Grounding; System - Firman P08004 El Manual Del Propietario

The density of air at high altitude is lower than at
sea level. Engine power is reduced as the air mass
and air-fuel ratio decrease. Engine power and
generator output will be reduced approximately
3.5% for every 1000 feet of elevation above sea
level. This is a natural trend and cannot be
changed by adjusting the engine. At high
increased exhaust emissions can also result due to
the increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio.
Other high altitude issues can include hard
starting, increased fuel consumption and spark
plug fouling. To alleviate high altitude issues other
than the natural power loss, FIRMAN can provide
a high altitude carburetor main jet. The alternative
main jet and installation instructions can be
obtained by contacting Customer Support. THERE
IS A PERMANENT CONDUCTOR BETWEEN Installation instructions are also available in the THE
GENERATOR (STATOR WINDING) AND THE Technical Bulletin area of the FIRMAN internet site. FRAME.
