GENERAL HAZARDS

• For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends that this equipment

be installed, serviced and repaired by a Service Dealer or other

competent, qualified electrician or installation technician who is familiar

with applicable codes, standards and regulations. The operator also

must comply with all such codes, standards and regulations.

• The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which

can be DEADLY. This dangerous gas, if breathed in sufficient

concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or even death. Do

NOT alter or add to the exhaust system or do anything that might

render the system unsafe or in noncompliance with applicable

codes and standards.

• Install a battery operated carbon monoxide alarm indoors,

according to manufacturer’s instructions/recommendations.

• Adequate, unobstructed flow of cooling and ventilating air is

critical to correct generator operation. Do not alter the installation

or permit even partial blockage of ventilation provisions, as this

can seriously affect safe operation of the generator. The generator

MUST be installed and operated outdoors only.

• Keep hands, feet, clothing, etc., away from drive belts, fans, and

other moving or hot parts. Never remove any drive belt or fan

guard while the unit is operating.

• When working on this equipment, remain alert at all times. Never

work on the equipment when physically or mentally fatigued.

• Inspect the generator regularly, and contact the nearest Dealer for

parts needing repair or replacement.

• Before performing any maintenance on the generator, disconnect

its battery cables to prevent accidental start up. Disconnect the

cable from the battery post indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG or

(–) first, then remove the POSITIVE, POS or (+) cable. When

reconnecting the cables, connect the POSITIVE cable first, the

NEGATIVE cable last.

• Never use the generator or any of its parts as a step. Stepping on

the unit can stress and break parts, and may result in dangerous

operating conditions from leaking exhaust gases, fuel leakage, oil

leakage, etc.

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

• All generators covered by this manual produce dangerous electrical

voltages and can cause fatal electrical shock. Utility power delivers

extremely high and dangerous voltages to the transfer switch as

does the standby generator when it is in operation. Avoid contact

with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc., while the unit is

running. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards and barriers are

in place, secured and/or locked before operating the generator.

If work must be done around an operating unit, stand on an

insulated, dry surface to reduce shock hazard.

• Do not handle any kind of electrical device while standing in water,

while barefoot, or while hands or feet are wet. DANGEROUS

ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY RESULT.

• The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the frame and external

electrically conductive parts of the generator to be connected to an

approved earth ground. Local electrical codes also may require proper

grounding of the generator electrical system.

• After installing this home standby electrical system, the generator

may crank and start at any time without warning. When this

occurs, load circuits are transferred to the STANDBY (generator)

power source. To prevent possible injury if such a start and

transfer occur, always set the generator’s AUTO/OFF/MANUAL

switch to its OFF position before working on equipment and

remove the 7.5A fuse from the generator control panel.

• In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down

the source of electrical power. If this is not possible, attempt to free

the victim from the live conductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT WITH

THE VICTIM. Use a nonconducting implement, such as a dry rope

or board, to free the victim from the live conductor. If the victim is

unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate medical help.

• Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment. Jewelry can

conduct electricity resulting in electric shock, or may get caught in

moving components causing injury.

FIRE HAZARDS

• For fire safety, the generator must be installed and maintained

properly. Installation must always comply with applicable

codes, standards, laws and regulations. Adhere strictly to local,

state and national electrical and building codes. Comply with

regulations the Occupational Safety and Health Administration

(OSHA) has established. Also, ensure that the generator is

installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and

recommendations. Following proper installation, do nothing that

might alter a safe installation and render the unit in noncompliance

with the aforementioned codes, standards, laws and regulations.

• Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator at all times.

Extinguishers rated “ABC” by the National Fire Protection

Association are appropriate for use on the standby electric system.

Keep the extinguisher properly charged and be familiar with its use.

Consult the local fire department with any questions pertaining to

fire extinguishers.

EXPLOSION HAZARDS

• Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or oil spills

immediately. Ensure that no combustible materials are left in the

generator compartment, or on or near the generator, as FIRE or

EXPLOSION may result. Keep the area surrounding the generator

clean and free from debris.

• Gaseous fluids such as natural gas and liquid propane (LP)

gas are extremely EXPLOSIVE. Install the fuel supply system

according to applicable fuel-gas codes. Before placing the home

standby electric system into service, fuel system lines must be

properly purged and leak tested according to applicable code.

After installation, inspect the fuel system periodically for leaks. No

leakage is permitted.

Safety Rules

ENGINE EXHAUST HAZARDS

• Generator engine exhaust contains DEADLY carbon monoxide, an

odorless, colorless poisonous gas. Breathing carbon monoxide

can cause: dizziness, throbbing temples, nausea, muscular

twitching, headache, vomiting, weakness and sleepiness, inability

to think clearly, fainting, unconsciousness or even death. If you

experience any carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms, move into

fresh air and immediately seek medical attention.

• Never operate the generator set with the generator inside any

garage or other enclosed area EVEN IF doors and windows are

open.

UNPACKING/INSPECTION

After unpacking, carefully inspect the contents for damage.

• This standby generator set is ready for installation with a factory

supplied and pre-mounted base pad and has a weather protective

enclosure that is intended for outdoor installation only.

• This UL listed, 2-pole switch is rated at 100 or 200 AC amperes at

250 volts maximum. The 100 Amp transfer switch is for indoor

use only. The 200 Amp transfer switch is for indoor/outdoor use

(if equipped).



If this generator is used to power electrical load

circuits normally powered by a utility power

source, it is required by code to install a transfer

switch. The transfer switch must effectively isolate

the electrical system from the utility distribution

system when the generator is operating (NEC 700,

701 & 702). Failure to isolate an electrical system

by such means will result in damage to the gen-

erator and also may result in injury or death to

utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical

energy.

If any loss or damage is noted at time of delivery, have the person(s)

making the delivery note all damage on the freight bill or affix their

signature under the consignor’s memo of loss or damage.

If a loss or damage is noted after delivery, separate the damaged

materials and contact the carrier for claim procedures.

“Concealed damage” is understood to mean damage to the contents

of a package that is not in evidence at the time of delivery, but is

discovered later.

To properly open the roof, press down on the center top lip and

release the latch. If pressure is not applied from the top, the roof may

appear stuck. Always verify that the side lock is unlocked before

attempting to lift the roof.

NEC REQUIREMENTS

Local code enforcement may require that AFCI’s be incorporated

into the transfer switch distribution panel. The Transfer Switch

provided with this generator has a distribution panel that will

accept AFCI’s.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Contact the local inspector or City Hall to be aware of all federal,

state and local codes that could impact the installation. Secure all

required permits before starting the job.

Carefully read and follow all of the procedures and safety

precautions detailed in the installation guide. If any portion of the

installation manual, technical manual or other factory-supplied

documents is not completely understood, contact a dealer for

assistance.

Fully comply with all relevant NEC, NFPA and OSHA standards

as well as all federal, state and local building and electric codes.

As with any generator, this unit must be installed in accordance

with current NFPA 37 and NFPA 70 standards as well as any other

federal, state, and local codes for minimum distances from other

structures.

SITE PREPARATION AND GENERATOR

PLACEMENT

1. Locate the mounting area as close as possible to the transfer

switch and fuel supply.

Leave adequate room around the area for service access

(check local code), and place high enough to keep rising

water from reaching the generator.

Choose an open space that will provide adequate and

unobstructed airflow (see the “Location” section in the

Owner’s Manual).

2. Place the unit so air vents won’t become clogged with leaves,

grass, snow or debris. Make sure exhaust fumes will not enter

the building through eaves, windows, ventilation fans or other

air intakes.

Refer to the local codes and standards for the proper distance

between the unit and the building/structure.

Dig a rectangular area approximately five inches deep and

about six inches longer and wider than the footprint of the

generator. Cover with polyurethane film and fill with pea gravel

or crushed stone. Compact and level the stone. A concrete

pad can be poured if desired.

3. Inspect the generator for shipping damage and if necessary,

file a claim with the shipper.

Remove the bands holding the generator to the wooden pallet.

4. Make sure the lifting equipment to be used has sufficient

capacity to safely handle the weight of the generator.

Use nylon lifting straps and connect them to the lifting eyes

on each corner of the base frame to avoid damaging the

enclosure.

General Information

5

5. Set the generator onto the pad so that the gravel bed extends

beyond the generator on all sides.

Make sure the generator is level within ½ inch.

6. The engine generator is to be grounded in accordance with

the NEC and local electrical codes.

7. Check the engine oil and, if necessary, add enough of the

recommended oil to bring the level up to the FULL mark on

the dipstick. Be careful not to overfill the crankcase.

CONVERTING TO LP VAPOR

1. The generator was configured for natural gas operation at the

factory. Switching over to LP Vapor is a simple procedure.

On models with a single cylinder engine, begin by

disconnecting and removing the battery if installed. Follow

all of the procedures and safety precautions in the generator

Owner’s Manual when removing and/or installing the battery.

2. Take the plastic T-handle fuel selector in the poly bag supplied

with the generator and locate the selector tab on the air box

cover. Insert the pin end into the hole in the selector tab

and pull outward to overcome spring pressure. Then twist

clockwise 90 degrees and allow the selector to return in once

aligned with the LP position.

3. On 10 kW units, open the roof, loosen the forward clamp

on the air inlet hose, and slide the hose away from the hose

fitting.

4. Slide the fuel selector pin on the carburetor out towards the

back of the enclosure.

5. Replace the inlet hose and tighten the clamp securely.

General Information

6

6. On all other models, simply remove the air cleaner cover and

slide the fuel selector pin outward from the natural gas to the

LP position.

INSTALLING & CONNECTING GAS LINES

1. Both natural gas and LP Vapor are highly volatile substances,

so strict adherence to all safety procedures, codes, standards

and regulations is essential.

Gas line connections should be made by a certified plumber

familiar with local codes. Always use AGA-approved gas pipe

and a quality pipe sealant or joint compound.

Verify the capacity of the natural gas meter or the LP tank in

regards to providing sufficient fuel for both the generator and

other operating appliances.

2. Most applications will require an external manual shutoff valve

on the fuel line.

3. When connecting the gas line to the generator, use the

provided section of UL Listed or AGA-approved flexible fuel

line in accordance with local regulations. The purpose of the

flexible fuel line is to ensure that vibration from the generator

does not cause a gas leak at one of the connection points, so

it’s important that the line be installed with as few bends as

possible. Installing a sediment trap is also recommended.

4. Never bend the flexible fuel line to avoid using an elbow.

Bending the flexible line decreases its ability to absorb

vibrations and defeats its purpose as well as constricts the

actual fuel flow.

General Information

7

5. After checking for leaks, check the gas pressure at the

REGULATOR to make sure there’s enough gas pressure for

generator operation. See Owner’s Manual for fuel pressure

specifications. If not within these limits, contact your local gas

supplier.

6. When finished checking the gas pressure, close the manual

shutoff valve.

EXTERNAL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

1. Drill the appropriate size hole and feed the conduit through the

hole.

2. Remove the knockout in the back of the connection box (if

used), feed the wires through the back of the box and secure

the conduit with the lock nut.

Seal the hole with silicone caulk. Don’t forget to caulk the hole

inside the house as well.

3. Mount the connection box (if used) so that it completely covers the

hole in the wall. Caulk around the sides and top of the box to ensure

a good seal.

Connect all wires to the lugs in the connection box (black to black,

red to red and white to white). Attach the green ground wire to

the ground screw and connect the two small plugs to their mating

receptacle ends.

4. Replace the protective cover plate and retaining screw, and

lock the connection box.
