winter operation

As the power generator is driven by a diesel engine,
special measures must be taken for winter operation.
The use of "winter diesel" is required if operating the
power generator in outside temperatures of -3° to -10°
Celsius. The switchover of the diesel fuel to "winter
diesel" takes place mainly at the end of October, dif-
fering from country to country. Ask your filling station
about the time to switchover to "winter diesel".
• If the power generator is operated regularly, meas-
ures do not need to be taken as the switchover to
"winter diesel" takes place automatically.
• If the power generator is not used for a long time in
the autumn, but will be used again in the winter, it is
recommended to keep the fuel tank almost empty.
Ask your filling station about the time to switch
over to "winter diesel" and fill the tank with "winter
diesel" before use in outdoor temperatures from -3°
to -10° Celsius.
• If, however, the diesel fuel "congeals", the power
generator must be brought into a room with temper-
atures of approx. +10° Celsius for approx. 12 hours.
• Empty the fuel tank (see chapter 11.8). If almost
empty or up to half empty, it is sufficient to fill up
with "winter diesel".
• Fill the fuel tank with "winter diesel".

11. Cleaning and maintenance

Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work,
switch off the engine and remove the ignition key (A)
from the ignition lock (10). Set the mechanical ON/OFF
switch (27) to the "STOP" position.
ATTENTION! Danger of burning! Wait until the de-
vice has cooled down before cleaning or maintenance.
ATTENTION!
Take any contaminated maintenance material and op-
erating materials to a collection point designated for
this purpose.
