General Safety Information
(Continued)
Never mix oil with
gasoline for this
engine. This is a four cycle engine
designed to run on pure gasoline. Oil
is used for engine lubrication purposes
only.
HOT
SURFACES! Hot surfaces
will severely burn flesh. Do
not touch engine, muffler,
and alternator until the unit has fully
cooled.
Always
keep a
fire extinguisher accessible
while operating unit.
All installation, maintenance, repair
and operation of this equipment
should be performed by qualified
persons only in accordance with
national, state, and local codes.
Improper
use of
electric generators can cause
electric shock, injury, and
death! Take all precautions
described in this manual to reduce the
possibility of electric shock.
Verify that all components of
the generator are clean and in
good condition prior to operating
the generator. Be sure that the
insulation on all cables and power
cords is not damaged. Always repair
or replace damaged components
before operating the generator.
Always keep panels, shields, etc.
in place when operating the
generator.
Always wear dry protective
clothing, gloves, and insulated
footwear.
Always operate the generator in a
clean, dry, well ventilated area. Do
not operate the generator in wet,
rainy, or poorly ventilated areas.
Never use the generator as a work
surface.
If the generator
becomes wet for
any reason, be absolutely certain that
it is completely clean and dry prior to
attempting use!
Always shut the equipment off
prior to moving the unit.

Glossary of Terms

CC (Cubic Centimeter) - measure of
the engine's cylinder volume above the
piston when measured with the piston
fully retracted by the crankshaft.
Four Stroke Engine - an internal
combustion engine in which the piston
completes four separate strokes; intake,
compression, power, and exhaust during
two separate revolutions of the engine's
crankshaft.
RPM - Revolutions per Minute. Typically
this is for measuring engine crankshaft
or alternator rotor speed.
EPA - United States Environmental
Protection Agency.
CARB or ARB - California
Environmental Protection Agency Air
Resources Board.
NEC - National Electrical Code
UL - Underwriters Laboratories
CSA - Canadian Standards Association
NEMA - National Electrical
Manufacturers Association
Alternator - an electromechanical
device that converts mechanical energy
to electrical energy in the form of
alternating current.
Hertz (Hz) - a unit of frequency of
alternating current measured in cycles
per second.
Brushless - an alternator that creates
a magnetic field in the rotor that
induces electrical current in stationary
conductors which are wound as coils.
By contrast, brush type generators
commute electrical current from the
rotor to the stator through carbon
spring loaded brushes that make
electrical contact through commutator
bars.

GN5060, GN6575
AC (Alternating Current) - an
electrical current that reverses its
direction periodically or at a frequency.
DC (Direct Current) - an electrical
current that moves in one direction
therefore having a polarity.
Volt (V) - a measurement unit of work
needed to move an electric charge.
Ampere (A) or (I) - a unit to define the
rate of flow of electrical current.
Watt (W) - a unit of electrical power
calculated by W = V x I or
W = volts x amps.
Kilowatt (KW) - a unit of watt
measurement equal to W/1000. For
example: 5000W = 5KW.
Power Factor (PF) - the ratio of the
real power flowing to the load to the
apparent power in the circuit.
Kilo Volt-Ampere (KVA) - the unit
used for the apparent power in an
electrical circuit. KVA = KW/PF.
GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter) - a circuit breaker that
opens when leakage current is detected.
Thermal Circuit Breaker (CB) - a
circuit breaker that opens when current
exceeds the circuit breaker's current
limit.

Pre-Operation

LOCATION
Selecting the proper location can
significantly increase performance,
reliability and life of the generator.
For best results locate the generator in
an environment that is clean and dry.
Dust and dirt in the unit retain moisture
and increase wear of moving parts.
INSTRUCTIONS
Check engine oil level. Oil is NOT mixed
with the gasoline, however adequate
oil supply is necessary for proper
engine lubrication. Refer to the Engine
Manual for SAE, API and fill quantity
specifications. Unit is shipped without
oil in engine.
