generating set.
• DO NOT tamper with governed speed. Generating
set supplies correct rated frequency and voltage
when running at governed speed.
• DO NOT modify generating set in any way.
NOTICE Improper treatment of generating set could
damage it and shorten its life.
• Use generating set only for intended uses.
• If you have questions about intended use, contact
your authorized dealer.
