ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS:
Refer to engine operating and maintenance instructions.
** NOTICE **
Regarding Engines - This manual covers the generator
portion of these units. See the separate engine instruc-
tion manual for engine-related problems, detailed engine
information and engine warranty.
** CAUTION **
Be sure to check the engine oil level frequently, as
specified in the engine manual.
The engine manufacturer has established an excellent
worldwide engine service organization; engine service is
available from a nearby authorized dealer or distributor;
check the yellow pages of the telephone directory under
“engines,” or ask the dealer from whom you purchased
the power plant.
The rated power of each engine-generator is limited by
the temperature, altitude and all other ambient conditions
specified by the engine manufacturer. Engine power will
decrease 3-1/2% for each 1000 ft. above sea level, and
will decrease an additional 1% for each 10 degrees
Fahrenheit above 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

INSTALLATION
General Information
*************
***** WARNING ****
*************
Before proceeding with the installation, be sure the
operation selector switch is in the stop position.
These engine/generator sets are designed to be
mounted on a concrete pad outdoors only. The
transfer switch is mounted next to your electrical entrance
or distribution panel inside the building. Consult a
qualified, licensed electrician or contractor to install and
wire the transfer switch. The installation must comply with
all national, state and local codes.
Before beginning the installation process recheck the
rating of the generator set and its transfer switch rating.
Be certain they can handle the intended load and are
compatible with the entrance voltage, phase and current
ratings. Plans for installation should be prepared with
proper attention to mechanical and electrical engineering
detail to assure a satisfactory system installation. The
information in this manual is offered only as a guide to
finalizing your installation plans.
