UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS:
When unpacking the generator set, be sure to inspect it carefully
for freight loss or damage. If loss or damage is noted at the time
of delivery, require that the person making the delivery make note
of the loss or damage on the freight bill, or affix his signature
under the consignee’s memo of the loss or damage. Contact the
carrier for claim procedures.
When loss or damage is noted after delivery, segregate the
damaged material, and contact the carrier for claim procedures.
“Concealed Damage” is understood to mean damage to the
contents of a package which is not in evidence at the time of
delivery by the carrier, but which is discovered later. The carrier

in transit. The title to goods rests with the consignee when
generators are shipped fob factory, and only the consignee can
legally file a claim.

LIFTING THE GENERATOR SET
NOTICE - Personal Injury
To prevent injury to persons or equipment, observe the
following guidelines when lifting the generator:
Due to the different designs, configurations, options, weights,
site conditions, and available material handling equipment,
specific lifting instructions are not provided for each individual
generator set model. General guidelines provided are applicable
to the entire standby generator line. It is the responsibility of the
installing party to follow the lifting equipment’s operators manual
to prevent injury to personnel and damage to the generator.
Smaller Generator Sets may not require use of overhead lifting
equipment and may be placed on the pad with basic material
handling equipment, i.e. a forklift.
CAUTION : - Do not attempt to lift the generator set by the means
of the lifting eyes on the engine or generator end.
These lifting points are only for use during the manufacturing
process and are designed for lifting of the individual Generator
Set component.
***************
***** WARNING ****
***************
NEVER - attempt to lift the fuel tank while filled with fuel.
Sloshing of the fuel can cause a shift in the balance of the
fuel tank, making for a DANGEROUS, unbalanced lifting load.
If the generator was shipped on the fuel tank, use the lifting
points located on the fuel tank to move the entire Generator
Set into place. DO NOT place fuel in the tank prior to lifting.
