Symptoms & remedies

SymptomCauseRemedy
Low oil pressure shutdownLow oil levelVerify oil level on dipstick. Add oil, if needed.
Low oil pressure shutdownOil leaking from engineVisually inspect the engine for leaks.
Low oil pressure shutdownOil pressure switch failureRefer to OEM engine operator's manual to identify corrective action.
High coolant temperature shutdownLow coolant levelAdd coolant if needed. Allow engine to cool, then check coolant level in radiator. Restart engine and check coolant temperature. Stop engine immediately if coolant temperature is 210°F (99°C) or more.
High coolant temperature shutdownBlockage in radiatorInspect radiator shroud and ducting for blockage and remove any foreign matter.
High coolant temperature shutdownLeakage in coolant hoses, engine block, or water pumpInspect for visible leaks. Verify tension of water pump serpentine drive belt.

Unit cranks, but will not startRestricted air filterInspect air filter for blockage. Refer to OEM engine operator's manual for additional information.
Mast Lights Off, but Ballast Indicators on Control Panel are On.Light fixture is too hot.Allow light to cool 10-15 minutes before restarting.
Mast Lights Off, but Ballast Indicators on Control Panel are On.Faulty lamp connection.Check that the lamp is tight in the socket.
Mast Lights Off, but Ballast Indicators on Control Panel are On.Lamp brokenCheck for broken arc tube or outer lamp jacket, broken or loose components in lamp envelope, or blackening/deposits inside tube.
Mast Lights Off, but Ballast Indicators on Control Panel are On.Loose lighting connectionsCheck the connections inside the mast junction box and each mast light housing/socket.
Mast Lights Off, but Ballast Indicators on Control Panel are On.Damaged or loose electrical cordCheck the mast electrical cord for damage and check the cord connections inside the control box.
Mast Lights Off, and Ballast Indicators on the Control Panel are Off.Loose lighting connectionsCheck the connections inside the control box and inside each ballast box.
Mast Lights Off, and Ballast Indicators on the Control Panel are Off.Generator output incorrect.Check the incoming voltage to the ballast by checking the available voltage on the GFCI receptacle. Incoming voltage should be 120V +/- 5V. If voltage is incorrect, the engine speed may need to be adjusted or generator may require service.
Mast Lights Off, and Ballast Indicators on the Control Panel are Off.Low transformer output.The voltage from the transformer should read approximately 400VAC as the light "strikes" (induces an arc), then drop and slowly rise back up to stabilize at 240-260VAC. On hard wired models, remove the mast junction box cover and insert the wire probes into the connector blocks for the light and ground. If proper voltage is not achieved, perform capacitor check to determine if the capacitor or coil needs to be replaced.
Mast Lights On But the Light Output is LowFixture and/or lens is dirty.Clean reflective surface inside fixture and both inside and outside surface of glass lens. Use mild soap and water to clean lens. Other chemicals may have an adverse effect on the glass.
Mast Lights On But the Light Output is LowLamp worn due to normal useReplace lamp.
Mast Lights On But the Light Output is LowDamaged or loose electrical connectionsCheck the mast coil cord, mast junction box and mast light connections.
Mast Lights On But the Light Output is LowGenerator output incorrect.Check the incoming voltage to the ballast. Incoming voltage should be 120V +/-5V. If the voltage is incorrect, the engine speed may need to be adjusted or the generator may require service.
