Manual filter until the seal ring contacts the mounting surface of the filter seat of Perkins diesel generator, and then use tools to tighten 45+5N. m or 3/4 to 1 turn. Open the top of the Perkins diesel generator fuel nozzle near the lower end of the body, inject clean engine oil into the Perkins diesel generator diesel engine, and mark the top of the fuel gauge. The oil capacity of the diesel engine system of Perkins diesel generator is about 65 liters, and the oil capacity of the oil pan is about 42 liters.


Start Perkins diesel generator and idle it. Check whether the oil filter and oil drain screw of diesel generator are leaking. Check the oil level of Perkins diesel generator engine at idle or low speed. If necessary, add a high oil level mark (marked as "full") near the oil dipstick, install the filler cap and tighten the handle of the diesel generator.


In order to protect the turbocharger of Perkins diesel generator set, when the diesel generator set is started and running. Check the oil quantity. Before starting the diesel generator set, the diesel generator set must be started through the starter to confirm that the oil pressure of the diesel generator set increases until the oil pressure gauge indicator moves or the pressure indicator lights up.


When replacing the oil, oil filter and lubrication system components of the Perkins diesel generator set or shutting down the Perkins diesel generator set for a long time, and when the diesel generator set is operating in low temperature weather, loosen the connection piece of the turbocharger inlet pipe of the diesel generator set until the diesel generator set is started, and the oil of the diesel generator set flows out from the connection part.


After confirming the above conditions, pay attention to retightening the pipe joint of Perkins diesel generator and start it normally. If the diesel generator set starts quickly, the bearings of Perkins diesel generator set will be abnormally worn or stuck because the oil of Perkins diesel generator set does not reach the rotating parts. When Perkins diesel generator shuts down for a long time and works in cold weather, the oil fluidity will be very poor.
