Section 1
INTRODUCTION: Thank you for purchasing this compact, high performance, air-cooled, engine-driven stationary automatic standby generator
set. Every effort was made to make sure that the information and instructions in this manual were both accurate and current at the time the man-
ual was written. However, the manufacturer reserves the right to change, alter or otherwise improve this product or manual at any time without
prior notice.
This generator is designed to automatically supply electrical power to operate critical loads during a utility power failure. This unit is factory
installed in an all-weather metal enclosure and is intended exclusively for outdoor installation. This generator will operate using either vapor
withdrawn liquid propane (LP) or natural gas (NG).
NOTE: When properly sized, this generator is suitable for supplying typical residential loads such as Induction Motors (sump pumps,
refrigerators, air conditioners, furnaces, etc.), Electronic Components (computer, monitor, TV, etc.), Lighting Loads and Microwaves.
READ THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY: The operator is responsible for proper and safe use of this equipment. The manufacturer strongly recom-
mends that the operator read and thoroughly understand the instructions and contents of this owner's manual before attempting to use the equip-
ment. If any portion of this publication is not understood, contact the nearest Authorized Service Dealer for starting, operating and servicing
procedures.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: The manufacturer suggests that this manual and the rules for safe operation be copied and posted near the
unit's installation site. Safety should be stressed to all operators and potential operators of this equipment.
SAFETY: Throughout this manual, and on tags and decals affixed to the unit, DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE blocks are used to
alert personnel to special instructions about a particular operation, function or service that may be hazardous if performed incorrectly or care-
lessly. Observe them carefully. Their definitions are as follows:
INDICATES A HAZARDOUS SITUATION OR ACTION WHICH, IF NOT AVOIDED, WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Indicates a hazardous situation or action which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTE: Notes contain additional information important to an operation or procedure.
Four commonly used safety symbols accompany the DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION blocks. The type of information each indicates is as
follows:
* This symbol points out important Safety Information that, if not followed, could endanger personal safety and/or
property of others.
This symbol points out a potential Explosion Hazard.
$
This symbol points out a potential Fire Hazard.
!
This symbol points out a potential Electrical Shock Hazard.
+
These "Safety Alerts" cannot eliminate the hazards that they signal. Strict compliance with these special instructions, plus common sense are
major accident prevention measures.
