Section 4: Generator Placement

Generator Placement

All air-cooled generators come with a composite pad.
The composite pad elevates the generator and helps
prevent water from pooling around the bottom of the
generator (Figure 4-1). The generator and composite
pad can be placed on 4 in (102 mm) of pea gravel that is
compacted or on a concrete pad. Check local codes to
see what type of site base is required. If a concrete pad is
required, all federal, state and local codes should be
followed. Place the generator on its mounting pad and
position correctly as per the dimensional information
given in Site Preparation
NOTE: Generator must be level within 0.5 in (13 mm).
NOTE: If the composite pad is removed for concrete
mounting, the fascia kit will not fit.
Figure 4-1. Composite Pad
When mounting the generator to concrete, there are four
mounting holes available for securing the generator, if
codes require (two holes inside the front of the generator
compartment and two holes in the back). See
NOTE: The top of the generator carton has a template
that can be used to mark the concrete pad to pre-drill the
mounting holes.

Fascia Installation (If Applicable)

•
Locate the four (4) threaded black rubber bumpers
located in the Owner's manual bag.
• Remove the four (4) bumpers from the bag and
screw them into threaded holes located inside the
end pieces of the fascia (two each) opposite one
another (A).
• Once the bumpers are installed, snap one of the
end pieces into one of the front / rear pieces of
fascia. Repeat this action with the other two
remaining pieces of fascia.
NOTE: Do not assemble all four pieces together at this
point (B).
• Place both assemblies at the base of the generator
and fit the rubber bumpers into the lifting holes in
the generator base (C).
• Once aligned, snap together the two remaining
connection points.
