SHUTOFF AND ALARM SYSTEM COMPONENTS
TESTING AND ADJUSTING
PRESSURE SWITCH WITH TIME DELAY
Tools Needed:
8M2743 Gauge.
8S4627 Circuit Tester.
1.
Remove the pressure switch (2) from the tee.
OIL PRESSURE SWITCH WITH TIME DELAY
INSTALLED
1. Damper. 2. Pressure switch. 3. Valve.
2.
Install a short nipple, shutoff valve and short
nipple and another tee in the place of the
pressure switch (2). Make sure that the valve is
closed.
3.
Install the pressure switch (2) and a 8M2743
Gauge in the open ends of the tee.
4.
Connect the 8S4627 Circuit Tester between the
terminals of the pressure switch.
TEST TOOLING INSTALLED
5.
Start the engine. Open the shutoff valve a small
amount. Look at the pressure on the 8M2743
Gauge. When the pressure gets to the range
given in the specifications, the circuit light must
go on.
6.
Close the shutoff valve. Stop the engine. Open
the shutoff valve a small amount. Look at the
pressure on the 8M2743 Gauge. When the
pressure gets to the range given in the
specifications. close the valve. After five
minutes open the valve fully. The circuit tester
light must stay on a minimum of 30 seconds and
a maximum of 15 minutes after the valve is fully
opened.
SHUTOFF SOLENOIDS
1.
Make sure the linkage to which the solenoid is
connected does not give more than the normal
amount of restriction.
2.
Connect a voltmeter between the terminals of
the solenoid.
3.
Activate the solenoid circuit. If the voltage
shown on the meter is less than the needed
voltage, the circuit has a failure. Check the other
components of the circuit. If the voltage is the
same or more than the needed voltage. make a
replacement of the solenoid.

CONTACTOR SWITCH FOR OVERSPEED
The original setting of the contactor switch for
overspeed will stop the engine when the engine rpm is
more than 18% above full load rpm. DO NOT check the
adjustment of the contactor switch on the engine.
Off Engine Adjustment
Tools Needed:
4S6553 Engine Test Group.
8S4627 Circuit Tester.
5L2277 Adapter.
Reversible Variable Speed Drill.
1.
Connect the I P7443 or 4S6991 Tachometer of
the 4S6553 Group to the tachometer generator
(2).
2.
Connect the 5L2277 Adapter (3) to the contactor
switch and tachometer generator (2).
3.
Install variable speed drill (4) to the adapter as
shown.
