1.Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. 

1. Align the two inverters on a firm, flat and level 
    surface at a minimum 20 inch apart.

Parallel Operation (2 x GXS7100iRD Models)

Set up and Operation

NOTE:

Only connect two identical (same model) generators 
together for parallel operation.

Paralleling this generator to a generator that is not 
compatible can cause a low voltage output that can 
damage tools and appliances powered by the 
generator. Do not connect or disconnect parallel 
cables while the generator is running to avoid damage.
Parallel operation gives you the ability to link this 
generator to a compatible AIPOWER generator for 
combined running and starting power output. Use 
only the AIPOWER approved cables for parallel 
operation. For single generator operation, the parallel 
operation cable must be removed.

NOTICE

Fire and electrocution hazard. Never connect or 
disconnect the parallel cord leads when a generator 
is running. Do not parallel more than two generators. 
Use only AIPOWER generators for paralleling.

WARNING

2a. Gasoline to Propane/LPG

• Fully open the Propane/LPG cylinder knob.

2b.Propane/LPG to Gasoline

• Make certain the cylinder knob is fully closed.

• Connect the LPG hose to the propane fuel
    source. Connect the small end of the LPG 
    hose to the LPG inlet on generator and then
    snug with a wrench to prevent leakage. 

If you wish to use gasoline,

 the Starting Dial 

Switch should be in the ON position and the 
Propane Cylinder Valve should be CLOSED. 
Opening the Propane Cylinder Valve will immedi-
ately replace gasoline intake with propane intake.

If you wish to use propane,

 the Starting Dial 

Switch should be in the ON position and the 
Propane Cylinder Valve should be OPEN. Closing 
the Propane Cylinder Valve OR having an insuffi-
cient remaining level of propane in the cylinder 
will immediately replace propane intake with 
gasoline intake.
