3054 and 3056 Marine Generator Sets Caterpillar


Stopping the Engine

Usage:

3054 CHN


NOTICE

Stopping the engine immediately after it has been working under load can result in overheating and accelerated wear of the engine components.

If the engine has been operating at high rpm and/or high loads, run at low idle for at least three minutes to reduce and stabilize internal engine temperature before stopping the engine.

Avoiding hot engine shutdowns will maximize turbocharger shaft and bearing life.

Manual Operation

  1. Turn engine control switch (8) to automatic position (6). When the remote stop delay timer expires, the load is disconnected. The generator will turn off. The engine will then run at idle during the cooldown timer.

    Note: If the remote start signal is removed, then the engine will continue to run until engine control switch (8) is turned to automatic position (6) .

  1. Turn engine control switch (8) to Stop/Reset position (7) .

Automatic Operation

  1. Remove the remote start signal. When the remote stop delay timer expires, the load is disconnected. The generator will turn off. The engine will then run at idle during the cooldown timer.
