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
SK315/355
equipment with a load bearing capacity of at least
2000kg.
When lifting the SK400/450-SK500 generator use
equipment with a load bearing capacity of at least
4000kg.
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 6.2.3.
For mechanical connections it is recommended to use
screws at least in class 10.9.
6.2.1 Assembly format SAE
generator
use
CAUTION!
• Remove the transport bracket from the generator;
• remove the protective grid (4) from the bell;
• make sure the diameter of the disk (3) corresponds
with the diameter of the seat of the flywheel (2);
• fix the generator to the engine by locking the SAE bell
(1), making sure that the holes in disk and flywheel
are aligned;
• check that the disk is in contact with the flywheel;
• lock the disk into the flywheel;
• support the assembly on antivibration dampers
making sure that engine and generator are level;
• remount the grid, block the hooking closures (5) and
insert the cotter pin (6) paying attention to open the
anti-slip legs.
