INTRODUCTION

TESTING POLICY

Before any generator is shipped from the factory, it is fully 

checked for performance. The generator is loaded to its 

full capacity, and the voltage, current, and frequency are 

carefully checked.

Rated output of generator is based on engineering tests 

of typical units, and is subject to, and limited by, the 

temperature, altitude, fuel, and other conditions specified 

by the manufacturer of applicable engines.

INTENDED USES

This engine generator set has been designed primarily 

for portable heavy duty commercial use. This portable 

unit requires large quantities of fresh air for cooling the 

engine and generator. For safety, long life and adequate 

performance, these units should never be run in small 

compartments without positive fresh air flow.

RESTRICTED USES

DO NOT remove from the cradle assembly. Removal of the 

generator from the cradle assembly may cause excessive 

vibration and damage to the engine-generator set.

DO NOT operate and/or store the unit outside during 

inclement weather without adequate protection from the 

elements. Failure to do so will damage the unit. 

DO NOT install and operate this generator in a small 

compartment., i.e. generator compartments of vehicles, 

motor homes or travel trailers. These compartments 

will not allow enough free flow of fresh air to reach the 

engine generator set for cooling and will cause the unit to 

overheat, damaging both the engine and generator. Small 

compartments will also develop hot spots where there is 

very little air flow and may cause a fire.

PLEASE NOTE There are 3rd party companies making 

enclosures for generators that have been properly 

engineered. The use of these 3rd party enclosures is 

acceptable as long as they have been certified and meet 

current code.

DO NOT attempt to operate at 50 cycles. These units are 

designed and governed to operate at 60 cycles only.
