Initial Start-Up (No Load)
The generator has been configured for NG operation at the
factory.
Fuel conversion, if needed, must be completed prior to
performing these steps. See
Fuel Conversion.
Before operating the generator or placing it into service,
inspect the entire installation carefully. Then begin testing
the system without any electrical loads connected, as
follows:
1.
Remove three screws (

to enclosure. Remove control box cover to expose
generator’s circuit breaker.
2.
Connect an accurate frequency meter to line side of
generator’s main circuit breaker.
3.
