NOTE:

Even if the generator is running smoothly at this 

point, a drop in gas pressure indicates that the sup-

ply is barely adequate to supply the generator’s 

needs. Changes in the generator load, or additional 

gas demand by other appliances may affect the gen-

erator’s performance. Verify gas pressure and pipe 

sizing. Unhook the manometer and reinstall the port 

plug. 

GENERATOR TESTS UNDER LOAD

1.  Test the generator with electrical loads applied, start 

by placing all of the breakers on the Alternative Power 
Management System into the OFF or open position.

2.  The disconnect switch recommended to be installed at the 

generator input to the Alternative Power Management System 
should be switched to OFF or Open position.

3.  Place the main Circuit Breaker on the generator in the ON or 

closed position.

4.  Set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to MANUAL.  The 

generator should crank and start immediately.  Let the engine 
stabilize and warm up for a few minutes.

5.  Check voltage and frequency at the disconnect switch 

installed between the generator and the Alternative Power 
Management System.

6.  If the appropriate voltage and frequency are present, close the 

disconnect switch.

7.  Check voltage and frequency at the Alternative Power 

Management System by closing the breakers one at a time. (if 
applicable)

8.  Let the generator run under load for 20-30 minutes while 

listening for any unusual noises, vibration or other indications 
of abnormal operation such as oil leaks or overheating.

9.  With the generator carrying the entire priority load, recheck 

gas pressure to verify that it is at the same level it was before 
the generator was started.

10. When completed, open the disconnect switch and allow the 

generator to run at no load.

11. Place the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch into the OFF position.  

The generator will shut down.  Return to the disconnect 
switch and place it in the ON or closed position.

CHECKING AUTOMATIC OPERATION

1.  To check the automatic operation, place the AUTO/OFF/ON 

switch to the AUTO position.

2.  Verify the remote two-wire start test switch that’s installed 

near the Alternative Power Management System is set to the 
ON or closed position.  This will cause the generator to start 
automatically.

3.  With the generator running and powering loads, set the 

remote two-wire start test switch to the OFF or open position.  
In approximately one minute the generator will automatically 
shut down.
