6. INSTALLATION
6.1 Lifting
Lift and handle the generator with suitable equipment either
on a pallet or by the lifting lugs located on the generator in
the positions indicated in the figure.
When lifting the generator use equipment with a
loadbearing capacity of at least 150kg.
An insufficient loadbearing capacity can
cause severe injury and damage.
CAUTION!
The lifting lugs on the generator have been
designed for lifting only the generator and
not the whole generating set.
CAUTION!
When lifting and handling single bearing generators they
must be kept horizontal in order to avoid, if operations should
go wrong, the rotor from slipping out and being damaged
and possibly causing severe injury.
6.2 Mounting on engine

For tightening torques refer to section 6.2.6
Before proceeding with assembly check
that the faces couplings (both on generator
and engine) are in order and perfectly

clean.
• Remove the protective grids (6).
• Fasten the shield (1) to the engine (after having removed
it from the alternator).
• Apply the tie rod (2) that anchors the rotor axially by
screwing it onto the external section of the engine shaft.
• Anchor the complete generator assembly (i.e. stator and
rotor) to the flange(1) using the 4 self-locking nuts (3).
• Check that the faces couplings of rotor and engine have
made contact by hammering the rotor axially with a plastic
mallet and block.
• Lock axially the rotor by turning the self-locking nut (4) on
the tie rod (2).
Before fastening the nut check that part of
the threaded section of the tie rod enters
the rotor thereby obtaining a sound hold.
CAUTION!
• Check that exciter rotor and stator are perfectly aligned.
• Mount the assembly on antivibration plugs (5) making sure
that engine and generator are level.
• Replace the grids (6) and fit the plastic cap (7).
