Supporting and Mounting
Mount the generator on a concrete slab capable of supporting the weight of the generator. The
slab must extend on all sides beyond the frame by at least one foot. Contact a cement contractor
for slab specifications if necessary. Attach the frame to the concrete slab using 3/8” diameter
expansion anchor bolts (not supplied).
Grounding

ELECTRICIAN PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE
Connect a #6 AWG grounding wire (not included) from the ground connector (8) on the generator
to a grounding rod (not included) that has been driven at least 24 inches deep into the earth. The
grounding rod must be an earth-driven copper or brass rod (electrode) which can adequately
ground the generator.
