Installation Factors to Consider
The illustrations shown in this manual are for typical
circumstances. They are meant to familiarize you with the
installation options available for the generator.
Federal and local codes, appearance, noise levels, fuel
types, and distances are installation factors that must be
considered. Remember that, as the distance increases
from the existing electrical service and gaseous fuel supply,
and the number of bends in the fuel supply increases,
compensations must be made for piping and wiring
materials. This is necessary to comply with local codes
and overcome electrical voltage drops and gaseous fuel
pressure drops.
The factors mentioned above will have a direct effect on the
overall price of the generator installation.
Delivery Inspection
Avoid damage from dropping, bumping, or collision with the
shipping carton.
Carefully inspect the generator for any damage that may
have occurred during shipment.

Installation
Before deciding on the final placement of the generator, the owner and installer must discuss and understand several
location guidelines. There are two critical safety concerns to be addressed - carbon monoxide poisoning and the risk of fire,
as follows:
WARNING Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an
odorless, colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide could result in death, serious
injury, headache, fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion,
seizures, nausea or fainting.
Operate this product ONLY outdoors in an area that will not
accumulate deadly exhaust gas.
Keep exhaust gas away from any windows, doors, ventilation
intakes, soffit vents, crawl spaces, open garage doors or other
openings that can allow exhaust gas to enter inside or be
drawn into a potentially occupied building or structure.
Carbon monoxide detector(s) MUST be installed and
maintained indoors according to the manufacturer’s instructions
and recommendations. Smoke alarms cannot detect carbon
monoxide gas.
WARNING
Exhaust heat or gases could ignite
combustibles or structures resulting in death or
serious injury.
Exhaust outlet end of standby enclosure must be at
least 5 ft (1.5 m) from any structure, shrubs, trees or
any kind of vegetation.
Standby enclosure must be at least 5 ft (1.5 m) from
windows, doors, any wall opening, shrubs, or
vegetation over 12 inches (30.5 cm) in height.
Standby enclosure must have at least 5 feet (1.5 m)
overhead clearance from any structure, overhang, or trees.
DO NOT place standby enclosure under a deck or
other type of structure that may confine airflow.
Smoke detectors MUST be installed and maintained
indoors according to the manufacturer’s instructions
and recommendations. Carbon monoxide alarms
cannot detect smoke.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

10 BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM
All fossil fuel burning products, such as standby
generators, emit carbon monoxide (CO) gas in the
engine exhaust. CO gas is odorless, colorless and
tasteless and is unlikely to be noticed until a person is
overcome. CO gas can kill you. It is required that the
following be included as part of the installation:
Install the generator outdoors in an area that
will not accumulate deadly exhaust gas.
DO NOT install the generator where exhaust
gas could accumulate and enter inside or be
drawn into a potentially occupied building or
structure.
Nearby structures may be exposed to the engine
exhaust from the unit and must be considered
when installing the standby generator.
Wind and air currents should be taken into
consideration when positioning the generator.
Place the generator in an area where winds will
carry the exhaust gas away from any potentially
occupied building or structure.
DO NOT place the standby generator in any area
where leaves or debris normally accumulate.
By law, many states require a fully operating
Carbon Monoxide (CO) detector in homes
and other structures occupied by people.
Carbon monoxide detectors MUST be
installed and maintained indoors according
to the manufacturer’s instructions and
recommendations. A carbon monoxide detector
is an electronic device that detects hazardous
levels of CO. When there is a buildup of CO,
the monitor will alert the occupants by flashing
a visual indicator light and sounding an alarm.
Smoke alarms cannot detect CO gas.
Direct the standby generator exhaust (A, shown
below) away from or parallel to the building or
structure. DO NOT direct the generator exhaust
towards a potentially occupied building, structure,
windows, doors, ventilation intakes, soffit vents,
crawl spaces, open garage doors, or other openings
where exhaust gas could accumulate and enter
inside or be drawn into a potentially occupied
building or structure.
The engine exhaust exits the top of the housing (A).

Planning the Fuel Installation
The information provided below is intended to assist
gaseous fuel system technicians in planning installations.
State and local codes may override some of these
recommendations. Consult with the local fuel supplier or fire
marshall if clarification is needed.
WARNING
Propane
and Natural Gas are extremely
flammable and explosive, which could cause
burns, fire or explosion resulting in death or
serious injury.
LP gas is heavier than air and will settle in low areas.
Natural gas is lighter than air and will collect in
high areas.
The slightest spark could ignite these fuels and cause
an explosion.
DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
A minimum of one accessible, approved manual
shutoff valve (F) shall be installed in the fuel supply
line within 6 ft (180 cm) of the generator.
Where local conditions include earthquake,
tornado, unstable ground, or flood hazards, special
consideration shall be given to increase strength and
flexibility of piping supports and connections.
Piping must be of the correct size to maintain the
required supply pressures and volume flow under
varying generator load conditions with all gas
appliances connected to the fuel system turned on
and operating.
Use a pipe sealant or joint compound approved for
use with NG/LP on all threaded fittings to reduce the
possibility of leakage.
Installed piping must be properly purged and
leak tested, in accordance with applicable codes
and standards.
The owner and installer should consult one another to review
any changes to the installation plan that might arise when
applying the following guidelines for fuel plumbing.
The piping material must conform to federal and local
codes, be rigidly mounted, and be protected against
vibration.
Piping should be protected from physical damage
where it passes through flower beds, shrub beds, and
other cultivated areas where damage could occur.
Install a flexible hose (B, at right) between the
generator fuel inlet port (A) and the rigid piping to
prevent thermal expansion and contraction from
causing excessive stress on the piping material.
NOTICE
The flexible fuel pipe is not to be installed
underground or in contact with the ground. The entire flexible
gaseous pipe must be visible for periodic inspection.
A union (C) or flanged connection shall be provided
downstream to permit removal of controls.
A manometer test port (D) should be installed for
vapor fuels. The port permits temporary installation
of a manometer to check whether the engine is
receiving the correct fuel pressure to operate efficiently
throughout its operating range. A digital manometer
(P/N 19495) is available at your service center for
vapor fuels only. For liquid propane any pressure
measurement instrument rated for liquid propane and
350 psi can be used. When the initial test runs are
completed, the manometer is removed and the port is
plugged.
For vapor fuels only: Where the formation of hydrates
or ice is known to occur, piping should be protected
against freezing. The termination of hard piping should
include a sediment trap (E) where condensate is not
likely to freeze.

Fuel Pipe Sizing
NFPA 54 and 58 are common resources. The installer
should consider the specific gravity of gas, compensate for
a nominal amount of restriction from bends and fittings, and
refer to federal and local codes for guidance.

Type of Fuel to Use
An important consideration affecting the entire
installation is the type of fuel to be supplied. For
proper engine function, use clean, dry fuel, free of
moisture or any particulate material. Using fuels
outside the recommended values may cause
performance problems.
Fuel Pressure
Fuel supply pressure at the generator fuel inlet port (or
vaporizer test port) should be 7 - 11 inch WC (17 - 28
mBar) at full load and with all gas appliances turned
on and operating. Maximum pressure drop from static
(engine not running) to full load is 0.5 inch WC (1.3
mbar). Maximum pressure with engine OFF at no load
is 13.85 inch WC (34.5 mbar). Liquid propane fuel
pressure at generator inlet should be 100-250 psi (690-
1725 kPa)
Power Loss
Engine power will decrease 3% for each 1,000 feet
(300 m) above sea level and 1% for each 10°F (5.6°C)
above 77°F (25°C).
WARNING
Fuel is extremely flammable and explosive,
which could cause burns, fire or explosion resulting in death
or serious injury.
The generator is equipped with automatic safety “fuel
shut-off valve(s).
DO NOT operate the equipment if the “fuel shut-off
valves are missing or inoperative.

Initial Start-up (No Load)
Before operating the generator or placing it into service,
inspect the entire installation carefully. Familiarize yourself
with the location of components and the location and
function of the generator controller. Begin testing the system
without any electrical loads connected, as follows:
1. Check engine oil. Add oil if needed. Refer to engine
manual for type of oil required.
2. Set the generator main circuit breaker to OFF (open)
position.
3. Start the generator. When the generator is started
for the first time, air in the gaseous fuel lines will be
purged. This may cause the engine to run rough for a
few minutes.
4. Listen for unusual noises, vibration, or other
indications of abnormal operation. Check for oil and
coolant leaks while the engine runs.
5. Let the engine warm up for 5 minutes.
6. Check generator output at line side of circuit breaker.
No-load voltage should be as shown in the chart
below. Frequency should be 59.8 - 60.2 Hz.
NOTE
If the no-load voltage is outside the specified
range, perform the automatic voltage regulator (AVR)
adjustment in Step 8. Do not proceed until the AC
voltage is within the specified range.
7. Check voltage output between each of the circuit
breaker connection lugs and the neutral lug. No-load
voltage should be as shown in the chart below.
8. If necessary, adjust the AVR voltage control (A) to
obtain the range specified. DO NOT adjust any of the
other alternator controls.
9. Ensure that the transfer switch is in the "UTILITY"
position and that there is no load present on the
generator.
10. Set the generator main circuit breaker to ON
(closed) position.
11. Use a phase rotation meter to verify that output at the
load side of the circuit breaker matches utility power.
On high-leg delta systems, ensure that the high-leg
position of the generator matches the high-leg position
of the utility power.
12. Stop the generator.
