Shangchai G Series Engine Operation Instructions

This article mainly talks about Shangchai G Series V-type SC27G diesel engine operation instructions.




1.3 Safety Instructions (To user and operator)

● Do not wear a loose garment or any jewelry when working around the engine or its driven equipment. If necessary, wear safety goggles, work clothes, safety helmet or other protective items.

● All the exposed rotating parts should be provided with guards with firm installation to prevent personal injury.

The workroom of the engine should be well ventilated with waste gas exhausted outside.

● No flammable liquid is allowed to be around the engine.

● Take all tools, wires, other odds and ends away from the engine prior to starting.

● Make sure to shutdown the engine before any adjustment is performed to it and its driven equipment.

● Smoking is not allowed during fuel filling, otherwise, fuel steam can cause fire easily.

● Smoking is also not allowed when checking the electrolyte level because electrolyte will release flammable gas.

● Contact between electrolyte and skin or eyes must be prevented when replenishing rt for the battery, because electrolyte is an acid. In case of skin contact, please flush the contacted part with soap and clean water; in case of eyes contact, flush your eye(s) for 15 minutes with clean water and seek for medical treatment immediately.

● Cool the engine first when filling coolant to avoid being hurt by coolant steam. Open the pressure cap only when the coolant temperature is lower than 50 C, and then slowly loosen the cap to release the pressure of coolant.

● Wipe up lubricating oil, fuel, coolant or other liquids overflowed. Put oily rags into a fire-protection container, and do not leave Ft on the engine.

● Before starting the engine after being repaired, make sure to be ready to cut air supply. In case of any abnormal, cut air supply to stop the engine immediately.

● Do not rotate the engine with the fan, otherwise severe personal injury or damage to fan blades can be caused.

● Do not touch by hand the intake and exhaust system components such as the exhaust manifold, turbocharger, inter cooler air inlet pipe, expand tank because they are in high temperature when the engine is in operation,

● Release the pressure in the air system, lubricating system, cooling system or fuel system prior to dismantling or loosening any pipelines, permanent joints, connectors or relevant parts of these system. Do not use your hand to check leakage, otherwise high pressure and high temperature fuel, lubricating oil and coolant can cause personal injury.

● If the engine will not be used for a long time or is under repair, separate it from the battery to prevent an unexpected start-up. Meanwhile, place a sign STOP in the operation room or on the controller.

● Used engine oil may contain carcinogenic substance which can result in reproductive toxicity, therefore, inhalation of or longtime exposure to oil steam should be avoided. Waste oil should be disposed in proper, safe and reliable manner.



1.4 Engine Operation Instructions



● Read this manual carefully, and be in strict accordance with operation instructions and maintenance procedure specified in this manual.

● Conduct daily and 4-level maintenance as specified in this manual, and keep the records of scheduled maintenance.

Use the proper fuel, lubricating oil and coolant specified in this manual.

● Do not run the engine without air filter, otherwise, early engine wear will happen.

● The coolant specified in the manual should be adopted for the engine cooling system in any kind of climate.

● When filling lubricating oil, it is not allowed to use the mixture of oil of different specifications.

● Preparations should be well done before starting the engine. Be sure to remember that the engine must be started without load.

● Check if coolant, lubricating oil and fuel are enough before starting the engine. It is not allowed to start the engine with lack of diesel fuel in the fuel tank. The fuel tank should be replenished; or it will cause damage to the high pressure fuel pump.

● Observe the engine operation and all the instrument readings. In case of critical situation, an emergency stop should be performed to prevent the seizure of moving pads caused by low oil pressure or overheating due to lack of coolant.

● Do not run the engine at high load and high speed when the coolant temperature is blow 60°C.

● The belt tension and the other drive devices can only be inspected when the engine is in stop.

● Malfunction thermostat should be replaced in time but the use of thermostat cannot be omitted.


● Do not remove the lead seals on the engine to make adjustment without permission. If necessary send the relevant components to a professional service location for repair and adjustment.

Diesel Generator Power Ratings: Standby vs Prime vs Continuous

Diesel generator sets are commonly used in a variety of sectors due to their dependable performance and high efficiency. They can be used for emergency power supply in the event of a power cut or used in places without connection to a power grid. When selecting a diesel generator for your home or business, you need to consider many factors, such as generator’s ratings. In this article, we’ll explain the three basic rating types - standby, prime, and continuous in diesel generators. ISO-8528-1:2018 defines basic generator set rating categories based on four operational categories: Emergency Standby Power (ESP), Prime Power (PRP), Continuous Power (COP) and Limited-Time Running Prime (LTP). Read on and learn the application of power ratings for engines used in generating sets. Standby Power Rating Standby Power(ESP) is used to supply emergency power when the external power supply is interrupted, such as power outages. Standby power rated generators can supply reliable electricity as t...

How to Choose a Household Mini Generator

With the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more household appliances, such as rice cookers, microwaves, kettles, refrigerators, air - conditioners, washing machines, etc. It can be said that every household has them. But what if there is a power outage? These appliances won't work properly, and our lives will be greatly disrupted. How can we avoid this? We can use household mini - generators to provide convenience in power consumption. So, how to choose a good household mini - generator? Consider the noise level Since it is for household use, when choosing a household mini - generator, we need to check whether the noise will affect the neighbors. Generally, the seller will demonstrate the performance of the generator in advance. A good household generator can reduce noise by about 80%. Choose a generator with a moderate price Due to different brands, there are significant differences in power, and consequently, the price differences of househ...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
