INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Bryant home standby
generator system.
Every effort was expended to make sure that the
information and instructions in this manual are both
accurate and current at the time the manual was writ-
ten. However, the manufacturer reserves the right to
change, alter or otherwise improve this product(s) at
any time without prior notice.
READ THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY
If any portion of this manual is not understood, con-
tact the nearest Bryant Dealer for starting, operating
and servicing procedures.
Throughout this publication, and on tags and
decals affixed to the generator, DANGER, WARNING,
CAUTION and NOTE blocks are used to alert per-
sonnel to special instructions about a particular serv-
ice or operation that may be hazardous if performed
incorrectly or carelessly. Observe them carefully.
Their definitions are as follows:
After this heading, read instructions that, if not
strictly complied with, will result in serious person-
al injury, including death, or considerable property
damage.
After this heading, read instructions that, if not
strictly complied with, may result in personal injury
or property damage.
After this heading, read instructions that, if not
strictly complied with, could result in damage to
equipment and/or property.
NOTE:
After this heading, read explanatory statements
that require special emphasis.
These safety warnings cannot eliminate the hazards
that they indicate. Common sense and strict compli-
ance with the special instructions while performing
the service are essential to preventing accidents.
Four commonly used safety symbols accompany the
DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION blocks. The type
of information each indicates is as follows:
This symbol points out important safety infor-
mation that, if not followed, could endanger
personal safety and/or property of others.
This symbol points out potential explosion haz-
ard.
This symbol points out potential fire hazard.
This symbol points out potential electrical
shock hazard.
The operator is responsible for proper and safe use
of the equipment. Bryant strongly recommends that
the operator read this Owner's Manual and thor-
oughly understand all instructions before using this
equipment. Bryant also strongly recommends
instructing other users to properly start and operate
the unit. This prepares them if they need to operate
the equipment in an emergency.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
It is the operator's responsibility to perform all safety
checks, to make sure that all maintenance for safe
operation is performed promptly, and to have the
equipment checked periodically by a Bryant Dealer.
Normal maintenance service and replacement of parts
are the responsibility of the owner/operator and, as
such, are not considered defects in materials or work-
manship within the terms of the warranty. Individual
operating habits and usage contribute to the need for
maintenance service.
Proper maintenance and care of the generator ensure
a minimum number of problems and keep operating
expenses at a minimum. See a Bryant Dealer for serv-
ice aids and accessories.
Operating instructions presented in this manual
assume that the standby electric system has been
installed by a Bryant Dealer or other competent,
qualified contractor. Installation of this equipment is
not a “do-it-yourself” project.
HOW TO OBTAIN SERVICE
When the generator requires servicing or repairs,
contact a Bryant Dealer for assistance. Service tech-
nicians are factory-trained and are capable of han-
dling all of servicing needs.
When contacting a Bryant Dealer about parts and
service, always supply the complete model number
and serial number of the unit as given on the front
cover of this manual and on the DATA LABEL affixed
to the unit.
