Installation (cont’d)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Wheel and Handle Kit Installation
(Installation requires a socket wrench with 10mm, 14mm, and 17mm sockets).
1. Before adding oil or gasoline to the
engine, tip the generator slowly so
that the recoil and air filter are up.
2. Install the two wheels on the
generator using the (2) 17mm 2 ½”
bolts provided. Make sure the
valve stem is facing outward.
3. Tip the generator slowly so that the
recoil and air filter are down.
4. Install the crutches on the under
frame with the (4) nuts and 14mm
1” bolts provided.
5. Tip the generator slowly so that is
sits on both the wheels and
crutched.
6.
Install the handrails on the right
side of the frame using the (2) nuts
and 10mm 1 ¾” bolts provided.
Support 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
Note:
It is recommended that only a trained and licensed electrician perform this procedure.
Connect a #6 AWG grounding wire (not included) from the ground connector 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.
