Maintenance Procedures

  • Check for proper oil and coolant levels, fuel supply, and exhaust system condition

  • Observe the weekly test start, and ensure that the engine runs for a half hour and then automatically stops. During the weekly test:

  • Observe the engine speed, pump discharge pressure, oil pressure, and ammeter for normal<br>operating range.

  • Ensure the engine coolant reaches normal operating temperature during a 30 minute run time

  • Listen for unusual noise, and check for excessive vibration. Identify sources of noise and vibration

  • Examine the pump packing for excessive water leakage (small leakage is necessary)

  • Check for proper supervisory signals. When applicable, supervised temperature and oil pressure circuits should be mechanically closed and checked for proper signals

  • Adjust the governor run/stop mechanism

  • Clean and inspect the fire pump assembly

  • Clean the exterior housing of the engine, control panel, and related components

  • Remove and inspect the engine air cleaner

  • Inspect the starter, manual contactor, mounting bolts, cables, and electrical connectors. Relamp as necessary

  • Inspect the fuel system for leaks

  • Check the belts for wear and tension. Replace if necessary

  • Inspect and tighten the exhaust system, manifold, and turbo mount. Inspect personal protection insulation for deterioration looseness. Repair as necessary.

  • Check the water jacket heater and oil heater

  • Inspect the gages and controls

  • Inspect the battery and the battery charger

  • Inspect and clean the battery terminals, leads, and casings

  • Check the battery water level and specific gravity. Add distilled water as required. Check the battery voltage

  • Check the operation of the battery charger

  • Inspect the battery alternator for corrosion, looseness, and broken wires. Clean, tighten, and repair as necessary.

  • Return the unit to run status. Alter the environmental condition programmed to start the fire pump, method will prove automatic starting of the fire pump

  • Verify that the unit operates properly

  • Clean up and remove all debris from the work area
