Grounding

NOTICE

The generator set is shipped from the factory with the neutral and equipment

ground not bonded together.

Refer to local codes and standards for grounding procedures.

Battery

The generator set requires a 12V battery (negatively grounded) for engine cranking

and powering the electronic control system. When the generator set is running, the

battery is charged from the engine-driven battery alternator. When the set is not

running, an AC powered battery charger is needed to keep the battery charged.

As part of the installation, make sure that the battery is secured to the battery tray

with the strap provided.

To connect the battery:

1. Connect the positive battery terminal.

2. Connect the negative battery terminal.

3. Make sure that the black and red battery cable boots are in place.

Refer to the Model Specifications section for battery specifications.

An optional thermostatically controlled battery heater is available for more reliable

starting in ambient temperatures down to -40 °F (-40 °C).
