C A U T I O N : Operating voltage and frequency
requirements of all electronic equipment should

be checked prior plugging them into this
generator. Damage may result if the equipment
is not designed to operate within +/- 10% of voltage
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
and +/- 3 Hz of the rated values marked in the
generator´s nameplate. To avoid damage, always
have an additional no solid state load plugged into
the generator if only solid state equipment (such as
EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.
a television set) is used. A power line conditioner is
recommended for some solid state applications.
A power line conditioner should be used when running
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
one or more of the following solid state items:
• Garage door openers.
• Kitchen appliances with digital displays.
• Televisions.

To avoid back feeding into utility systems, isolation of
the residence electrical system is required.
2
Before temporary connection of the generator to the
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
residence system, turn off the main service disconnecting
device.
3
If your generator is to be used as a stand – by power
source in case of utility power failure, it should be

installed by a registered electrician and in compliance
with all applicable local electrical codes.
4
Proper use requires that a double throw transfer switch
be installed by licensed qualified electrician so that the
PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIEDAD EVANS.COM.MX PROPIE
building's electrical circuits may be safely switched
between utility power and the generator output; thereby
preventing back feed into the power utility's electrical
system.

WARNING : To avoid possible personal
injury or equipment damage, a register
electrician or an authorized service
representative should perform installation
and all service. Under no circumstances
should an unqualified person attempt to wire into
utility circuit.
Give the generator at least two feet of space from
any nearby wall to dissipate heat.
WARNING : To avoid back feeding into utility
system, isolation of the residence electrical
system is required. Before temporary
connection of a generator to the residence
electrical system turn off the main switch.
Before making permanent connections a double
throw transfer switch must be installed. To avoid
electrocution or property damage, only a trained
electrician should connect generator to residence
electrical system. California law requires isolation
of the residence electrical system before connecting
generator to residence electrical system.

GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
The National Electric Code requires that this product be
properly connected to appropriate earth ground to help
prevent electric shock. A ground terminal connected
to the frame of the generator has been provided for
this purpose. Connect a length of a heavy gauge (12
AWG min.) bare cooper cable between the ground lug
attached to the generator´s frame (identified with a label
with the ground symbol- see figure below) and a cooper
rod drawn 1 meter into the ground which should provide
a suitable ground connection. However, consult with
a local electrician to insure that local codes are being
adhered to.
WARNING: do not use a pipe carrying
combustible material as the ground
source.
