LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS - Continued
GENERATOR HOUSING
The housing (Figure 1, Sheet 6, Item 35) is fabricated from sheet steel and attaches directly to mating flanges on
the skid base. The housing is thus removable for unscheduled maintenance and engine or generator removal.
Access openings and doors (Figure 1, Sheet 6, Item 36) allow engine, generator, and other component servicing.
Each side of the rear housing has a set of double doors and the large doors at the front of the housing provide
accessibility. The housing structure incorporates acoustic damping foam and internal baffle structures to reduce
engine noise. The rugged design of the housing includes reinforced corners and access openings to meet
transportability, operational, and handling requirements of a mobile military generator set.
TRAILER-MOUNTED CONFIGURATION (PU-809A)
The skid-mounted TQG can be mounted on a model XM1061 E1 5-ton trailer (Figure 1, Sheet 6, Item 37). In this
configuration, the TQG can be towed and positioned as required. In the power-unit configuration, the trailer-
mounted TQG has an accessory box (Figure 1, Sheet 6, Item 38) and two fire extinguishers (Figure 1, Sheet 6,
Item 39). The TQG skid is bolted directly to the trailer bed and frame.
