5.3 Motor variants
WARNING / CAUTION / ATTENTION!
For all motor variants, also comply with the separate operating instructions of
each motor manufacturer.
5.3.1 Electric motor
These hydraulic units are equipped with an electric motor. The electric motor is driven by
electricity from the mains supply or by electricity produced by generators. In the case of
operation with generators, make sure that voltage
À uctuations do not occur, as these have a
direct in
À uence on the pumping capacity and stability of the hydraulic unit.
The possible operating voltage, the current frequency and the required intensity of current
can be found in the chapter entitled „Technical data".
NOTE:
Not all the technical details of the engine installed in LUKAS units correspond
to the engine described in the separate operating instructions provided by the
manufacturer. Components such as the gasoline tank have been modi
¿ ed to
guarantee the safety of the overall hydraulic unit because the unit is used for
rescue operations.
However, it is important that you observe all safety regulations and operating,
maintenance and storage instructions included in the separate manual
accompanying the engine without fail because they are unaffected by any
adaptations made by LUKAS.
If the battery discharges completely after a period of inactivity, you must start the unit using
the cord pull starter and allow the unit to operate until almost a complete tank of fuel has
been consumed. The battery will then be fully charged.
If the battery is still not charged after the unit consumes a full tank of fuel, the causes may
include the following:
- the contacts (connector) have come loose and must be connected again.
- the battery is defective and must be replaced.
- the generator or engine is damaged. In this case, contact LUKAS customer service
directly.
5.3.2 Gasoline engine
These hydraulic units are equipped with a combustion engine driven by the fuel "gasoline /
gasoline".
Units can be
¿ tted with both an electric starter and a pull cord starter, or a pull cord starter
only. It is only possible to determine the unit version from the item number and unit name or
the designation printed on the unit.
The integral generator charges the starter battery automatically while the engine is operating.
NOTE:
Using an extremely long electrical connection cable may reduce the output
resistance and the power supply to the motor. The performance of the motor will
be affected as a result.
