Hawker Siddeley Lister genset manual

[janneuu]

I’ve tried and failed to find any documentation online of this Hawker Siddeley generator + Lister motor setup I recently got my hands on. One of the pictures of it in https://photos.app.goo.gl/Z1C5Uaax3wZRaGdH7 has the plant number L07993/003/PB and other details, but does anyone have any more info of this specific model? Like its name or when approximately it was built. Do any manuals or other documentation exist of these beasts?

Hawker Siddeley was a conglomerate and the parent company of Lister for a few decades. I have not seen much if any documentation about Lister gensets from Hawker Siddeley directly. It will probably be easier to break it down by engine model and generator model.

The smaller tag above the Hawker tag will give you some data though. The 8th-10th digits indicate it is a Lister HL4 engine which was produced from 1983-1991. If I am reading the tag correctly it is the 397th engine produced in 1984 The last two digits which I can't make out are your build number for specific operating data. There appears to be a tag on the generator head which will give you the info needed to track down data from that manufacturer.
