No generator output voltageCircuit breaker trippedReset circuit breaker
Low generator output voltageVoltage adjustment set too lowAdjust voltage potentiometer
Low engine speedCall TEREX Service
Fluctuating or surging generator output voltageCheck engine fuel, oil, and air filters
High generator output voltageVoltage adjustment potentiometer set too highAdjust potentiometer
High engine speedCall TEREX Service
Fluctuating generator output voltage stabilityLoad may be the causeRedistribute load if possible
Engine won't crankLoose battery cableCheck cables and battery electrolyte level. Recharge as necessary
Engine runs, but loses power under loadClogged fuel systemCheck fuel system
Engine shuts downOil Pressure Switch not opening automatically and TROUBLE LIGHT onImproper coolant use a 50/50 on
TROUBLE LIGHT on CONTROL PANEL is illuminatedBroken fan beltInspect fan belt and replace as needed
Voltage does not come up to the rated voltageInternal problem with the generator endCheck for even reading across the lines, if they are not this would mean you probably have a problem with the wiring of the switch or generator. If the generator voltage reads correctly, contact the TEREX service department.
Uneven reading between the legs when applying 24 volts to the field wiresRecheck your wiring connections. After you have the field wire connected start the unit again and check your output voltage. It may still be necessary to flash the fields to restore residual voltage.
