Read entire Operator’s Manual before you 

attempt to setup, transport, or operate your 

new towable generator.

Your towable generator is ready for use after it has 

been properly setup with the recommended oil and fuel. 

If you have any problems with the setup of your towable 

generator, contact your authorized dealer 

Transporting

 

WARNING 

When loading and unloading the 

unit, be sure to use the lifting bail (

B

) located at the top 

center of the unit.

  •  Never get under the unit when lifted.

  •  Never lift the unit while in operation.

  •  If the unit is transported by truck, fasten it by 

chains at the front eye and rear stand. Also be 

sure ot place a set of chocks against the front and 

rear of each wheel.

Lifting the Generator

Before lifting the unit, make sure to check the lifting 

bail for any cracks, loose bolts, etc. 

  1.  Connect the hook (

A

) of the crane or shackle with 

the lifting bail (

B

) eye fitted at the top center of the 

unit. Ensure there is no person standing around 

the unit. Then perform hoisting operation.

  2.  Select a truck or crane with capacity sufficient 

for the weight and size of the unit. See 

Specifications

.

  3.  Never hang anything from generator while lifting. 

Bail is designed to carry only weight of generator.

Towing the Generator

 

WARNING  

Before towing the machine, make 

sure to check and confirm the following points. Failure 

to follow the instructions below, could result in serious 

injury or death.

  •  Proper tire air pressure.

  •  Tire lug nuts are not loose.

  •  Tires are not worn or damaged.

  •  Ensure that the end of the drawbar is securely 

connected to the coupler of the towing vehicle.

  •  Ensure there is no damage to the towing vehicle 

and the drawbar of the machine.

  •  Be sure to keep hands and fingers away from 

any part of the coupling device when coupling or 

uncoupling a drawing device to a draw bar.

  •  Be sure the height of the hitch is adjusted so 

that the trailer is level while connected to the tow 

vehicle.

  •  Make sure to drive the towing vehicle safely.

Set-Up

 

WARNING 

•  Exhaust gas from the engine is poisonous, and could 

cause death when inhaled.

•  Do not operate the unit indoors.

•  Do not position the exhaust gas outlet in the direction 

of a person or building.

The machine should be operated in the following 

conditons:

  •  Ambient temperature 5°F to 104°F (-5°C to 40°C).

  •  Humidity less than 85%.

  •  At altitudes lower than 3,281 ft (1000 meters) 

above sea level.

  •  Set up the machine in a place with good 

ventilation, lower temperature, and with 

surroundings as dry as possible.

  •  If more than two machines are placed parallel in 

operation, keep enough distance so that exhaust 

air from one machine does not affect the other.

  •  Set up the unit in an area where fresh air is 

always available. 

  •  Keep enough space around the unit for inspection 

and maintenance access.

 

WARNING  

The machine must be parked 

horizontally on a level surface. If the machine must be 

parked on a slope, place it across the grade to prevent 

rolling. Do not park on a slope exceeding 15°. Be sure 

to place wheel chocks (

C

) against the front and back 

of each wheel.
