    Section Il. DESCRIPTION AND DATA

    1-10. Description. Power Unit PU-753/M is made up of one Tactical Utility Generator Set, DOD ModelMEP-003A, mounted on a modified M116A2 trailer. The generator set is an air-cooled, dieselengine-driven unit with a load capacity of 10 KW at 60 Hz. The trailer is a two-wheeled unit with a 3/4-

    ton carrying capacity. The modifications to the basic trailer provide stowage for the accessories andall equipment necessary for mobile operation as well as providing a work platform for the operator andmaintenance personnel. Figures 1-1 and 1-2 illustrate the power unit with the fitted cover removed toshow the generator set.

    CHAPTER 2

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

    Section I. OPERATING PROCEDURES

    2.1. Operating Procedures. The typical mission for any mobile power generating equipment can bedescribed in three steps or phases. In the first phase, the power unit is towed to the worksite and in-

    stalled by unit level technicians (paragraph 4-2). In the second phase of the mission, the operatorstarts the generator set, runs it to power a system or equipment, and eventually shuts it down. In thefinal phase, the power unit is dismantled, packed up and either moved to a new work site or returned tostandby status (paragraph 4-3). This final phase is also accomplished by unit level technicians.

    WARNING

    Do not operate generator set until it is properly grounded (paragraph 4-2, b.)Serious injury or death by electrocution can result from operating an un-grounded generator set.

    Operating noise level of generator can cause hearing damage. Ear

    protectors, as recommended by medical or safety officer, must be worn whenworking near power unit.

    CAUTION

    To avoid damage to equipment, make certain of voltage, frequency, andphase requirements of load connected to generator set.

    NOTE

    Before starting generator set, do your Before PMCS as described in table 3-2.

    In order to perform the operators task during the mission, refer to the data plate located on the right-

    hand side of the generator set control cubicle. Follow the operating instructions on the data plate tostart and run the generator set. Monitor and adjust generator set power output as required duringoperation. At the end of the mission, shut down the generator set in accordance with the operatinginstructions on the data plate. For a copy of the information on the data plate, as well as more detailedoperating procedures for the generator set, refer to TM 5-6115-585-12. For trailer operatingprocedures, refer to TM 9-2330-202-14&P.

    After you operate, be sure to perform your after (A) PMCS.

    Do (W) PMCS weekly.

    Do (M) PMCS monthly.

    If equipment fails to operate, refer to Section IV Troubleshooting. If the problem cannot becorrected, see paragraph 3-8, Reporting Deficiencies.

    3-6. Purpose of PMCS Table. The purpose of the PMCS table is to provide a systematic method ofinspecting and servicing the equipment. In this way, small defects can be detected early before theybecome a major problem causing the equipment to fail to complete its mission. The PMCS table isarranged with the individual PMCS procedures listed in sequence under assigned intervals. The mostlogical time (before, during, or after operation) to perform each procedure determines the interval towhich it is assigned. Make a habit of doing the checks and services in the same order each time andanything wrong will be seen quickly. See paragraph 3-7 for an explanation of the columns intable 3-2.

    3.7. Explanation of Columns. The following is a list of the PMCS table column headings with adescription of the information found in each column.

    a. Item No. This column shows the sequence in which the checks and services are to beperformed, and is used to identify the equipment area on the Equipment Inspection and MaintenanceWorksheet, DA Form 2404.

    b. IntervalThis column shows when each check is to be done.

    c. Item to be Inspected/Procedures. This column identifies the general area or specific partwhere the check or service is to be done, lists the checks or services to be done and explains how to dothem.

    d. Equipment is Not Ready/Available If This column lists conditions that make the equipmentunavailable for use because it is unable to perform its mission or because it would represent a safetyhazard. Do not accept or operate equipment with a condition in the Equipment is Not Ready/AvailableIf column.

    3.8. Reporting Deficiencies. If you discover any problem with the equipment during PMCS or whileoperating it that you are unable to correct, it must be reported. Refer to DA Pam 738-750 and reportthe deficiency using the proper forms.

    3-9. Special Instructions. Preventive maintenance is not limited to performing the checks andservices listed in the PMCS table. Covering unused receptacles, stowing unused equipment and otherroutine procedures such as equipment inventory, cleaning components, and touch-up painting arenot listed in the PMCS table. These are things you should do any time you see they need to be done. Ifa routine check is listed in the PMCS table it is because other operators have reported problems withthis item. Take along tools and cleaning cloths needed to perform the required checks and services.Use the information in the following paragraphs to help you identify problems at any time.

    a. Routine Inspections. Use the following information to help identify potential problems beforeand during checks and services.

    CAUTION

    Equipment operation is allowable with minor leakage (Class I or II) of any fluidexcept fuel. Of course, consideration must be given to the fluid capacity in theitem being checked/inspected. When in doubt, notify your supervisor.

    When operating with Class I or II leaks, continue to check fluid level more oftenthan required in the PMCS. Parts without fluid will stop working and/or cause

    equipment damage.

    Class Ill leaks should be reported to your supervisor or unit maintenance.

    Table 3-2. Operator/Crew Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS)

    NOTE

    If the equipment must be kept in continuous operation, check and service onlythose items that can be checked and serviced without disturbing operation.Make the complete checks and services when the equipment can be shutdown.

    Within designated interval, these checks are to be performed in the orderlisted.

    or 5 minutes may result in serious cardiac or central nervous system effects.Liquid Halon 1301 (including the spray in the immediate vicinity of thedischarge) may freeze the skin on contact. In the event of frostbite, warm theaffected area quickly to body temperature. Immerse hands in warm water orplace hands in armpits. Get medical attention promptly.

    CAUTION

    Do not attempt to verify readiness of fire extinguisher byunit. Any discharge of contents will require refilling.
