Gen T500

The Gen T500 fuel electricity Generator, capable of generating 200 kWh, constructed from base materials find in the world.

Setup Procedure
Ensure that you don't add any fuel to your Gen T500 before you have added the required components into it's GUI. Failure to comply will result in your generator overworking and exploding. This generator will only run on fuel and nothing else, but has a huge noise reduction and suitable for home and industrial use.

On average you can refill the generator with 1 Fuel Can.

Maintenance
You need to perform maintenance on the Gen T500 within 240 mins of running time. To perform maintenance use the Factory Wrench and right click on the machine and check the GUI to see where the current maintenance level is at.

If by accident or out of laziness you forgot to maintain your generator and the maintenance reach 0 the components will gradually start to break down starting with the screws, followed by the Gears and lastly the Shaft. During this time you can still fix your generator by using the Factory Wrench on the generator and then either replace the lost components or use the required tool to fix the Screws, Gears or Shaft.

The components can only be fixed if their damage level has not dropped below 0

Oil and Coolant does not have to be maintain, but will leak out if your machine has not been properly maintain and after fixing your generator ensure that the Oil and Coolant levels are sufficient for operations.

A warning light will come on inside the GUI if attention is required.

Operations Procedure
The Gen T500 is pretty straight forward, connect wire to the front of the generator to supply electricity to your machines. The generator outputs 200 kWh which will help you with the machine that require more power. The generator won't overload or explode if your connecting it to a machine that needs more than what the machine can output.

The generator can't store power and as of version 1.2.5 has no off button so it will use all the fuel and then stop, in later versions an off button might be added. Once the generator fuel supply has been used up it will loose output power and stop.

You can connect the wire from this generator to the wires running from your Gen T100 and the extra power gained will be added.

If you play on a server using SimCraft and the server gets restarted by any change the generator will not supply electricity to the wires until you touch the output of the generator where the wire connects, this will start the generator and electricity will start to flow to your machines. This is a fail safe option to ensure your machines does not explode if your aren't online after a server restart.

Machine Removal
To remove your Gen T500 safely use a Pipe Wrench, if by the thunder luck of a miner you decide to use a pick axe you will destroy your machine and only get Scrap Metal back. You will also not be able to remove the machine if your maintenance level is below 200 mins. A warning will inform you that you cannot remove the generator and you will need to fix the generator with a Factory Wrench first before attempting to remove it again.

Working
While your Gen T500 is working or on, you will hear the generator sound. If your maintenance level is below zero and your components starts to break down, the sound will change to inform you and smoke will start to rise from your machine. Once your Gears have broken flames will erupt from your generator and at this point you need to run or quickly start fixing your generator.
