saFety inFOrMatiOn  
engine SaFetY  
NOTICE  
DANGER  
„ never run engine without an air filter or with a dirty air  
filter.Severe engine damage may occur.Service air filter  
frequently to prevent engine malfunction.  
„ The engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon  
monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can  
cause death if inhaled.  
„ never tamper with the factory settings  
of the engine or engine governor. Damage  
to the engine or equipment can result  
if operating in speed ranges above the  
maximum allowable.  
„ The engine of this equipment  
requires an adequate free  
flow of cooling air. never  
operate this equipment in  
any enclosed or narrow area  
where free flow of the air is  
restricted. If the air flow is  
restricted it will cause injury to people and property and  
serious damage to the equipment or engine.  
„ Wet stacking is a common problem with diesel engines  
which are operated for extended periods with light or  
no load applied.When a diesel engine operates without  
sufficient load (less than 40% of the rated output), it will  
not operate at its optimum temperature. This will allow  
unburned fuel to accumulate in the exhaust system,  
which can foul the fuel injectors, engine valves and  
exhaust system, including turbochargers, and reduce  
the operating performance.  
Warning  
„ DO NOT place hands or fingers inside engine  
compartment when engine is running.  
In order for a diesel engine to operate at peak efficiency,  
it must be able to provide fuel and air in the proper ratio  
and at a high enough engine temperature for the engine  
to completely burn all of the fuel.  
„ never operate the engine with heat shields or  
guards removed.  
„ Keep fingers, hands hair and clothing away  
from all moving parts to prevent injury.  
Wet stacking does not usually cause any permanent  
damage and can be alleviated if additional load is  
applied to relieve the condition.It can reduce the system  
performance and increase maintenance. Applying an  
increasing load over a period of time until the excess  
fuel is burned off and the system capacity is reached  
usually can repair the condition. This can take several  
hours to burn off the accumulated unburned fuel.  
„ DO NOT remove the radiator cap while the  
engine is hot. High pressure boiling water  
will gush out of the radiator and severely  
scald any persons in the general area of  
the generator.  
„ DO NOT remove the coolant drain plug while the engine  
is hot. Hot coolant will gush out of the coolant tank and  
severely scald any persons in the general area of the  
generator.  
„ State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources  
Codes specify that in certain locations, spark arresters  
must be used on internal combustion engines that use  
hydrocarbon fuels.A spark arrester is a device designed  
to prevent accidental discharge of sparks or flames  
from the engine exhaust. Spark arresters are qualified  
and rated by the United States Forest Service for this  
purpose. In order to comply with local laws regarding  
spark arresters, consult the engine distributor or the  
local Health and Safety Administrator.  
„ DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while the  
engine is hot. Hot oil will gush out of the oil tank and  
severely scald any persons in the general area of the  
generator.  
CaUtion  
„ never touch the hot exhaust manifold,  
muffler or cylinder.Allow these parts to cool  
before servicing equipment.

installatiOn  
oUtDoor inStallation  
generator groUnDing  
Install the generator in a area that is free of debris,  
bystanders, and overhead obstructions. Make sure the  
generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot slide  
or shift around. Also install the generator in a manner so  
that the exhaust will not be discharged in the direction of  
nearby homes.  
To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to  
the equipment, it is important to provide a good EARTH  
ground.  
Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code  
(NEC) provides guide lines for proper grounding and  
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the  
grounding system of the building as close to the point of  
cable entry as practical.  
The installation site must be relatively free from moisture  
and dust.All electrical equipment should be protected from  
excessive moisture. Failure to do will result in deterioration  
of the insulation and will result in short circuits and  
grounding.  
NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following  
grounding requirements:  
1. Use one of the following wire types to connect the  
generator to earth ground.  
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive  
materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear to  
engine and alternator parts.  
a. Copper - 8 AWG (5.3 mm2) or larger.  
b. Aluminum - 6 AWG (8.4 mm2) or larger.  
CaUtion  
Pay close attention to ventilation when operating the  
generator inside tunnels and caves.The engine exhaust  
contains noxious elements. Engine exhaust must be  
routed to a ventilated area.  
2. When grounding the generator (Figure 2) connect the  
ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on  
the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the  
other end of the ground cable to earth ground.  
3. NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground rod  
should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground.  
inDoor inStallation  
Exhaust gases from diesel engines are extremely  
poisonous. Whenever an engine is installed indoors the  
exhaust fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine  
should be installed at least two feet from any outside wall.  
Using an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can  
cause excessive back pressure which will cause the engine  
to heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.  
NOTICE  
When connecting the generator to any buildings  
electrical system alWaYS consult with a licensed  
electrician.  
NOTICE  
This generator has a permanent bonding conductor  
between the generator stator windings and the frame.  
moUnting  
The generator must be mounted on a solid foundation (such  
as concrete) and set firmly on the foundation to isolate  
vibration of the generator when it is running.The generator  
must set at least 6 inches above the floor or grade level (in  
accordance to NFPA 110, Chapter 5-4.1).DO NOT remove  
the metal skids on the bottom of the generator. They are  
to resist damage to the bottom of the generator and to

GENERATOR  
open Delta exCitation SYStem  
This MQ Power generator (Figure 3) is a high quality  
portable (requires a trailer for transport) power source for  
telecom sites, lighting facilities, power tools, submersible  
pumps and other industrial and construction machinery.  
This generator is equipped with the state of the art “open-  
Delta” excitation system. The open delta system consist  
of an electrically independent winding wound among  
stationary windings of the AC output section.  
There are four connections of the open delta A, B, C and  
D. During steady state loads, the power from the voltage  
regulator is supplied from the parallel connections of A to  
B, A to D, and C to D. These three phases of the voltage  
input to the voltage regulator are then rectified and are the  
excitation current for the exciter section.  
engine operating panel  
The “Engine Operating Panel” is provided with the following:  
„ Tachometer  
„ Water Temperature Gauge  
„ Oil Pressure Gauge  
„ Charging Ammeter Gauge  
„ Fuel Level Gauge  
„ Panel Light/Panel Light Switch  
„ ECU Controller  
„ Engine Speed Switch  
„ Emergency Stop Button  
„ Emergency Stop Lamp  
„ Warning Lamp  
„ Pre-Heat Lamp  
„ Fuel Leak Detected Alarm Lamp  
„ Diagnostic Gauge  
When a heavy load, such as a motor starting or a short  
circuit occurs, the automatic voltage regulator (AVR)  
switches the configuration of the open delta to the series  
connection of B to C. This has the effect of adding the  
voltages of each phase to provide higher excitation to the  
exciter section and thus better voltage response during the  
application of heavy loads.  
The connections of the AVR to the AC output windings are  
for sensing only. No power is required from these windings.  
The open-delta design provides virtually unlimited excitation  
current, offering maximum motor starting capabilities.The  
excitation does not have a “fixed ceiling” and responds  
according the demands of the required load.  
generator Control panel  
The “Generator Control Panel” is provided with the following:  
„ Frequency Meter (Hz)  
engine  
This generator unit incorporates an John Deere 6068HF285  
diesel engine. This engine is designed to meet every  
performance requirement for the generator. Reference  
Table 2 for engine specifications.  
„ AC Ammeter (Amps)  
„ AC Voltmeter (Volts)  
„ Ammeter Change-Over Switch  
„ Voltmeter Change-Over Switch  
„ Voltage Regulator  
„ 3-Pole, 400 amp Main Circuit Breaker  
„ “Control Box” (located behind the Gen. Control Panel)

In keeping with MQ Power’s policy of constantly improving  
its products, the specifications quoted herein are subject  
to change without prior notice.  
eleCtriC governor SYStem  
TheelectricgovernorsystemcontrolstheRPMsoftheengine.  
When the engine demand increases or decreases, the  
governor system regulates the frequency variation to .25%.  
Over-Current Relay  
Starter Relay  
Voltage Selector Switch  
extenSion CaBleS  
oUtpUtterminal panel  
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or  
loads at some distance from the generator, extension cords  
are normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for  
distance in length and amperage so that the voltage drop  
between the generator and point of use (load) is held to  
a minimum. Use the cable selection chart (Table 6) as a  
guide for selecting proper extension cable size.  
The “Output Terminal Panel” is provided with the following:  
„ Three 120/240V output receptacles (CS-6369), 50A  
„ Three auxiliary circuit breakers, 50A  
„ Two 120V output receptacles (GFCI), 20A  
„ Two GFCI circuit breakers, 20A  
„ Five output terminal lugs (3Ø power)

major fault has occured. This condition will shudown  
the generator.  
6. Warning leD When lit (AMBER), indicates a engine  
parameter has exceeded its limits (minor fault). The  
generator will still run in this condition.  
Figure 4. Diagnostic Display  
The diagnostic display panel located inside the control  
box on the generator (Figure 4) is designed to meet the  
needs for instrumentation and control of electronically  
controlled engine communication using the SAEJ1939  
Controller Area Network (CAN). This diagnostic display is  
a multifunction tool that enables equipment operators to  
view many different engine parameters and service codes.  
7. Display Screen Graphical backlight LCD screen.  
Back lighting is controlled via menu or external  
dimmer potentiometer. The display can show either a  
single parameter or a quadrant display showing four  
parameters simultaneously.  
8. Diagnostic Switch When placed in the ON position,  
will activate the diagnostic display panel.  
The keypad on the diagnostic display panel is a capacitive  
touch sensing system. There are no mechanical switches  
to wear or stick. This keypad (display unit) will operate in  
extreme hot or cold weather conditions.

There are four (4) different methods for converting fault  
codes. The diagnostic display always looks for J1939  
Version 4 and can be set to read the code as one of  
three (3) other J1939 versions if Version 4 is not being  
used. Most engine ECU’s use Version 4, therefore in  
most cases adjustment of this menu option will not be  
required.

moment to clear all gages.  
Upon receiving an unrecognizable fault, change to a  
different J1939Version.If the fault SPN does not change  
when the version is changed, the ECU generating the  
fault is using Fault Conversion method 4. If the SPN  
number does not change but is still unrecognizable, try  
changing to another J1939 Version not yet used and  
continue to check the SPN number.

Figure 5. Generator Control Panel  
The definitions below describe the controls and functions  
of the Generator Control Panel (Figure 5).  
Located behind the generator control panel is the Generator  
Control Box. This box contains some of the necessary  
electronic components required to make the generator  
function.  
1. main Circuit Breaker—This three-pole, 400A main  
breaker is provided to protect the the U,V, and W  
Output Terminal Lugs from overload.  
The Control Box is equipped with the following major  
components:  
2. voltage regulator Control — Allows 15% manual  
adjustment of the generator’s output voltage.  
„ Over-Current Relay  
3. ammeter Change-over Switch This switch allows  
the AC ammeter to indicate the current flowing to the  
load connected to any phase of the output terminals,  
or to be switched off. This switch does not effect the  
generator output in any fashion, it is for current reading  
only.  
„ Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR)  
„ Starter Relay  
„ Current Transformer  
„ Voltage Selector Switch  
„ Main Circuit Breaker  
4. voltmeter Change-over Switch This switch allows  
the AC voltmeter to indicate phase to phase voltage  
between any two phases of the output terminals or to  
be switched off.  
NOTICE  
Remember the overcurrent relay monitors the current  
flowing from the U,v, and W output terminal lugs  
to the load.  
5. Frequency meter — Indicates the output frequency  
in hertz (Hz). Normally 60 Hz.  
In the event of a short circuit or over current condition,  
it will automatically trip the 400 amp main breaker.  
6. AC Ammeter — Indicates the amount of current the  
load is drawing from the generator per leg selected by  
the ammeter phase-selector switch.  
To restore power to the OutputTerminal Panel, press  
the reset button on the overcurrent relay and place the  
main circuit breaker in the closed position (ON).  
7. aCvoltmeter — Indicates the output voltage present  
at the U,V, and W Output Terminal Lugs.

kPa). When starting the generator the oil pressure may  
read a little higher, but after the engine warms up the  
oilpressure should return to the correct pressure range.  
2. panel light Normally used in dark areas or at night  
time.When activated, panel lights will illuminate.When  
the generator is not in use be sure to turn the panel  
light switch to the OFF position.  
8. Water temperature gauge During normal operation  
this gauge be should read between 180° and 221°F. (82°  
C and 110° C

will illuminate to indicate automatic preheating of the  
engine.When the lamp turns off, the engine has been  
preheated and will start automatically.  
9. Charging ammeter gauge Indicates the current  
being supplied by the engine’s alternator which  
provides current for generator’s control circuits and  
battery charging system.  
4. Warning lamp This lamp will illuminate when a  
critical engine fault has occured.  
5. emergency Stop lamp This lamp will illuminate

has fallen below 15 psi (103 kPa). The oil pressure  
is detected using variable resistive values from the  
oil pressure sending unit. This is considered a major  
fault.  
C. High Coolant Temperature — Indicates the engine  
temperature has exceeded 239°F (110°C).The engine  
temperature is detected using variable resistive values  
from the temperature sending unit. This is considered  
a major fault.  
If the engine does not engage (start) by the third  
attempt, the engine will be shutdown by the engine  
controller’s Over Crank Protection mode. If the engine  
engages at a speed (RPM's) that is not safe, the  
controller will shutdown the engine by initializing the  
Over Speed Protection mode.  
D. Overcrank Shutdown — Indicates the unit has  
attempted to start a pre- programmed number of  
times, and has failed to start. The number of cycles  
and duration are programmable. It is pre-set at 3  
cycles with a 10 second duration. This is considered  
a major fault.  
Also the engine controller will shut down the engine in  
the event of low oil pressure, high coolant temperature,  
low coolant level, and loss of magnetic pickup.  
These conditions can be observed by monitoring the

Always be sure to check the nameplate on the generator  
and equipment to insure the wattage, amperage, frequency,  
and voltage requirements are satisfactorily supplied by the  
generator for operating the equipment.  
When calculating the power requirements for 3-phase  
power use the following equation:  
Generally, the wattage listed on the nameplate of the  
equipment is its rated output. Equipment may require  
130—150% more wattage than the rating on the nameplate,  
as the wattage is influenced by the efficiency, power factor  
and starting system of the equipment.  
NOTICE  
If 3Ø load (kVA) is not given on the equipment  
nameplate, approximate 3Ø load may be determined  
by multiplying voltage by amperage by 1.732.  
NOTICE  
If wattage is not given on the equipment’s name plate,  
approximate wattage may be determined by multiplying  
nameplate voltage by the nameplate amperage.  
NOTICE  
Motors and motor-driven equipment draw much greater  
current for starting than during operation.  
WATTS = VOLTAGE x AMPERAGE  
An inadequate size connecting cable which cannot carry  
the required load can cause a voltage drop which can  
burn out the appliance or tool and overheat the cable. See  
Table 6.  
The power factor of this generator is 0.8.SeeTable 5 below  
when connecting loads.

Maintenance  
If the engine is operating in very dusty or dry grass  
conditions, a clogged air cleaner will result.This can lead to  
a loss of power, excessive carbon buildup in the combustion  
chamber and high fuel consumption. Change air cleaner  
more frequently if these conditions exists.  
FUeltanK inSpeCtion  
In addition to cleaning the fuel tank, the following  
components should be inspected for wear:  
„ Rubber Suspension — look for signs of wear or  
deformity due to contact with oil. Replace the rubber  
suspension if necessary.  
FUel aDDition  
Add diesel fuel (the grade may vary according to season  
and locations).  
„ Fuel Hoses — inspect nylon and rubber hoses for signs  
of wear, deterioration and hardening.  
Removing Water from the Fuel Tank  
„ Fueltank lining — inspect the fuel tank lining for signs  
of excessive amounts of oil or other foreign matter.  
After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulate  
in the bottom of the tank. Occasionally inspect the fuel  
tank for water contamination and drain the contents if  
required.  
Replacing Fuel Filter  
„ Replace the fuel filter cartridge with new one every 500  
hours or so.  
During cold weather, the more empty volume inside the  
tank, the easier it is for water to condense. This can be  
reduced by keeping the tank full with diesel fuel.  
„ Loosen the drain plug at the lower top of the fuel filter.  
Drain the fuel in the fuel body together with the mixed  
water. DO NOT spill the fuel during disassembly.  
Cleaning inside the Fueltank  
„ Vent any air  
If necessary, drain the fuel inside the fuel tank completely.  
Using a spray washer (Figure 58) wash out any deposits  
or debris that have accumulated inside the fuel tank.  
air removal  
If air enters the fuel injection system of a diesel engine,  
starting becomes impossible. After running out of fuel,  
or after disassembling the fuel system, bleed the system  
according to the following procedure. See the JOHN  
Deere engine manual for details.  
To restart after running out of fuel, turn the switch to the  
“ON” position for 15-30 seconds. Try again, if needed.

Maintenance  
CheCK oil level  
raDiator Cleaning  
Check the crankcase oil level prior to each use, or when the  
fuel tank is filled.Insufficient oil may cause severe damage  
to the engine. Make sure the generator is level. The oil  
level must be between the two notches on the dipstick as  
shown in Figure 59.  
The radiator (Figure 59) should be sprayed (cleaned) with  
a high pressure washer when excessive amounts of dirt  
and debris have accumulated on the cooling fins or tube.  
When using a high pressure washer, stand at least 5 feet  
(1.5 meters) away from the radiator to prevent damage to  
the fins and tube.  
Replacing Oil Filter  
„ Remove the old oil filter.  
„ Apply a film of oil to the gasket on the new oil filter.  
„ Install the new oil filter.  
„ After the oil cartridge has been replaced, the engine oil  
will drop slightly.Run the engine for a while and check for  
leaks before adding more oil if needed. Clean excessive  
oil from engine.

trailer Maintenance  
BraKeS  
hydraulic Surge Brakes  
Trailer brakes should be inspected the first 200 miles of  
operation.This will allow the brake shoes and drums to seat  
properly.After the first 200 mile interval, inspect the brakes  
every3,000miles. If driving over rough terrain, inspect the  
brakes more frequently.  
Hydraulic surge brakes (Figure 60) should not require any  
special attention with the exception of routine maintenance  
such as shoe and lining replacement. Brake lines should  
be periodically checked for cracks, kinks, or blockage.  
Figure 60 displays the major hydraulic surge brake  
components that will require inspection and maintenance.  
Please inspect these components as required using steps  
1 through 8 and Table 15 as listed below:  
Brake adjustment  
1. Place the trailer on jack stands. Make sure the jack  
stands are placed on secure level ground.  
2. Check the wheel and drum for free rotation.  
3. Remove the adjusting hole cover from the adjusting  
slot at the bottom brake backing plate.  
Figure 60. Hydraulic Brake Components  
4. With a screwdriver or standard adjusting tool, rotate  
the star wheel of the adjuster assembly to expand the  
brake shoes.  
Actuator  
Hydraulic surge braking requires the installation of an  
actuator at the tongue of the trailer. Remember the surge  
or push of the trailer toward the tow vehicle automatically  
synchronizes the trailer brakes with the tow vehicle brakes.  
As the trailer pushes against the tow vehicle the actuator  
telescopes together and applies force to the master cylinder,  
supplying hydraulic pressure to the trailer brakes.  
5. Adjust the brake shoes outward until the pressure of  
the lining against the wheel drum makes the wheel  
difficult to turn.  
6. Adjust, rotate the star wheel in the opposite direction  
until the wheel rotates freely with slight lining drag.  
7. Replace the adjusting hole cover and lower the trailer  
to the ground.

Suspension  
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical  
components of the trailer.When specifying or replacing the  
trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle are  
properly matched.  
The leaf suspension springs and associated components  
(Figure 61) should be visually inspected every 6,000 miles  
for signs of excessive wear, elongation of bolt holes, and  
loosening of fasteners. Replace all damaged parts  
(suspension) immediately.Torqued suspension components  
as detailed in Table 17.  
CaUtion  
alWaYS wear safety glasses when  
removing or installing force fitted parts.  
Failure to comply may result in serious  
injury.  
CaUtion  
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a  
wheel. DO NOT install in inner tube to  
correct a leak through the rim. If the rim is  
cracked, the air pressure in the inner tube  
may cause pieces of the rim to explode (break off) with  
great force and cause serious eye or bodily injury.
