OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
You want your generator to be ready when you need it -- so, it is important to perform the following steps once a month:
•
Start and run generator power through your transfer switch circuits.
•
Keep your fuel tank filled with fresh fuel.
With your Reliance Controls
Easy/Tran TF
installed, it is not necessary to turn off any of your load center breakers when starting
your generator, even when utility power is fully functional. This is because the double throw break-before-make action of the furnace
relay prevents feeding generator power to the utility and, conversely, prevents feeding utility power back to your generator.
A. Transferring from Utility Power to Generator Power in an Emergency
1.
Make sure that the toggle switch on the
Easy/Tran TF
is in the LINE position.
2.
Plug the appropriate extension cord into the appropriate receptacle on your generator.
3.
Plug the female end of the extension cord into power inlet box or the
Easy/Tran TF
, depending on the installation.
4.
Start your generator outdoors and let it warm to a point where it is running evenly.
5.
Turn the toggle switch on the furnace relay to the GEN position.
B. Transferring back to Utility Power When the Power Is Restored
1.
Move the toggle switch on the
Easy/Tran TF
back to the LINE position.
2.
Turn off your generator.
3.
Unplug the extension cord.
