OPERATION
This section of the manual will describe the operation
of the unit as a whole and in some detail various com-
ponents with which the customer will interface with.
The engine/alternator assembly is housed in its own
section of the enclosure. All service points for the
engine and alternator are accessible from the front of
the enclosure. I.E., oil fill/drain, oil filter, spark plugs,
air filter and for the alternator, brush access (see
Maintenance Section for Service Periods and
Procedures).
The alternator is driven by means of a pulley and
drive belt arrangement. The drive belt and pulleys are
warranted for the life of the generator. Drive belt ten-
sion was properly adjusted before the unit was
shipped from the factory. If there is a suspicion that
drive belt tension is incorrect, contact Generac or the
local service support contractor.
It is important that both air intakes for the engine
and alternator remain free from debris at all times.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The generator has been designed to make all electri-
cal connections to the unit simple and easy.
3.2.1 STARTING BATTERY
A 12V DC automotive type battery with a cold crank-
ing capacity of 525 Amps should be placed in the bat-
tery tray on the right hand side of the control panel
enclosure. Positive and negative cables are provided
for connection to the battery (Figure 3.1).
Figure 3.1 — Battery Cables
Servicing of the battery is to be performed or super-
vised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and
