SAFETY INFORMATION 2. FIRE HAZARD Gasoline and other fuels present a hazard of possible explosion and/or fire. This engine generator set has been designed and manufactured to allow safe, reliable performance. Poor maintenance, improper or careless use can result in potentially deadly hazards; from electrical shock, exhaust gas asphyxiation, or fire. Please read all safety instructions carefully before installation or use. Keep these instructions handy for future reference.
properly engineered. The use of these 3rd party enclosures is acceptable as long as they have been certified and meet current code. e. Always avoid hot mufflers, exhaust manifolds, and engine parts. They can cause severe burns instantly. f. The use of the engine-generator set must comply with all national, state, and local codes. DO NOT attempt to operate at 50 cycles. These units are designed and governed to operate at 60 cycles only.
Failure to maintain the engine oil at the proper level will result in serious engine damage. Split-Phase (SP) type. The chart below shows the approximate current required to start and run various types and sizes of 120 volt 60 cycle electric motors under average load conditions.

loaded, and as a result the speed drops slightly. This slight decrease in speed, together with the voltage drop within the generator itself, results in a slightly lower voltage when the generator is loaded to its full capacity than when running no load. The slight variation in speed also affects the frequency of the output current. This frequency variation has no appreciable effect in the operation of motors, lights and most appliances.
the generator receptacles. Before plugging in all the tools and cord sets, recheck the rating of the generator set. Be sure it can handle the intended load and is compatible with the voltage, phase, and current ratings. ‘Hard Wiring’ this unit directly into a temporary construction site electrical system is NOT A SIMPLE DO-IT-YOURSELF JOB. For your safety all wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and conform to the National Electric Code and comply with all state and local codes and regulations.
installed by a licensed electrician according to all applicable codes. The electrician will move the critical circuits to be powered during the outage to the emergency panel. Keep in mind only a limited amount of amperage is available from the generator set. Some circuit breakers may still have to be turned off to prevent an overload on the generator during the initial start up. See the nameplate on your generator for the amperage capabilities of your unit. c.
gerous to the operator and destructive to the equipment. TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS CLEANING PROBLEM (SYMPTOMS) POSSIBLE Remove dirt and debris with a cloth or brush. DO NOT use high pressure spray to clean either the engine or the generator. This high pressure spray could contaminate the fuel system and the generator components. 1. Keep the air inlet screen on both the engine and generator free of any dirt or debris to insure proper cooling.
